New York Giants Final Week 1 Injury Report: All Hands on Deck

It’s all hands on deck for the New York Giants and the Minnesota Vikings, who kick off the 2024 regular season Sunday at MetLife Stadium at 1:05 p.m. ET.

Both teams added to their respective injury reports. The Giants added outside linebacker Brian Burns with an ankle injury, listed as a limited participant in Friday’s practice.

But he, along with the other four players on the report (quarterback Drew Lock, safety Dane Belton, linebacker Micah McFadden, and returner Gunner Olszewski), is expected to contribute in some capacity on Sunday and did not receive an injury designation.

The Vikings gave veteran defensive backs Stephon Gilmore and Harrison Smith rest days. But the big news for them is that receivers Jordan Addison and Jalen Nailor, both of whom were limited earlier in the week with ankle issues, were full participants in Friday’s practice.
