New York Giants vs. Los Angeles Rams injury news

The headlines emerging from New Jersey are that Daniel Jones will play and lead Big Blue out onto the field. The negative news is that star running back Saquon Barkley is out due to his injury against the Cowboys. Number one wide receiver Kenny Golladay is out, while rookie wideout Kadarius Toney is questionable.

QB Daniel Jones practiced fully today.

Statuses for Giants vs. Rams:

OUT:
RB Saquon Barkley (ankle)
WR Kenny Golladay (knee)
LB Justin Hillard (Achilles/IR)

QUESTIONABLE:
OL Ben Bredeson (hand)
WR Darius Slayton (hamstring)
OL Andrew Thomas (foot)
WR Kadarius Toney (ankle)

As for the Rams, the only concern surrounds Aaron Donald. The best defensive player in the game took no part at Wednesday's practice. Furthermore, he was limited on Thursday. The Rams attempt to monitor Donald's reps in practice, plus they try and give him as much rest as possible. The injury report may not matter come game time, but Donald's status is worth monitoring.

New York Giants vs. Los Angeles Rams prediction

Yes, flying cross country and playing a morning game is difficult. Nevertheless, the Rams are far too talented and powerful to lose to the Giants. Matthew Stafford and his teammates will win comfortably and carry on their excellent form.
