Will New York Giants OL Jermaine Eluemunor play vs. New Orleans Saints?
The New York Giants will battle the New Orleans Saints on Sunday afternoon, and the status of OL Jermaine Eluemunor is uncertain.
The New York Giants are set to face the New Orleans Saints at MetLife Stadium on Sunday in Week 6. However, the Giants will be without several key players including cornerbacks Colton Hood, safety Tyler Nubin, and tight end Theo Johnson, as well as the status of three other starters. Left tackle Andrew Thomas and linebacker Abdul Carter are expected to play despite missing two practices, but the main concern is right tackle Jermaine Eluemunor, who suffered a calf injury in their Week 5 game against the Washington Commanders.
Initially, his injury was considered week-to-week, but the team has become more optimistic as the week progressed. Eluemunor limited his practice on Friday, earning a questionable designation for Sunday's game. As of Saturday, the Giants did not rule out Eluemunor playing, making him a game-time decision. John Harbaugh, the Giants' head coach, did not provide definitive information on Eluemunor's status.
Two second-year swing tackles, Marcus Mbow and another unnamed player, are likely to fill in for Eluemunor if he misses the game.
