Coming off of a 28-3 beatdown at the hands of the Philadelphia Eagles, the New York Giants are licking their wounds but getting an extra day to do so ahead of the Week 8 Monday Night Football matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers at Acrisure Stadium.
After being without punter Jamie Gillan and cornerback Adoree’ Jackson against the Eagles, the Giants saw Jackson sit out practice Thursday in the first day of practice reports for the week ahead, while Gillan continues to recover from a hamstring injury and missed practice as well.
Star nose tackle Dexter Lawrence, who continues to dominate the competition, is pushing through a hip injury that has limited him in recent weeks, while outside linebacker Brian Burns is still dealing with a groin injury.
