With game day looming against the 5 and 0 New England Patriots who are currently in first place in the AFC East, the New York Giants knew that they had to do something to help make sure that they could have at least a fighting chance in tonight’s game.
With injuries seeming to plague the New York Giants at every position, roster moves had to be made, especially at the running back position. With starter Saquon Barkley still out after sustaining a high ankle sprain in Week 3’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Wayne Gallman ruled out after suffering a concussion in Week 4 against the Washington Redskins, the New York Giants have to rely on Elijhaa Penny and Jon Hilliman for the rushing game.
