Giants’ Jamie Gillan out, Jermaine Eluemunor questionable vs. Steelers

The New York Giants wrapped up their week of practice on Saturday afternoon in East Rutherford and despite some players taking a step forward, the team will be shorthanded against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday Night Football.

The good news is that linebacker Brian Burns (groin/Achilles), who is as tough as they come, returned to the field and head coach Brian Daboll indicated he will play in Week 8.

Daboll also expressed optimism that right tackle Jermaine Elueminor would suit up on Monday night despite missing his second straight day of practice.

“He did a walkthrough. I think he’ll be okay. But I can’t guarantee it,” Daboll said.

But that’s about where the good news ended and the bad news began.

Cornerback Adoree’ Jackson will not play again this week and the Giants could also be without several of his counterparts, Tre Hawkins and Cor’Dale Flott.

“He’s still got the neck. I don’t think he’ll make it,” Daboll said. “The other two guys, not sure if they will.”

Punter Jamie Gillan will also sit this one out.

Full injury reports for both the Giants and Steelers can be found below:
