Ford-Wheaton (Achilles) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against Carolina, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports. Ford-Wheaton will miss his second consecutive contest. He's a fixture on special teams for the Giants but has no offensive role, having played just two snaps on that side of the ball.
Ford-Wheaton (Achilles) remained sidelined for Thursday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. Ford-Wheaton was inactive for last Sunday's loss to the Commanders with the same injury, and he's now been listed as DNP in back-to-back days to start this practice week. He's played just two offensive snaps this season but is a fixture on special teams for New York.
Ford-Wheaton (Achilles) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports. Ford-Wheaton tried to play through his Achilles issue in Week 8 but was unable to finish the game, and then he sat out entirely in Week 9. Now his status for Week 10 is in jeopardy, and he'll likely need to practice to some extent Thursday or Friday to have any chance to play Sunday.
Ford-Wheaton (Achilles) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. As expected, Ford-Wheaton will be in street clothes after drawing a doubtful tag. He played through the Achilles issue during the Giants' Week 8 loss to the Steelers, but he may have suffered a setback, as he didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday of Week 9 prep. Ford-Wheaton's absence shouldn't impact the Giants' offense, as he's played only two offensive snaps in seven appearances, but he is one of the team's top special-teams players.
Ford-Wheaton (Achilles) is listed as doubtful ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Commanders, Patricia Traina of SI.com reports. Ford-Wheaton was able to play through his Achilles issue in the Giants' Week 8 loss to the Steelers, but he was held out of practice both Wednesday and Thursday, suggesting that his injury may have worsened. If Ford-Wheaton can't play in Week 9 as expected, the Giants will be without one of their top special-teams aces.
Ford-Wheaton (Achilles) didn't practice Wednesday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports. Ford-Wheaton played through his Achilles injury in the Giants' Week 8 loss to the Steelers, failing to record a stat across 23 special-teams snaps. Wednesday's DNP is likely precautionary; however, if he can't upgrade to at least limited work Thursday or Friday, he could be in jeopardy of missing the Giants' Week 9 matchup against the Commanders.
Ford-Wheaton (Achilles) was a full participant in Friday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. Ford-Wheaton upgraded from limited work Thursday to a full session Friday, suggesting that he's moved past his Achilles injury. Now that the West Virginia product has returned to full health, he's expected to serve as one of the Giants' top special-teams aces in Week 8.
Ford-Wheaton (Achilles) was listed as a limited practice participant Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. Ford-Wheaton was able to play through a shoulder injury during the Giants' Week 7 loss to the Eagles, during which he played 30 snaps on special teams and one on offense. He appears to have picked up an Achilles injury during the loss, however, and his practice participation over the next two days will provide clarity on his ability to play Monday against the Steelers.
Ford-Wheaton (shoulder) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Eagles, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports. Ford-Wheaton upgraded to full participation in Friday's practice after opening the week with two limited sessions, suggesting he's moved past his shoulder issue in time for Sunday's divisional matchup. Expect the West Virginia product to play strictly on special teams in Week 7.
