The best news on the final New York Giants injury report prior to Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Chargers is that left tackle Andrew Thomas, wide receiver Malik Nabers and tight end Theo Johnson — all key offensive players — are not on it.
Thomas, who played 28 snaps last week in his season debut after undergoing Lisfranc surgery, should handle an increased workload this week. Whether or not he will play the full game at left tackle or will be on a limited snap count again remains to be seen.
Nabers, the team’s best wide recevier, missed practice Wednesday with a shoulder injury. Johnson, the starting tight end, missed Wednesday’s practice with a toe injury.
Placekicker Graham Gano (groin), edge defender Chauncey Golston (ankle) and running back Tyrone Tracy (shoulder) will miss the game. Younghoe Koo, signed to the practice squad after being released by the Atlanta Falcons, will likely replace Gano. Cam Skattebo will be the lead running back.
Defensive tackle Rakeem Nunez-Roches could miss a third straight game with a foot injury.
