Kadarius Toney (hamstring) and Kenny Golladay (knee) are both not practicing again today. Saquon Barkley (shoulder) is limited again.

Related Players: Wan'Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton, Richie James, Daniel Bellinger

Whether physical or behind-the-scenes issues are truly to blame here, this is beginning to feel like a lost season for Toney unless the team is able to fire up a trade in the next couple of weeks. The former first-round pick has exactly two receptions in 2022, coming off the heels of trade rumors throughout the offseason. Hopefully this will continue to leave the door open for Wan'Dale Robinson to become a true fantasy option.

RB Saquon Barkley (shoulder) has no injury designation and is good to go.

You know the drill; Barkley is back to his old self and is a usage hog. Play him where you've got him.

Brian Daboll says Daniel Jones (ankle) “came out good” after last week’s game.
Saquon Barkley (shoulder) will be out there practicing.

The tweet added Jones feels better today than he did last Wednesday, so that's great news for owners. The team expects Barkley to be limited with his shoulder issue. Looks like both players should be good to go for Week 6.

Giants RB Saquon Barkley is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Packers with a shoulder injury.

Update: Barkley is back in the game.

Barkley left the game late in the third quarter. He had 12 carries for 68 yards. The Giants have Gary Brightwell and Matt Breida behind him and Brightwell just scored a touchdown.

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

Saquon returned to a limited session on Thursday after missing Wednesday's practice with an ankle injury. Saquon has struggled along with the rest of the Giants offense this season, and battling an ankle injury is not going to help matters. His return to practice is a good sign for his availability against the Chicago Bears, but we will get a better idea of his status for this weekend following the release of Friday's final injury report. Saquon is currently our 21st ranked running back for Week 17.

Giants RB Saquon Barkley (ankle) and WR Kadarius Toney (shoulder) did not practice Wednesday.

The Giants are atop the list of teams that need the season to end with the myriad of injuries they have had. Both are desperately needed Week 17 against the Bears in Chicago.

Giants RB Saquon Barkley (ankle) and K Graham Gano (illness) did not practice Wednesday.

More concern can be had if both are DNPs through Friday.

Some who have watched Saquon Barkley suggest that he hasn’t returned to the form he showed before last year’s torn ACL, but Barkley rejected that notion after Sunday’s loss.

“It’s week whatever in the NFL, no one is 100 percent physically. That’s their opinion, but I know I am,” Barkley said, via WFAN.com.

The story opined the Giants were terrible before Barkley tore his ACL and they remain terrible through 12 games of this season even after Barkley's return. The story went on to say the Giants were playing without quarterback Daniel Jones and a pair of wide receivers, which would seem to set the stage for Barkley to put the offense on his shoulders, but he managed 55 rushing yards on 11 carries and 19 receiving yards on six catches and dropped a pair of passes.

After the firing of offensive coordinator Jason Garrett, interim Giants OC Freddie Kitchens wanted to make a point of emphasis going forward - get the ball to the best players on designed plays. "You need to get a sense, a feel for what they are comfortable with," Kitchens said. "Why would you call something -- and this is what our staff believes -- why would you call something if the player is not comfortable running it? It's your job to get them comfortable running it. ... If you can’t get them to that point, it's kind of diminishing returns."

"I think I realized it pretty early in the week as far as the game plan and what we were trying to do, getting the ball to certain guys, and plays were designed to get the ball to them," Daniel Jones said. "You're thinking about that throughout the game as plays are called and coming in. Obviously, there's a read and you've got to understand what the defense is doing. But I'd say I was pretty cognizant of what we were trying to do."

It sounds silly but saying that the best players need to get the ball can get lost on a coaching staff when an entire offense is struggling. Raanan's article listed Barkley, Golladay, Engram, Toney, and Shepard multiple times, a sign that the core is the focus going forward, especially when they are all healthy. The Giants offense is sketchy at best, but refocusing the offense with the entire coaching staff having input is a sign of life that needs to show on the field.

Giants WR Sterling Shepard (quad) will miss Week 12's game against the Philadelphia Eagles. WR Kadarius Toney (quad) and TE Kyle Rudolph (ankle) are doubtful, while RB Saquon Barkley (ankle) is questionable.

One step forward, two steps back for the Giants health-wise. WR Darius Slayton did clear concussion protocol, so his availability is no longer in question.
