Evan Neal Expected To Miss 3-4 Weeks
2 years agoNew York Giants rookie offensive tackle Evan Neal (knee) is expected to miss three to four weeks due to an MCL injury that he suffered in the Week 7 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars on Sunday, according to a source. Neal will miss a little bit of time, but the good news is that the first-round pick will be back this season. He was listed as week-to-week earlier on Monday and is officially dealing with a Grade 2 MCL sprain. Devery Hamilton is likely to draw the start at right tackle in Week 8 against the Seattle Seahawks. Neal's injury will be a downgrade for the Giants offense for the next three to four weeks. The 22-year-old came off the board with the seventh overall pick out of Alabama earlier this year.
