Dexter Lawrence, Adoree’ Jackson not practicing
The New York Giants returned to the practice field on Thursday afternoon in preparation for a Week 8 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers at Acrisure Stadium in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Despite the extra day off, head coach Brian Daboll delivered some unfortunate injury news before players took the field. Of note, nose tackle Dexter Lawrence and cornerback Cor’Dale Flott were sidelined.
Although Lawrence was getting more of a rest day, Daboll said Flott would not practice until at least Friday but more than likely, will sit out on Monday Night Football.
“I wouldn’t be able to say week to week. We’ll see where he is tomorrow,” he said. “Probably, I don’t know if he’d be able to make it this week, but I’m not going to rule him out because he hasn’t been ruled out to me.”
With Adoree’ Jackson still sidelined, that created an uphill climb for the Giants.
Meanwhile, punter Jamie Gillan, who has missed the past two games with a hamstring injury, took a step forward in his recovery and worked with trainers on the side.
The Giants’ full Thursday injury report can be found below:
