New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers has returned to the injury report, listed as limited in Thursday's practice due to a toe issue, following a day where he was not listed at all. Nabers recently set a franchise record for rookie receptions and surpassed 1,000 receiving yards, showcasing his resilience by playing through injuries to achieve these milestones. As he aims for the NFL rookie reception record, his participation in the upcoming game remains uncertain and may depend on a game-time decision.

The Giants' offensive line is also facing challenges, with center John Michael Schmitz likely to miss the regular-season finale due to an ankle injury. Additionally, right tackle Evan Neal has been sidelined for two days with rib and hip ailments. If Neal is unable to play, the team may shift Jermaine Eluemunor back to the right tackle position and insert Joshua Ezeudu at left tackle.
