Giants' Darius Muasau: Logs full practice
Muasau (ankle), who remains on IR, was a full participant at Wednesday's practice, Matt Citak of the Giants' official site reports.
Muasau had his 21-day practice window opened Tuesday and is already participating in full, which seemly gives him a realistic chance to be activated from IR in time for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Commanders. Once back in action, Muasau will stand to bump Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles down the depth chart at inside linebacker.

Giants' Darius Muasau: Designated to return from IR
The Giants officially designated Muasau (ankle) to return from injured reserve Tuesday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.
Muasau's 21-day practice window is now open, and if the Giants do not move him to the active roster in that span, he will need to remain on IR the rest of the season. The linebacker suffered an ankle injury in the Giants' Week 9 loss to the 49ers, leaving Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles with more snaps at inside linebacker. The 2024 sixth-round pick could return as early as Week 15 against the Commanders.

Giants' Darius Muasau: Goes on injured reserve
The Giants placed Muasau (ankle) on injured reserve Saturday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Muasau was already ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bears due to an ankle injury he sustained against the 49ers in Week 9. His placement on IR means he'll be required to miss at least the next four games, which makes Week 15 against the Commanders on Sunday, Dec. 14 the earliest he can return. Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles is in line to start at inside linebacker alongside Bobby Okereke due to Muasau and Micah McFadden (foot) both being on IR.

Giants' Darius Muasau: Out for Week 10
Muasau (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
The second-year linebacker from UCLA sustained an ankle injury in the Week 9 loss to the 49ers and was unable to practice all week. He's been an important part of the Giants' defense this season, recording 32 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, over eight appearances. With both Muasau and Micah McFadden (ankle, IR) sidelined in Week 10, Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles will likely play increased snaps with New York's first-team defense.

Giants' Darius Muasau: Doesn't practice Wednesday
Muasau (ankle) did not practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Muasau suffered an ankle injury during the Giants' Week 9 loss to the 49ers, and he finished that contest with four tackles (two solo). The injury was severe enough for him to miss Wednesday's practice, and he'll have two more opportunities to log at least a limited session ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears. Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles would be in line to start at inside linebacker if Muasau is not cleared to play Week 10.

Muasau (concussion) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chargers.
The 2024 sixth-round pick from UCLA missed the Giants' Week 3 loss to the Chiefs due to a concussion sustained the week prior, but he's since cleared protocol and is ready to return Sunday. Muasau has logged three total tackles across 77 total snaps (61 on defense, 17 on special teams) this season. Now healthy, he's expected to start at right inside linebacker against Los Angeles in Week 4.

Giants' Darius Muasau: Practices in full Thursday
Muasau (concussion) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Muasau's full participation in Thursday's practice indicates that he is progressing through the league's five-step concussion protocol after being limited in Wednesday's session. He'll need to pass the league's protocol in order to be cleared to play in Sunday's home clash against the Chargers. Muasau was diagnosed with a concussion during the Giants' Week 2 loss to the Cowboys.

Giants' Darius Muasau: Still recovering from concussion
Muasau (concussion) was a limited participant at practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Muasau was held out of practice all of last week after sustaining a concussion in Week 2 at Dallas, so his activity Wednesday is a positive step toward potentially returning to game action in Week 4. He'll need to fully clear concussion protocol Thursday or Friday to avoid carrying an injury designation into the weekend.

Giants' Darius Muasau: Won't play Sunday
Muasau (concussion/eye) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chiefs.
Muasau didn't practice all week after sustaining a concussion in the Giants' Week 2 overtime loss to the Cowboys, so it's no surprise that he'll be sidelined Sunday. The second-year pro from UCLA has played 56 defensive snaps through two games, recording three total tackles. In his absence, Swayze Bozeman is expected to start at inside linebacker in Week 3.
