NY Giants-New Orleans Saints inactives: RT Jermaine Eluemunor won't play

Giants' starting right tackle will sit this one out.

East Rutherford, New Jersey reports that for their upcoming game against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, New York Giants right tackle Jermaine Eluemunor will not be participating. The injured Eluemunor was replaced by Marcus Mbow during the previous Sunday's game against the Washington Commanders. Mbow is expected to start at right tackle, with rookie J.C.

Davis joining as the swing tackle. Left tackle Andrew Thomas (groin) and edge defender Abdul Carter (calf) are also listed as active despite being held out of recent practices. Reports from earlier on Sunday indicated that veteran running back Cam Skattebo would start instead of newcomer Najee Harris. Skattebo, however, has a history of fumbling the ball, having committed four fumbles in just five games this season.

In contrast, Harris has fumbled six times in 1,223 career touches, averaging one fumble every 203.8 attempts. The Giants have made changes to their defensive line, with rookie Bobby Jamison-Travis activated for the first time, while experienced player C.J. Okoye is now inactive. On the offensive side, QB Tyler Shough from the Saints is reportedly playing with two broken bones in his left hand, while New York's QB Jake Haener is serving as an emergency third quarterback.
