Giants' D.J. Davidson: Will play vs. Philadelphia
Davidson (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Paul Schwartz of the New York Post reports.
Davidson drew the questionable tag for Week 8 after upgrading from a DNP to a limited practice Friday, and he's been cleared to play after going through pregame warmups. He's operated in a rotational role on the defensive line this season and has accumulated three solo tackles through seven regular-season games.

Giants' D.J. Davidson: Downgrades to non-participant
Davidson (ankle) did not practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Davidson was limited in practice Wednesday, but he may have now suffered a setback. That said, Davidson managed to suit up Week 7 despite logging a FP-DNP-LP practice slate while listed with a knee injury, so if he's able to get back to at least limited activity levels Friday, he could still gain clearance for Sunday's divisional matchup at Philadelphia.

Giants' D.J. Davidson: Questionable for Sunday
Davidson (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Eagles, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Davidson upgraded from a DNP on Thursday to a limited session Friday, suggesting he's trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's contest. However, if the 28-year-old is unable to suit up in Week 8, expect Darius Alexander to see increased defensive snaps as a reserve defensive lineman.

Giants' D.J. Davidson: Ready for Sunday
Davidson (knee) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Broncos, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Despite logging a DNP at Thursday's practice due to a knee injury, Davidson is set to face the Broncos in Week 7. The Arizona State product has logged 106 defensive snaps over the Giants' first six games this season, tallying three total tackles. He's expected to serve as New York's top reserve nose tackle Sunday, playing behind Dexter Lawrence.

Giants' D.J. Davidson: Doesn't practice Thursday
Davidson (knee) didn't practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Davidson logged a full practice Wednesday, but he was unable to take the practice field the following day as he tries to recover from a knee injury sustained in last Thursday's Week 6 win over the Eagles. Friday's practice participation level should provide some insight on Davidson's potential availability for Sunday's game against the Broncos.

Giants' D.J. Davidson: Poised to return
Davidson did not appear on the Giants' injury report Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Davidson hurt his knee during the Giants' Week 6 win over the Eagles, but he doesn't appear to be in line for any additional missed time. He should return to a rotational role along the defensive line in Sunday's matchup against the Broncos.

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.

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.
