  "account": "Miami Dolphins and New York Giants engaged in a joint practice on Thursday in Miami Gardens, Florida. During the session, Giants rookie right guard Francis Mauigoa sustained a temporary nerve injury in the neck and shoulder area. The 10th overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft was escorted to the Baptist Health Complex medical center and left the practice early. Giants head coach John Harbaugh reassured that Mauigoa, who was listed as the starting right guard for the Giants in their unofficial 2026 depth chart, sustained a minor \"stinger-type\" injury and should recover fully. Backup guards Aaron Stinnie, Evan Neal, and Brendan James were named as the second-string options. The Giants also parted ways with right tackle Jermaine Eluemunor due to his involvement in a fight with Dolphins players. The Giants face the Dolphins in a preseason game on Saturday, followed by a showdown with the New York Jets and a home game against the Dallas Cowboys in their regular season opener.",
