The New York Giants have been badly hit with the injury bug this season. Week Five of the NFL season is a direct representation of that. Five Giants players will not travel with the team to London; many of them starters.
Five Giants Not Traveling With Team:
Kadarius Toney will not travel to London with the Giants for Sunday's game. He is OUT.
Four others in same boat, and another big one: OLB Azeez Ojulari (calf), plus WR Kenny Golladay, DL Henry Mondeaux and CB Cor'Dale Flott.

Kadarius Toney (hamstring), Azeez Ojulari (calf), wide receiver Kenny Golladay (knee), rookie cornerback Cor’Dale Flott (calf), and defensive lineman Henry Mondeaux (ankle) did not practice Thursday. This caused them to not make the trip overseas. They will all miss this week’s game Vs the Packers.
These injuries leave the New York Giants (3-1) with David Sills, Richie James, and Darius Slayton as their primary weapons on offense. Marcus Johnson is also likely to be activated off the practice squad. Ojulari suffered a calf injury in Sunday’s 20-12 win over the Chicago Bears. The same injury kept him out of the first two games of the season as he originally hurt before the season started.
This will leave the Giants without one of their most dangerous pass rushers against Green Bay. This is something Aaron Rodgers will certainly take note of. Ojulari had just picked up his first sack of the season against the Bears. It was a strip-sack of Justin Fields, in which New York recovered. This latest injury news should leave Green Bay even more in the driver’s seat going into London. The Giants’ rush offense will be the biggest challenge for this Green Bay team looking to start 4-1. Below is their most up-to-date injury report:
