Will Tracy get throughout the protocol in time to play vs. Washington?
Offensive tackle Josh Ezeudu had his knee drained and will not practice Wednesday for the New York Giants, head coach Brian Daboll said Wednesday. Daboll said that Chris Hubbard, who replaced Ezeudu as the starting left tackle against the Pittsburgh Steelers, will fill that role again this week against the Washington Commanders.
The Giants also added offensive tackle Garret Greenfield, an undrafted rookie free agent out of South Dakota State, to their practice squad. Greenfield spent the preseason with the Seattle Seahawks.
Running back Tyrone Tracy (concussion protocol) was expected to work on the side with trainers on Wednesday. With this being a short week as Tracy sustained his concussion on Monday night, it compresses the time frame Tracy has in which to get through the league’s concussion protocol. We will see if he ramps up his activity on Thursday and Friday.
Defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence will receive a rest day.
Punter Jamie Gillan, who has now missed three games with a left hamstring injury, will continue to be held out of practice.
Other players Daboll said will not practice are special teamer Matthew Adams, wide receiver/special teamer Bryce Ford-Wheaton and punt/kickoff returner Ihmir Smith-Marsette.
