McCarthy Expected to Play
The New York Giants expect quarterback J.J. McCarthy to be available on Thursday night when they host the Washington Commanders at MetLife Stadium. Coach John Harbaugh shared a positive update on Monday. McCarthy suffered a hip pointer in Sunday's 19-11 win over the Philadelphia Eagles.
McCarthy missed most of the third quarter after taking a hard hit from Eagles middle linebacker Zack Baun. He returned to help New York finish the game. Harbaugh stated he feels fairly good about McCarthy playing on Thursday.
Skattebo Set to Return
Running back Cam Skattebo missed Sunday's game with a hamstring injury. He hurt his hamstring during the overtime win against the Houston Texans before the bye week. Skattebo did not practice last week and was kept out of the lineup to avoid further risk.
Harbaugh mentioned that Skattebo was very close to playing on Sunday. The team decided against it because of the short week. Skattebo should be full-go for the upcoming matchup against Washington.
Rushing Attack Outlook
Devin Singletary started in place of Skattebo and rushed for 31 yards on 21 carries against Philadelphia. Greg Desrosiers Jr. also got carries after being signed from the Los Angeles Chargers practice squad. McCarthy added 22 yards on four carries as the second-leading rusher.
The Giants hold a 5-2-1 record and want another division win. Having Skattebo back should help the rushing attack improve on Thursday night.
