Giants injury update: the latest on LB Brian Burns
The New York Giants face another defensive setback as a key pass rusher is likely to miss time with an ankle injury following Monday’s loss.
After a tough 28-6 loss to the Los Angeles Rams, the New York Giants are now faced with another injury concern as linebacker Brian Burns was absent from Wednesday's practice due to an ankle injury. ESPN's Adam Schefter reported that Burns is not expected to require surgery but is likely to miss some time. The Giants have already suffered a significant loss with quarterback Jaxson Dart's season ending following a serious knee injury.
With Burns' absence, the Giants may see an increased workload for linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux, who will have to step up along the defensive edge. Meanwhile, the team is also keeping an eye on left tackle Andrew Thomas and wide receiver Malik Nabers, who both participated in practice despite recent injuries. The uncertainty surrounding Brian Burns adds another layer of concern for the Giants as they prepare for Sunday's matchup against the Tennessee Titans.
