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.

Giants' J.J. McCarthy: Likely to play Thursday, despite hip pointer
Giants head coach John Harbaugh said that McCarthy is managing a hip pointer but is expected to play Thursday against the Commanders, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports. "It does look like he's gonna play," Harbaugh said. "I feel fairly good about it."
During Sunday's 19-11 win over the Eagles, McCarthy exited with just over 12 minutes left in the third quarter due to the hip issue and appeared to be in significant discomfort while attempting to test out the injury by throwing on the sideline. Backup Jameis Winston stepped in to finish out the Giants' possession and directed another drive before McCarthy was able to check back into the contest for the final play of the quarter. Though he finished out the game for the Giants, McCarthy still looks to be less than 100 percent, and his practice reps could be affected on a short week. However, barring a major downturn in his condition, McCarthy should be ready to start Thursday's contest.

Giants' J.J. McCarthy: Ineffective in Week 9 win
McCarthy (hip) completed 12 of 19 passes for 127 yards and rushed four times for 22 yards in Sunday's 19-11 win over the Eagles.
McCarthy left the game in the third quarter due to a hip injury, and Jameis Winston led the Giants' only touchdown drive of the game before McCarthy checked back in on the following possession. Winston's small-sample success Sunday probably won't be enough to wrestle the starting role back from McCarthy, but McCarthy's Week 10 availability could be in question with a short week to recover before the Giants host the Commanders on Thursday. It wasn't pretty, but the 5-2-1 Giants maintained some breathing room in the NFC East, even with the Cowboys improving to 4-5, while the 2-7 Eagles and 2-5-1 Commanders dropped further out of contention.
