After missing over a year of action due to a gruesome leg injury, Giants offensive lineman Nick Gates is being added to the team’s active roster Wednesday, per Giants Country. The news was first reported by ESPN’s Jordan Raanan.

During a Week 2 matchup against Washington last season, Gates broke his left fibula and tibia and the injury resulted in his leg facing in the wrong direction. He would go on to have seven surgeries, including a setback during the spring that forced the rod in his leg to be removed.
