Giants injuries: RT Jermaine Eluemunor expected to play vs. Eagles

The New York Giants find themselves dealing with a rash of injuries as they prepare to take on the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday Night Football.

The two most significant are easily Malik Nabers (ACL) and Darius Slayton (hamstring), but uncertainty regarding RT Jermaine Eluemunor was looming as well. Eluemunor was listed as “questionable” this week with a back injury, however Jordan Ranaan of ESPN is reporting that the right tackle will play against the Eagles.

Three-ish days is a quick turnaround for a big man dealing with a back injury, but Eluemunor is a notoriously tough player.

This is also likely a relief for Giants fans, who would likely be less than enthused to see James Hudson III or Evan Neal take the field at right tackle.

On the Eagles’ side of things, they’ll be without OG Landon Dickerson (ankle) and TE Grant Calcaterra (oblique). We’ll update with the full injury reports and game statuses when we get them.
