As had been anticipated since early in the week, guard D.J. Fluker will not play for the New York Giants on Thursday due to a toe injury.
Fluker, who did not become a full-time starter for the Giants until Week 6, has been an instrumental part of an improved offensive line. Jon Halapio, a first-year player who has only nine snaps of NFL experience on offense, is expected to start in Fluker’s place.
Offensive lineman Justin Pugh (back) will miss a second straight game. Middle linebacker B.J. Goodson (ankle) will miss his fourth straight game and sixth of the season.
Here is the full injury list.
