Who’s in, who’s out for Chargers at Giants

The following players will be inactive for Sunday’s game between the New York Giants and Los Angeles Chargers at MetLife Stadium.

  • RB Tyrone Tracy Jr.
  • DL Chauncey Golston
  • G Evan Neal
  • TE Thomas Fidone II
  • DL Rakeem Nuñez-Roches Sr.
  • S Beau Brade
  • QB Jameis Winston (3rd QB)
  • WR Derius Davis
  • S R.J. Mickens
  • CB Nikko Reed
  • G Mekhi Becton
  • TE Will Dissly
  • DT Otito Ogbonnia

The Giants had officially ruled out three players on their final injury report of the week: kicker Graham Gano (groin), defensive lineman Chauncey Golston (ankle) and running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (shoulder). Defensive lineman Rakeem Nuñez-Roches Sr. (foot) was doubtful.

On Saturday, the Giants signed outside linebacker Tomon Fox and defensive lineman Elijah Garcia to the active roster from the practice squad. They also elevated kicker Jude McAtamney and linebacker Neville Hewitt.

Gano, who suffered the groin injury in final warmups before kickoff last Sunday night, was placed on injured reserve.

The Giants consequently signed veteran kicker Younghoe Koo to the practice squad. He competed with McAtamney in practice this week for the job on Sunday.

McAtamney made his NFL debut for the Giants in Week 9 of last season and was successful on his lone field goal attempt from 31 yards (in addition to an extra point attempt). A native of Derry, Ireland, McAtamney became the first Irish-born player to score in a game since 1985.

On the other coast, the Chargers had ruled out three players heading into Sunday: guard Mekhi Becton (concussion), wide receiver Derius Davis (knee) and tight end Will Dissly (knee). Center Bradley Bozeman (back) was questionable.

On Saturday, Los Angeles elevated tackle Foster Sarell and running back Kimani Vidal from the practice squad for Sunday’s game.
