The New York Giants returned to the practice field on Wednesday ahead of a Week 6 game against the Buffalo Bills in Orchard Park and all eyes were on quarterback Daniel Jones.
Despite head coach Brian Daboll expressing optimism that Jones could play on Sunday, and DJ sharing similar sentiments, the news was anything but positive.
Jones was unable to practice because his neck was “more sore” than the day prior. Compounding matters, multiple other players also missed practice due to injury, including offensive linemen Andrew Thomas, Matt Peart and John Michael Schmitz, wide receiver Wan’Dale Robinson, tight end Darren Waller and linebacker Azeez Ojulari.
In total, the Giants were able to field just six offensive linemen from their 53-man roster during Wednesday’s practice.
The Giants’ full Wednesday injury report can be found below:
Did not participate: QB Daniel Jones (neck), LT Andrew Thomas (hamstring), OL John Michael Schmitz (shoulder), OL Matt Peart (shoulder), LB Azeez Ojulari (ankle), LB Micah McFadden (ankle), TE Darren Waller (groin), WR Wan’Dale Robinson (knee/rest)
