1. Injury concerns aren’t going anywhere for the Giants

I:s there any other team out there who has had worse luck than the Giants when it comes to injuries? Absolutely not. With Thibodeaux, his status for Week 1 is totally up in the air due to his knee injury, but things don’t look promising. The same can be said for fellow pass-rusher Azeez Ojulari, as it’d be a surprise to see him play on Sunday.

It might be best for the team to sit both these studs and not rush them back. Not having both Thibodeaux and Ojulari out on the field will be a major blow for the Titans showdown. They’re not the only two to focus on, though. Kadarius Toney has battled an injury as well. While he should suit up, the hope is he doesn’t get hurt again.

Sterling Shepard continues to work his way back from his torn Achilles. Will he be able to make a difference vs. the Titans? That’s what everyone is wanting to see, but you just never know what might happen. When this team is fully healthy, they have the potential to make serious noise.

Staying healthy is the issue, however. Keep your fingers crossed this won’t be a consistent problem throughout the fall.
