Giants' Injury Woes Deepen with Burns Set to Miss Time
Following the season-ending injury to quarterback Jaxson Dart, the New York Giants face another blow with star linebacker Brian Burns expected to miss playing time due to an ankle injury.
The New York Giants' injury concerns have intensified with the news that star linebacker Brian Burns will be sidelined with an ankle injury. This latest setback follows the earlier announcement that quarterback Jaxson Dart will miss the remainder of the season.
Burns sustained the injury late in the Giants' 28-6 loss to the Rams on Monday night. According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the linebacker is not expected to require surgery, though the exact duration of his absence remains unclear. Burns was seen walking gingerly to the sideline in the fourth quarter of the game after his ankle was rolled.
Dart's season-ending injury was confirmed after an MRI revealed damage to his medial collateral ligament, meniscus, and posterior cruciate ligament. The Giants are scheduled to host the Titans on Sunday, seeking to rebound from their recent loss.
