The dynamic wide receiver sprained his left ankle in a preseason game on August 21 and then missed New York’s season-opening loss at Dallas last weekend.

Highlights will be updated once the game begins. Eli Manning lofted a ideal pass down the right sideline that hit as softly as a butterfly right between the 1 and the 5 on receiver Brandon Marshall’s jersey. Making his season debut, wide receiver Odell Beckham was limited but managed to reel in four catches for 36 yards.
Marshall said that he lost the ball momentarily in the stadium lights.
Manning completed 22 of 32 passes for 239 passing yards and one touchdown, an 18-yard connection to the rookie tight end Evan Engram. The Giants have a lot of confidence in their secondary so they’ll likely bring some blitzes and different looks to make Stafford uncomfortable.
Whatever the cause, Manning wasn’t very good in Week 1. That was the biggest play of the game.
Giants left tackle Ereck Flowers was merely a minor nuisance for Ansah, who finished with three sacks. They couldn’t run the ball at all against the Cardinals and the Giants have a much better defensive front. “I missed the opportunity”.
While Beckham is slated to be back, we still do not think it is enough to power the Giants to victory. When it was suggested in April that he is past the midway point of his career, he scoffed a bit and said he wants to continue playing for a long time.
They were supposed to have an offense that could mask the deficiencies of Eli Manning, their 36-year-old quarterback who looks about a year older every week. Sometimes, if the lane was there, he took off, trying to get the first down.
GIANTS O-LINE: The line that struggled last season did nothing to show it was better this season. Either NYG will fall to 0-3 and the Eagles go to 2-1, or both walk out at 1-2. “So that’s on me”.
He played sharp. He made smart decisions.
“It was a ideal pass”.
