Indianapolis Colts vs New York Giants injuries for NFL Week 17

The Indianapolis Colts visit the New York Giants in NFL Week 17 action. The Colts (7-8) remain in the AFC playoff hunt while the Giants (2-13) have lost a franchise-record 10 straight games.

Indianapolis will watch the progress of guard Quenton Nelson and cornerback Jaylon Jones. Nelson briefly left its Week 16 game against the Tennessee Titans after suffering an ankle injury, and Jones missed most of the second half with a throat injury. Colts coach Shane Steichen said he didn’t have any information on the severity of the injury after the game.

The Giants are watching safety Jason Pinnock (eye) and linebacker Micah McFadden (neck), who missed part of their Week 16 game against the Atlanta Falcons.

Here an early look at the injuries facing both teams.
