Latest news and updates about the Giants
The Giants announced they are activating CB Paulson Adebo from injured reserve and placing LB Tremaine Edmunds on the list. New York is also elevating WR Jalin Hyatt and S Raheem Layne. Adebo suffered a knee injury in Week 1 and was subsequently placed on injured reserve.

The Indianapolis Colts could be approaching a major roster shake-up after a disappointing start to the 2026 NFL season. With general manager Chris Ballard already out and the November 10 trade deadline approaching, questions are growing about whether the franchise will hold on to its biggest stars or start collecting assets for the future. Jonathan […] The post Giants and Vikings Emerge as Potential Trade Suitors for Colts RB Jonathan Taylor appeared first on Gridiron Heroics .
Andrew Thomas is cleared to practice but still carries a limited groin status as the Giants head into the Houston game. Rookie quarterback J.J. McCarthy will start, while left tackle Thomas returns to give the offense a viable passing plan, despite Jermaine Eluemunor and Marcus Mbow remaining questionable. Houston’s defense has allowed just 3.4 yards per rush, so New York can’t rely on a ground‑and‑poke approach. Coach must balance manageable throws with selective runs, using Thomas’s presence to bolster protection while still adjusting to the Texans’ front.
The New York Giants fell 34-27 to the New Orleans Saints in Week 6, and the postgame focus landed on running back Cam Skattebo. He recorded no carries or receptions, and the questions followed him into the new week. Giants fans wanted answers about his role and his grip on the football. Now, Skattebo has […] The post Giants’ Cam Skattebo Owns Up to Issue That Nearly Derailed His Breakout Season appeared first on Gridiron Heroics .
The New York Giants will be without safety Jevon Holland and tight end Theo Johnson for their Week 7 road matchup against the Houston Texans.

The NFL trade market ignites for Colts star RB Jonathan Taylor as the November deadline looms. At 2-4, Indianapolis has racked up 492 yards and seven touchdowns in six games, but interim GM Ed Dodds must decide whether to cash in on Taylor's 2028 contract. The New York Giants, fresh from releasing Najee Harris, emerge as front‑runners, hoping to pair Taylor with Cam Skattebo and Tyrone Tracy Jr. to boost J.J. McCarthy under head coach John Harbaugh’s physical scheme. Seattle also surfaces as a dark‑horse, willing to outbid rivals for a game‑changing back. With multiple teams circling, the Giants’ path to East Rutherford remains far from certain.
Head coach John Harbaugh says Tyrone Tracy Jr. earns a bigger role in the Giants’ backfield after Najee Harris is released and Cam Skattebo is benched for ball security. Tracy’s breakout Week 6 performance against the Saints—two touchdowns on eight touches—proved his elite speed, physical running style and pass‑catching ability. With the Giants sitting 3‑2‑1, Harbaugh expects Tracy to complement rookie quarterback J.J. McCarthy as a dual‑threat option, joining a three‑man rotation with Skattebo and veteran Devin Singletary for the Week 7 showdown at Houston.
The New York Giants, reeling from a season‑ending injury to Tremaine Edmunds, are chasing three veteran linebackers to shore up their defense. Free‑agent Bobby Wagner, 36, posted 162 tackles and 4.5 sacks in 17 games for Washington last season. Former Bills linebacker Matt Milano is linked thanks to GM Joe Schoen’s prior draft connection, though his injury history poses a risk. The Giants also eye trade candidate Daiyan Henley from the winless Chargers, praised for his coverage speed and blitz versatility. All three could mentor rookie sensation Arvell Reese, the first‑round pick making an immediate impact.
The New York Giants will be down 2 starters on Sunday against the Houston Texans.
Winston's $12.24 million guarantee is unchanged by the McCarthy start. His Spotrac-listed incentives depend on full-season snap share, now 73.6%.
Tremaine Edmunds and Greg Newsome II are out and Theo Johnson is doubtful for Sunday at Houston. Andrew Thomas is not listed, and the Texans ruled out David Montgomery.

The New York Giants are getting reinforcements in their secondary ahead of their Week 7 road matchup against the Houston Texans, with cornerback Paulson Adebo set to return from injured reserve. ESPN’s Jordan Raanan reported Saturday on X, formerly known as Twitter, that New York will activate Adebo later in the day. “Paulson Adebo will […] The post Giants activating Paulson Adebo from IR ahead of Week 7 vs. Texans appeared first on ClutchPoints .
The New York Giants, sitting atop the NFC East at 3-2-1 ahead of Week 7, are intensifying trade talks for Indianapolis Colts star running back Jonathan Taylor as they seek RB depth after cutting veteran Najee Harris. Sources say the Colts will assess the market before the Nov. 10 deadline, with no player officially off‑limits, but they have not yet opened formal discussions. Analysts suggest a deal could materialize only in the final weeks of the trade window, keeping Giants fans watching for a potential late‑season acquisition.
The New York Giants have lost linebacker Tremaine Edmunds for the rest of the season after a shoulder injury and a torn chest muscle forced him out, according to The Athletic and ESPN. Edmunds, who posted 50 tackles and two sacks in six games, was a key defensive snap‑caller and mentor to rookie Arvell Reese. Micah McFadden moves into the middle‑linebacker role, testing the Giants' claim of three starting‑caliber inside linebackers ahead of a matchup with the Houston Texans on Oct. 24. The team sits at 3‑2‑1 with a bye the following week, giving coaches a chance to reshuffle the defense.
Giants head coach John Harbaugh explains the Week 7 release of veteran RB Najee Harris, saying the move was about roster math and giving the remaining backs a clear runway rather than performance. After six weeks, the backfield shrinks from four to a three‑man rotation—Cam Skattebo, Tyrone Tracy Jr., and Devin Singletary—to support new starter J.J. McCarthy and simplify offensive schemes ahead of the Houston Texans game.
The New York Giants lose their top tackler as linebacker Tremaine Edmunds is sidelined for the season with a shoulder injury, according to Dan Duggan of The Athletic. Edmunds led the team with 50 tackles and tied for most sacks (two) after signing a three‑year, $36 million deal. His departure hits an already sputtering run defense that has allowed 500 rushing yards in the past three weeks and sits 29th in the league. The Giants also will miss cornerback Greg Newsome II (concussion) against the Houston Texans, making them even bigger underdogs.
The Saints head to Paris for a crucial showdown with the Steelers after a must‑win victory over the Giants. New Orleans’ pass protection, which has yielded just one sack from four top rushers, now faces T.J. Watt’s 4.5‑sack season and a Steelers front seven that blitzes only 26% of the time, making quarterback Tyler Shough’s stay upright vital. Meanwhile, Pittsburgh’s 14th‑ranked run defense has limited backs like Bucky Irving to 2.3 yards per carry, a stark test for a Saints rushing attack that posted 175 yards against the Giants, highlighted by Kendre Miller’s 70 yards. Defensively, New Orleans must contain Aaron Rodgers, who’s delivering three‑plus‑TD games despite four recent interceptions, to secure a third win.
The Steelers face the Saints Sunday at 9:30 a.m. EST in Paris, with FanDuel listing Pittsburgh as 3‑point favorites (-168) and a 44.5 total. The preview highlights three value props: Jaylen Warren anytime TD at -120, Aaron Rodgers over 0.5 rushing yards at -140, and rookie Germie Bernard over 53.5 receiving yards at -114. All three combine for a +475 parlay. The article also notes the Saints’ weak run defense and key Steelers injuries, making the matchup a prime betting opportunity.
Two NFC teams have emerged as potential trade partners.
The Texans aim to stretch their two‑game winning streak against the Giants on Oct. 23, but key injuries loom. DB Jalen Pitre, RG Reed Blankenship, RB David Montgomery and OT Blake Fisher are out, while WR Tank Dell—absent for nearly two years—looks to return as a questionable. Other starters see limited issues, and the team will rely on Woody Marks to fill Montgomery’s void. Despite missing defensive starters, Houston remains the favorite and hopes to clinch a third straight win at home.
The Giants may finally test second‑year tight end Thomas Fidone II after injuries sideline Chris Manhertz (calf) and limit Theo Johnson (neck). Though listed with a shoulder issue, Fidone practiced fully Thursday, putting him ahead of the two injured players on the depth chart. Fidone has no NFL catches in two seasons, but posted 61 receptions for 633 yards at Nebraska, prompting the author to suggest a limited, defined receiving role rather than a full workload. A small package could give New York a useful option for J.J. McCarthy without jeopardizing blocking duties, but no snap count changes have been announced yet.
The New York Giants head into Week 7 with a 3‑2‑1 record and face the Houston Texans on Sunday, but a slew of injuries clouds their chances. Starting quarterback J.J. McCarthy replaces Jaxson Dart, who is on IR after a knee injury in Week 2, while veteran Jameis Winston is out. Key defensive losses include Brian Burns (torn ACL), Tremaine Edmunds (season‑ending chest/shoulder tear), Paulson Adebo (knee) and Chauncey Golston (neck). Offensive tackles Andrew Thomas and Jermaine Eluemunor return limited, but are questionable, as is tight end Theo Johnson (neck). Cornerback Greg Newsome II is out with a concussion, while Jevón Holland is questionable. The Giants hope returning players Adebo, Deonte Banks and Colton Hood can bolster a battered secondary.
