Lock (abdomen) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's Week 1 game against the Vikings, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports. Lock has been dealing with this abdomen issue for about a month now, but it appears the injury won't stop him from suiting up for the Giants' regular-season opener Sunday. In his first season with New York, the 2019 second-round pick is expected to serve as the Giants' top backup quarterback behind Daniel Jones.

Lock (abdomen) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's Week 1 game against the Vikings, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports. Lock has been dealing with this abdomen issue for about a month now, but it appears the injury won't stop him from suiting up for the Giants' regular-season opener Sunday. In his first season with New York, the 2019 second-round pick is expected to serve as the Giants' top backup quarterback behind Daniel Jones.
Lock (abdomen) remained a limited participant on Thursday's estimated practice report, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. Lock was injured in New York's Aug. 8 preseason contest. If he's unable to dress as Daniel Jones' backup Sunday against the Vikings, second-year QB Tommy DeVito would get the nod as the Giants' QB2.
Lock (hip) was a limited participant during practice Wednesday, Charlotte Carroll of The Athletic reports. Lock is still tending to the injury he suffered in the team's first preseason game Aug. 8 against the Lions. Carroll reported last Wednesday that head coach Brian Daboll thought the Missouri product would likely be ready Week 1, so his current status may not be of much concern. Either way, Lock will be on the sidelines Sunday when the Giants host the Vikings, either as the team's No. 2 quarterback behind Daniel Jones or as an inactive. If he is ultimately unable to play, the team will turn to Tommy DeVito as the backup.
Giants head coach Brian Daboll said Sunday that Lock (hip) will likely be good to go for the start of the regular season, Charlotte Carroll of The Athletic reports. Lock hurt his hip in New York's preseason opener versus Detroit and didn't play in either of the team's remaining two exhibition contests. Daboll indicated Sunday that the quarterback is "moving in the right direction," which is supported by the fact that Lock recently returned to team drills and even even suited up for the Giants' preseason finale against the Jets on Saturday, though he didn't take the field. It's worth noting, though, that New York included three quarterbacks -- Lock, starter Daniel Jones and second-year pro Tommy DeVito -- on its initial 53-man roster, with DeVito possibly making the cut as insurance for Lock.
Lock (hip) did not appear in Saturday's 10-6 preseason loss to the Jets. Lock injured his hip in the Giants' first preseason contest and has not appeared in game action since. However, he has returned to team drills and was spotted in pads before Saturday's game. Considering the health concerns surrounding starter Daniel Jones, the Giants had little to gain by putting Lock in potential jeopardy ahead of the regular season. Lock will enter the season as the backup.
Lock (hip) is suited up ahead of Saturday's preseason game against the Jets, Bob Brookover of The Newark Star-Ledger reports. Lock was removed from the Giants' exhibition opener Aug. 8 and eventually was diagnosed with a bone contusion in his left hip and a strained oblique. The pair of health concerns sidelined him at practice until this past Tuesday, and he now has a chance to see his second dose of preseason action Saturday. Assuming he gets in the game, Lock would split QB duties with fellow reserve Tommy DeVito with Daniel Jones expected to sit out.
Lock (hip) didn't participate in team drills Wednesday, Patricia Traina of SI.com reports. The Giants' No. 2 quarterback injured his hip during the team's first preseason game against the Lions, and he's yet to return to the field. While Lock remains sidelined, expect Tommy DeVito to take snaps as New York's second-string quarterback.
Lock (hip) is practicing Tuesday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports. Lock suffered a bone contusion to his hip during the team's first preseason game against the Lions on Aug. 8 and has been out of action since. However, the veteran should be ready Week 1 against the Vikings, where he's expected to be the team's No. 2 quarterback, behind starter Daniel Jones.
Coach Brian Daboll said Tuesday that Lock (hip) is doing "a lot better" and could be active for Saturday's preseason game against the Texans, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. Lock said he fully expects to be ready for Week 1, per Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News. The backup QB suffered a bone contusion and strained oblique during New York's preseason opener against the Lions, but it doesn't appear he'll be sidelined too long. Until Lock returns to practice, though, No. 3 quarterback Tommy DeVito figures to benefit from increased reps.
