Golston (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Packers.
EDGE Analysis
Golston continues to work through a neck injury that prevented him from practicing during Week 11 prep. He'll miss a fifth consecutive game as a result of his injury, and his next opportunity to play is Week 12 against the Lions on Sunday, Nov. 23. With Golston and Kayvon Thibodeaux (shoulder) both ruled out, Abdul Carter, Victor Dimukeje and Tomon Fox are all candidates for increased snaps at linebacker alongside Brian Burns.

Golston (neck) is listed as out for Sunday's game against the Bears, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Golston will miss his fourth straight game due to a lingering neck injury in Week 10. Most of his snaps so far this year have come on special teams, so the Giants will have to try to find a way to replicate his production in that phase.

EDGE Analysis
Golston is now in line to miss his second consecutive game while dealing with an ankle issue.

Golston (ankle) is inactive for Sunday night's contest against the Chiefs, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
EDGE Analysis
Golston will be forced to miss Week 3 while dealing with an apparent ankle injury. The linebacker combined to play 32 defensive snaps over the team's first two games of the year, so his absence doesn't carry a massive impact.

The Giants agreed to terms with Golston on a three-year, $19.5 million contract Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Golston had a career year in 2024 with the Cowboys, starting 13 of 17 games while setting career highs across the board with 56 tackles (30 solo), including 5.5 sacks, five pass breakups, including one interception, and one fumble recovery on 72 percent of the defensive snaps. Golston gives the Giants another capable pass rusher, whether it's off the edge with Brian Burns and Kayvon Thibodeaux or with his hand in the dirt alongside Dexter Lawrence.
