Giants wide receiver Calvin Austin III out for season with ACL tear
New York Giants wide receiver Calvin Austin III is expected to miss the entire 2026 season due to an ACL tear he sustained at practice.
Pittsburgh Steelers wide receiver Calvin Austin III is set to miss the entire 2026 season after tearing his anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) during a practice session in East Rutherford, New Jersey. The 31-year-old caught three touchdowns last season and was the team's top slot receiver. Backup wide receivers include Malachi Fields, Odell Beckham Jr., and Dalen Cambre, among others.
Austin's injury means he will not be available for the Giants' preseason finale against the New York Jets on Friday or their regular season opener on September 13 against the Dallas Cowboys at MetLife Stadium.
