Giants' Brian Burns: Ready to rock
Burns (groin) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bengals, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
The 26-year-old was able to log a week of limited practice sessions and will continue to play through his groin issue in Week 6. Burns has recorded 15 total tackles, including 2.0 sacks, and defended five passes across New York's first five contests this season. The first-year Giant will be without his co-star in Kayvon Thibodeaux on Sunday, so Burns will likely start opposite Azeez Ojulari.

Giants' Brian Burns: Limited Wednesday
Burns (groin) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Burnes played through a groin issue and logged two total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and defended two passes across 47 defensive snaps in the Giants' Week 5 win over the Seahawks. It appears likely that the Giants are being cautious with their Pro Bowl edge rusher's groin issue. His participation Thursday and Friday will provide a better indication of his availability in Week 6, when the Giants host the Bengals.

Giants' Brian Burns: Cleared for Sunday
Burns (groin) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Seahawks and is expected to play, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Burns was limited in practice Wednesday and Thursday but is good to go for Sunday's road affair. Through four games with his new team, Burns has recorded 13 tackles (10 solo) -- including 1.0 sacks -- three QB hits, three pass breakups and one fumble recovery.

Giants' Brian Burns: Added to injury report
Burns (groin) was a limited participant during practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Burns handled his typical workload in last Thursday's loss to the Cowboys, so it's not exactly clear when he suffered the injury unless it happened during practice. The veteran pass rusher will try and ramp up his activity Friday in the team's final practice before heading to Seattle for a Week 5 matchup Sunday.

Giants' Brian Burns: Set to play
Burns (groin) is active Week 3 against the Browns, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Giants' Brian Burns: In line to play Week 3
Burns (groin) remains listed as questionable but is expected to play Sunday versus the Browns, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Burns popped up on Friday's injury report with a groin issue after logging a limited practice session that day. Assuming the edge rusher experiences no setbacks with the groin and is cleared to play leading up to the 1 p.m. ET kickoff, Burns will look to get after Cleveland quarterback Deshaun Watson as he seeks his first sack as a member of the Giants.

Giants' Brian Burns: Dealing with groin injury
Burns was added to the injury report Friday due to a groin injury and is questionable for Sunday's game against the Browns, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
Late-week additions are rarely a good sign, but perhaps Burns has avoided anything serious and will be able to play in 48 hours. Burns is still looking for his first sack as a member of the Giants after being acquired from Carolina over the offseason. Kayvon Thibodeaux and Azeez Ojulari will have to pick up the slack off the edge for the G-Men if Burns is unable to play. Benton Whitley would be next up for edge reps.
