🔮 Malik Nabers, Isaiah Likely and Cam Skattebo all are expected to play Sunday, but only one of the Giants’ top offensive weapons is laughing at the idea that his status was ever in jeopardy.
2026-10-10 · assertive framing · Giants get good news on injured offensive trio
🔮 Greg Newsome II could star in one of those Mastercard commercials where he delivers the slogan that playing in the right defensive scheme is the “priceless” thing that money can’t buy.
🔮 Will he be ready to supplant Jake Haener as No. 2 behind Jameis Winston in time for Sunday’s game against the Commanders?
🔮 But I would guess that Abdul relishes that.
🔮 And he can’t guarantee that will be the case — not because of the shoulder that he banged up landing after a contested catch against the Cardinals but because of the knee that underwent reconstructive surgery in September 2025.
🔮 Jake Haener was signed Wednesday to the active roster, NFL Network first reported, where he will join starter Jameis Winston and J.J. McCarthy.
🔮 Harbaugh, with assists from the scouting department and special teams coordinator Chris Horton, might have found the third long-term kicker solution of his 28-year NFL coaching career now that rookie Dominic Zvada is off to a 9-for-9 start on field goals and 5-for-5 on PATs.
🔮 John Harbaugh might need to get his T-shirt designer on the phone again.
🔮 Charlie Jones will fill Berrios’ multiple roles.
🔮 tRY IT NOWBecause McCarthy is on the 53-man roster, the Giants could have made McCarthy inactive and still used him as the emergency third-stringer if the starter and backup (Jameis Winston and Jake Haener) are ruled out.
