Rotowire
Adebo (knee) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Adebo was already expected to miss multiple weeks with the sprained MCL he suffered in Week 7 at Denver, so it's not a surprise to see he's still not in football shape just yet. Unless he manages to return to practice Thursday or Friday, he figures to be sidelined in Week 9 versus the 49ers.

Giants' Paulson Adebo: Misses Wednesday's practice
Rotowire
Adebo (knee) will not practice Wednesday, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.
The veteran corner sustained a knee injury in the third quarter of the Week 7 loss to the Broncos and is now considered day-to-day. Adebo has been an integral part of the Giants' defense in his first season with the team, recording 48 total tackles and four passes defended across seven contests.

Rotowire
Adebo (knee) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Denver, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

Rotowire
Adebo (shoulder) was a limited participant in practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Giants' Paulson Adebo: Agrees to terms with G-Men
Rotowire
The Giants are in line to sign Adebo to a contract, ESPN.com reports.

Saints' Paulson Adebo: Undergoes season-ending surgery
Rotowire
Adebo (upper leg) underwent season-ending surgery Friday morning to address a broken right femur sustained during Thursday's 33-10 loss to the Broncos, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Adebo is facing an expected recovery timetable of 4-5 months, which Schefter notes could allow him to be fully healthy by March, when he's scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent. The 2021 third-round pick was in the middle of a breakout season with the Saints, but he'll now need to turn his focus toward making a full recovery for the 2025 campaign. The loss of Adebo figures to propel rookie first-round pick Kool-Aid McKinstry into a starting role alongside Marshon Lattimore (hamstring).
