Neal (ribs/hip) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Eagles, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. Neal appears to have picked up ribs and hip injuries in the Giants' Week 17 win over the Colts, as he didn't practice throughout the week and will now be sidelined for the team's regular-season finale Sunday. Chris Hubbard is expected to serve as the Giants' top right tackle in Neal's stead in Week 18.
Neal (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Saints, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. Neal was limited in the final two practices of the week due to a hip injury, but he has been cleared to play Sunday and will start at right tackle.
Neal (hip) was a limited participant in Friday's practice and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Saints. Neal played through a hip injury during the Giants' Thanksgiving Day loss to the Cowboys. He was a DNP for Wednesday's practice, but he was able to finish with consecutive limited practices and appears to be on track to start at right tackle Sunday.
Neal (hip) returned to a limited practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. Neal logged a DNP at Wednesday's practice, but his return to a limited session would seem to put him on track to play Sunday after Neal played through the issue last Thursday against Dallas.
Neal (hip) did not participate in Wednesday's practice, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports. Neal played through a hip injury during the Giants' Thanksgiving Day loss to the Cowboys this past Thursday. While he didn't practice Wednesday, Neal should be expected to start at right tackle this Sunday against the Saints unless he's unable to practice over the next two days.
Neal (hip) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Thursday's game at Dallas. Neal missed practice Monday and was limited at practice Tuesday and Wednesday due to a hip issue, but he'll be available for the Giants in Week 13 anyway. He figures to start at right tackle against the Cowboys.
Head coach Brian Daboll said Tuesday that he's optimistic that Neal (hip) will be able to play against the Cowboys on Thursday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports. After not participating in Monday's walkthrough, Neal was able to get in some limited work Tuesday. Barring a setback, it appears Neal will suit up for Thursday's NFC East clash and play through a hip injury.
Neal (hip) was listed as a non-participant on Monday's practice report, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports. Neal didn't miss a snap during Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers, so it seems like he may have suffered then played through the hip injury. With the Giants traveling to Dallas for a Thanksgiving Day matchup, the Alabama product won't have too much time to recover. A clearer picture of his status for the matchup will likely come Tuesday or Wednesday.
Neal (ankle) was left off the Giants' injury report Wednesday ahead of Sunday's Week 1 contest against the Vikings. The 2022 first-round pick out of Alabama sustained an ankle injury toward the end of August, but it appears he's recovered in time to suit up for New York's Week 1 outing. After two disappointing seasons to start his NFL career, Thomas is expected to back up Jermaine Eluemunor at right tackle in 2024.
