Giants injury report: Jermaine Eluemunor misses practice
The New York Giants took the field on Friday for their second of three practices ahead of a Week 8 game against the Pittsburgh Steelers at Acrisure Stadium.
Beforehand, head coach Brian Daboll delivered some unfortunate injury news and revealed that right tackle Jermaine Eluemunor would not participate as the result of a groin injury.
Although Daboll wouldn't rule Eluemunor out for Monday night, embattled offensive tackle Evan Neal stepped in and assumed first-team reps on the right side.
Joshua Ezeudu continues taking first-team reps at left tackle.
"Hopeful," Daboll said when asked if Eluemunor would play against the Steelers.
The Giants' full Friday injury report can be found below:
Did not participate: LB Brian Burns (groin/Achilles), CB Adoree' Jackson (neck), LB Ty Summers (hamstring/ankle), P Jamie Gillan (hamstring), OL Jermaine Eluemunor (hip)
Limited participant: NT Dexter Lawrence (hip), CB Cor'Dale Flott (groin), CB Tre Hawkins (ankle)
