Giants Place Pro Bowl DT Dexter Lawrence on Injured Reserve
The defensive lineman's dislocated elbow ends his season as the Giants grapple with a depleted roster and a 2-10 record.
- Dexter Lawrence, a two-time Pro Bowler, was placed on injured reserve after dislocating his elbow during the Thanksgiving loss to the Dallas Cowboys.
- Lawrence, who leads the team with 9.0 sacks this season, is not expected to return for the Giants' final game due to the team's lack of playoff contention.
- The Giants signed Cory Durden off the Los Angeles Rams’ practice squad to address depth issues on the defensive line caused by multiple injuries.
- The team also placed rookie tight end Theo Johnson on injured reserve, further straining an already struggling offense.
- With three of their five team captains unavailable, the Giants are focusing on evaluating younger talent as they prepare for the 2025 season.
