SEPTEMBER 30, 2016 NEW YORK GIANTS INJURY REPORT…
Cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie (groin), cornerback Eli Apple (hamstring), safety Darian Thompson (foot), safety Nat Berhe (concussion), offensive tackle Marshall Newhouse (calf), and defensive tackle Robert Thomas (illness) did not practice on Friday.
“We will miss (Rodgers-Cromartie and Apple),” said Defensive Coordinator Steve Spagnuolo. “We need to get somebody else to step up in there and hopefully they can get healthy quick.”
Running back Rashad Jennings (thumb) was limited in practice. Defensive end Olivier Vernon (wrist) fully practiced.
“Rashad had a nice day today,” said Head Coach Ben McAdoo. “He got some work in both with our offense and the ‘look’ team and had a productive day. He caught some balls, so he’s progressing.”
