New York Giants head coach Brian Daboll has raised concerns about the status of key star ahead of sunday’s game against the Carolina Panthers in Munich.
The New York Giants are facing uncertainty over the status of safety Jason for their Sunday matchup against the Carolina Panthers in Munich, with head coach Brian Daboll expressing concern.
Pinnock was added to the injury report on Thursday with an abdominal strain. He participated in Thursday’s practice on a limited basis, and his availability for Sunday’s game will depend on how he progresses through Friday’s practice and Saturday’s walk-through.
If Pinnock is unable to play, Dane Belton is expected to start in his place.
In other injury updates, left tackle Chris Hubbard, who missed Thursday’s practice due to illness, is expected to be ready for Sunday’s game against the Panthers.
Kicker Graham Gano, who has been on injured reserve since Week 2 but had his 21-day practice window activated this week, is also trending toward being activated and could play on Sunday. Meanwhile, punter Jamie Gillan, who has been sidelined with a left hamstring injury for the last four weeks, is expected to return as well.
On a more definite note, receiver Darius Slayton, who is dealing with a concussion, has been ruled out for the game and will not be making the trip to Munich.
