Giants receiver Malik Nabers told reporters he would be ready to play against the Eagles despite missing practice because of his knee. His absence came after he had not appeared on the previous day's injury report.

Nabers also received the NFC offensive player of the month award for October on the day he sat out. The Giants have yet to give him an official game designation. Running back Cam Skattebo is also awaiting a designation after a hamstring injury kept him out of practice for a second consecutive day.

Four players had limited participation: Jermaine Eluemunor, the right tackle, with a calf issue; Charlie Jones, a receiver, with a hand injury; Andrew Thomas, the left tackle, with a groin injury; and Darius Alexander, a defensive lineman, with a foot issue.

Full participants included linebackers Abdul Carter, Malik Harrison, Trace Ford and Micah McFadden, along with cornerback Colton Hood. Tight ends Theo Johnson and Thomas Fidone, offensive lineman Marcus Mbow and defensive lineman DJ Reader also participated fully.
