Giants' J.J. McCarthy: Impressive numbers in loss
McCarthy completed 23 of 36 passes for 293 yards with a touchdown and an interception while adding six rushes for 34 yards in the Giants' 24-21 loss to the Commanders on Thursday.
McCarthy continued to look like a competent NFL signal-caller in his third start for the Giants, posting a new career high in passing yards and adding a new season high in rushing yardage. McCarthy's one touchdown pass was a critical one, as he hit Isaiah Likely over the middle for a 66-yard score just before the midway point of the fourth quarter to erase a 17-14 deficit. McCarthy has displayed excellent chemistry with his top targets, and he'll look to keep his hot streak going against a pass-funnel Jaguars defense in a Week 11 home matchup on Sunday, Nov. 22.

Giants' J.J. McCarthy: Won't be limited in Week 10
McCarthy (hip pointer) is "good to go" and isn't expected to be limited for Thursday's game against the Commanders, James Palmer of NFL Network reports.
McCarthy missed much of the third quarter of this past Sunday's win at Philadelphia due to a hip pointer but was able to return to action, completing 12 of 19 passes for 127 yards, no touchdowns and no interceptions and rushing four times for 22 yards. Considering he ended Week 10 prep with back-to-back full practices, he seemingly was in the clear for Thursday's matchup, and Palmer's report indicates McCarthy will take on every rep, leaving Jameis Winston as the No. 2 QB, and on the sidelines Thursday.

Giants' J.J. McCarthy: Practices fully, ready for Thursday
McCarthy (hip) was listed as a full participant in Tuesday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
McCarthy was sidelined for most of the third quarter of this past Sunday's 19-11 win over the Eagles after sustaining a painful hip pointer, but he was able to finish out the game. Head coach John Harbaugh expressed confidence afterward that the injury wouldn't be anything that jeopardized McCarthy's status for Thursday's game against the Commanders, and the quarterback's ability to take every rep Tuesday clears the way for him to start on a short week. Through two starts and two appearances off the bench with the Giants, McCarthy has completed 43 of 68 pass attempts (63.2 percent) for 622 yards (9.1 YPA), one touchdown and one interception to go with 51 yards on nine carries.

Giants' J.J. McCarthy: Taking part in practice Tuesday
McCarthy (hip) was spotted on the field for the media-access portion of Tuesday's practice, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.
Listed as a limited participant on Monday's practice estimate when the Giants merely held a walkthrough, McCarthy looks poised to take more on-field reps Tuesday. Whether that translates into a "full" listing won't be known until the Giants release their second injury report of the week once Tuesday's practice concludes, but McCarthy's presence on the field is nonetheless a positive sign ahead of Thursday's game against the Commanders. McCarthy dealt with a hip pointer during the Giants' Week 9 win over the Eagles, but he was able to finish out the game after briefly checking out in the third quarter.

Giants' J.J. McCarthy: Managing hip issue
McCarthy (hip) is listed as limited on Monday's practice estimate, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
McCarthy exited Sunday's win at Philadelphia for a spell in the third quarter due to a hip injury but returned to action. Head coach John Harbaugh told Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News on Monday that McCarthy has a hip pointer but is expected to play Thursday versus the Commanders. McCarthy likely will need to be listed as full Tuesday and/or Wednesday to head into Week 10 action without a designation.
