Giants-Packers Inactives: CB Paulson Adebo Scratched Late for New York
In a crucial matchup, the New York Giants face the Green Bay Packers without several key players. Cornerback Paulson Adebo has been ruled out just before the game due to knee discomfort. This absence marks his fourth consecutive game missed.
Giants’ Inactive List
The Giants will also miss quarterback Jaxson Dart, who is sidelined with a concussion. Additionally, wide receiver Darius Slayton is out due to a hamstring injury.
Defensive Starters Missing
The team will be without other defensive pillars including:
- Kayvon Thibodeaux (edge defender) – Shoulder injury
- Rakeem Nunez-Roches (defensive tackle) – Toe injury
- Tyler Nubin (safety) – Neck injury
In this absence, Jameis Winston will step in as the starting quarterback for the Giants. Newly-acquired players Isaiah Hodgins and Jalin Hyatt are expected to share the load at wide receiver in Slayton’s absence. The lack of Thibodeaux may lead to increased snaps for defenders Brian Burns and Abdul Carter.
Key Replacements
The Giants have elevated defensive tackle Elijah Chatman from their practice squad to bolster their defense. Here’s the complete list of inactive players for both teams:
| Position | Player | Injury |
|---|---|---|
| QB | Jaxson Dart | Concussion |
| WR | Darius Slayton | Hamstring |
| OLB | Kayvon Thibodeaux | Shoulder |
| DT | Rakeem Nunez-Roches | Toe |
| S | Tyler Nubin | Neck |
| OT | James Hudson III | |
| CB | Nate Hobbs | Knee |
| WR | Malik Heath | |
| OL | Donovan Jennings | |
| DL | Lukas Van Ness |
The Giants will need to adapt quickly in this challenging situation as they face off against the Packers. Each player’s absence is a significant factor in the game strategy.
