Here is the latest news and possible return dates for injured Giants players…
Oct. 31, 1:08 p.m.
Running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. returned to practice on Thursday, wearing a red, non-contact jersey.
Tracy left Monday night’s loss to the Steelers after hitting his head on the turf, and remains in concussion protocol.
However, head coach Brian Daboll told reporters on Thursday that Tracy was “trending in the right direction.”
If all goes well, Tracy should be cleared for the Giants’ Week 9 matchup against the Commanders on Sunday.

Head coach Brian Daboll provided a few injury updates ahead of Wednesday’s practice as the Giants prepare to host the Washington Commanders on Sunday.
Running back Tyrone Tracy Jr., who had a breakout game against the Steelers with 145 yards and a touchdown on 20 carries, remains in the concussion protocol and will not practice. Neither will tackle Josh Ezeudu, who is dealing with a knee injury.
Meanwhile, Dexter Lawrence will also not practice, but the Giants are merely giving him a rest day.
Sept. 26, 7:00 p.m.
The Giants have officially listed wide receiver Darius Slayton as active for Thursday night’s matchup with the Dallas Cowboys.
Slayton was added to the injury report with a questionable tag late in the week due to a thumb issue, but after going through pregame warmups it appears he’s good to go.
Big Blue’s inactives for the week include: Adoree’ Jackson, Dru Phillips, Anthony Johnson, Benton Whitley, Boogie Basham, Jake Kubas, and Tommy DeVito.
Sept. 25, 2:05 p.m.
The Giants will be down two cornerbacks this week.
Big Blue announced Wednesday that Adoree’ Jackson and Dru Phillips will be out for the Giants’ Week 4 matchup against the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday with calf injuries. Both corners sustained the injury in Sunday’s win against the Cleveland Browns.
The Giants also listed WR Darius Slayton (thumb) as questionable.
Sept. 15, 1:18 p.m.
Giants kicker Graham Gano was injured on Sunday’s opening kickoff against the Washington Commanders, and is officially doubtful to return to the game.
Gano, whose name was added to the Giants’ injury report on Saturday with a groin issue (though he wasn’t given a game designation), was attempting to track down Washington returner Austin Ekeler on the opening kickoff and came up hobbling. To make matters worse, Gano’s efforts were ultimately for naught, as the would-be 98-yard touchdown was called back due to a holding penalty.
With Gano doubtful, it will likely mean that punter Jamie Gillan will need to handle kicking duties as well.
Sept. 12, 1:56 p.m.
Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton, who has been in concussion protocol, is making progress.
Slayton was in a red, non-contact jersey at Thursday’s practice.
If he is unable to play in Week 2 against the Commanders, it could mean more targets for Jalin Hyatt.
Sept. 9, 12:55 p.m.
PR/WR Gunner Olszewski injured his groin during warmups before Sunday’s Week 1 matchup against the Vikings.
The injury to Olszewski is expected to keep him out for “weeks.”
