Giants' D.J. Davidson: Hurts knee on tush push
Davidson is questionable to return to Thursday's game against the Eagles due to a knee injury, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
Davidson was on the field for a series of plays near the goal line, during which the Eagles ran four consecutive tush pushes. The final play ended in a touchdown and it also appeared to be when Davidson suffered his injury. He was carted to the locker room, so his return should be in doubt despite the official designation.

Giants' D.J. Davidson: Past hamstring issue
Davidson (hamstring) recorded two tackles (one solo), including 1.0 sacks, in Saturday's preseason opener against the Bills.
Davidson recently missed time with the hamstring issue but looked good against Buffalo. Selected in the fifth round of the 2022 Draft, Davidson appeared in 12 regular-season contests last season, recording 23 tackles (12 solo), including 2.0 sacks, and two fumble recoveries.

Giants' D.J. Davidson: Suffers hamstring injury
Davidson left Tuesday's training camp practice after injuring his right hamstring, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
It's the second time Davidson has tweaked his right hamstring in three days, and while he appeared to be in more pain Tuesday, he was able to walk off the practice field under his own power. He'll undergo further testing to determine the severity of the injury, but he will likely be limited to sideline work over the next few days to avoid aggravation. Davidson is coming off his most productive NFL campaign, finishing the 2024 regular season with 23 tackles (12 solo), including 2.0 sacks, and two fumble recoveries across 12 games.

Giants' D.J. Davidson: Posts best season to date
Davidson (shoulder) ended the 2024 campaign with 23 tackles (12 solo), including 2.0 sacks, along with two recovered fumbles.
Davidson played just 14 more defensive snaps than in 2023, but he ended up with almost twice as many stops. Both of his sacks on the season came in a Week 5 win over Seattle. Davidson ended the campaign on IR due to a shoulder injury, but he should be ready for training camp ahead of the 2025 season. He'll likely provide defensive-line depth for New York again next year in what will be the final season of his rookie contract.

Giants' D.J. Davidson: Placed on IR due to shoulder injury
The Giants placed Davidson (shoulder) on injured reserve Saturday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Davidson injured his shoulder during the Giants' Thanksgiving Day loss to the Cowboys. While he was able to practice in a limited capacity all week, he was deemed doubtful for Sunday's game against the Saints. Davidson's shoulder injury appears serious enough to warrant a stint on IR, and he'll have to be sidelined for at least the next four regular-season games. That makes Week 18 against the Eagles on Sunday, Jan. 5 the earliest he could return, but it's possible that Davidson's 2024 campaign will end while on IR, as the Giants have already been eliminated from postseason contention.

Giants' D.J. Davidson: Unlikely to play Sunday vs. NOLA
Davidson (shoulder) was a limited participant in Friday's practice but is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against New Orleans.
Davidson injured his shoulder during the Giants' Thanksgiving Day loss to the Cowboys. He was a limited participant in practice all week, but it appears he is trending towards being sidelined for Sunday's contest. With Davidson unlikely to play and Rakeem Nunez-Roches (neck/shoulder) already ruled out, Cory Durden -- who was signed off the Rams' practice squad Monday -- is slated to start on the Giants' defensive line alongside Elijah Chatman and Jordon Riley.

Giants' D.J. Davidson: Good to go Thursday
Davidson (shoulder) does not carry an injury designation ahead of Thursday's game at Dallas.
Davidson was limited at practice during the week due to a shoulder issue, but it won't hold him out of game action in Week 13. He should resume his regular rotational role on the defensive line Thursday.

Giants' D.J. Davidson: Nursing shoulder injury
Davidson (shoulder) was estimated as a limited practice participant for Monday's walk-through practice.
Davidson left Sunday's game against the Buccaneers due to an ankle injury, but he was listed with a shoulder injury on Monday's practice estimate. With the Giants playing Thursday against the Cowboys, Davidson will have Tuesday and Wednesday to increase his practice participation.

Giants' D.J. Davidson: Leaves game due to ankle injury
Davidson (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.
Davidson was helped off the field by trainers after suffering an ankle injury. Armon Watts would be the lone rotational defensive end behind Rakeem Nunez-Roches and Elijah Chatman if Davidson is unable to return Sunday.

Giants' D.J. Davidson: Records first full sacks of career
Davidson tallied 2.0 sacks in Sunday's 29-20 win over Seattle in Week 5.
Davidson logged just a half-sack over his first 20 regular-season NFL games after entering the league in 2022, so his performance Sunday was a bit unexpected. Both of the defensive end's sacks came in a tight second half -- he brought down Geno Smith on a first-down play in the third quarter to help limit the Seahawks to a field goal, then took Smith down again with under a minute left in the fourth as Seattle attempted to mount a final rally. Davidson logged 33 percent of New York's defensive snaps Sunday, which is in line with the workload he has handled overall through the first five weeks of the campaign.

Giants' D.J. Davidson: Full practice Wednesday
Davidson (knee) was a full participant at the Giants' practice Wednesday, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
Davidson missed the team's 14-9 loss to the Bills in Week 6 while dealing with a knee injury, but his full practice Wednesday all but clears him to play in Week 7. The 26-year-old will return to his role as a primary reserve option on New York's defensive line against Washington on Sunday.
