Daniel Jones and the NY Giants will have wide receivers Sterling Shepard and Kadarius Toney at their disposal against the Kansas City Chiefs
NY Giants quarterback Daniel Jones will have two of his more vital offensive weapons Monday night against the Kansas City Chiefs, as wide receivers Kadarius Toney and Sterling Shepard are both active for the primetime matchup.
Both Toney (ankle), and Shepard (hamstring) were game-time decisions, but after going through successful pre-game workouts, will be in the lineup.
Toney was knocked from Week 5 against the Los Angeles Rams, when he suffered an ankle injury after catching his first three targets for 36 yards. Meanwhile, Shepard sat out last Sunday’s victory over the Carolina Panthers due to a hamstring injury.
Toney, chosen by the Giants with the No. 20 overall pick in this spring’s NFL Draft, is quickly developing into one of the offense’s focal points.
Meanwhile, the NY Giants will be without running back Saquon Barkley and wide receiver Kenny Golladay for the third consecutive game, both suffered injuries against the Dallas Cowboys last month.
Here’s a look at the NY Giants’ inactives for Monday night’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs:
RB Saquon Barkley
LB Lorenzo Carter
DB Nate Ebner
WR Kenny Golladay
DB J.R Reed
DL Daddny Shelton
