Some notes

  • Just as on Wednesday, defensive end Mike Danna (quad) and cornerback Kristian Fulton (ankle) were held out on Thursday.
  • There was some welcome news, however: wide receiver Jalen Royals (knee) and tackle Josh Simmons (illness) — both limited on Wednesday — were upgraded to full participation on Thursday.
  • There was one step backwards: tackle Jawaan Taylor (knee / ankle) was downgraded to limited.
  • The big story for the Giants is left tackle Andrew Thomas (foot), who might be ready to make his season debut for New York on Sunday. He continues to be limited in practice, but the team is watching him closely.
  • On Thursday, head coach Brian Daboll said that he wants to make Thomas a full participant on Friday. “I think it’ll go all the way up to tomorrow, see where he’s at, see how he feels,” Daboll said. “He has to feel the right way.”
  • Otherwise, linebacker Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles (calf) was upgraded to limited participation on Thursday. Just as on Wednesday, linebacker Chauncey Golston (ankle) and linebacker Darius Muasau (concussion / eye) were held out on Thursday.
  • There were no other changes in New York’s Thursday injury report.
