Muasau (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's game versus the Cowboys, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Muasau exited Sunday's contest with an ankle injury, and it's up in the air whether he'll be able to get back onto the field in Week 18. With the Giants mathematically eliminated from playoff contention, they may opt to play things safe with Muasau and give some extra reps to Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles.

Muasau totaled nine tackles (three solo) during the Giants' loss versus the Commanders on Sunday.

EDGE Analysis

Muasau spent the last five weeks on injured reserve due to an ankle injury but had a strong outing in his return, compiling a team-high nine tackles. With Micah McFadden still out following foot surgery, Muasau should continue to serve as one of the Giants' starting inside linebackers alongside Bobby Okereke during the Week 16 matchup against the Vikings.

Muasau (ankle) is active for Sunday's game against Washington, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Muasau was activated from injured reserve Saturday, and the second-year pro has been officially cleared to return from a four-game absence due to an ankle injury. His return will likely result in Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles (illness/neck) reverting to a rotational role at inside linebacker.

The Giants activated Muasau (ankle) off injured reserve Saturday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Muasau has been sidelined for the past four games but is closer to making his return. While he's still listed as questionable for Sunday's game versus Washington, the 24-year-old should resume his role as an option at inside linebacker if he manages to suit up.

Muasau (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Matt Citak of the Giants' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Muasau had his 21-day practice window opened Tuesday and was able to log full participation in all three sessions this week. The return of the inside linebacker could be a needle-mover for this Giants defense, especially with the potential absence of Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles (illness/neck/knee).

Muasau (ankle), who remains on IR, was a full participant at Wednesday's practice, Matt Citak of the Giants' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Muasau had his 21-day practice window opened Tuesday and is already participating in full, which seemly gives him a realistic chance to be activated from IR in time for Sunday's divisional matchup against the Commanders. Once back in action, Muasau will stand to bump Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles down the depth chart at inside linebacker.

The Giants officially designated Muasau (ankle) to return from injured reserve Tuesday, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Muasau's 21-day practice window is now open, and if the Giants do not move him to the active roster in that span, he will need to remain on IR the rest of the season. The linebacker suffered an ankle injury in the Giants' Week 9 loss to the 49ers, leaving Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles with more snaps at inside linebacker. The 2024 sixth-round pick could return as early as Week 15 against the Commanders.

The Giants placed Muasau (ankle) on injured reserve Saturday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Muasau was already ruled out for Sunday's game against the Bears due to an ankle injury he sustained against the 49ers in Week 9. His placement on IR means he'll be required to miss at least the next four games, which makes Week 15 against the Commanders on Sunday, Dec. 14 the earliest he can return. Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles is in line to start at inside linebacker alongside Bobby Okereke due to Muasau and Micah McFadden (foot) both being on IR.

Muasau (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bears, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

The second-year linebacker from UCLA sustained an ankle injury in the Week 9 loss to the 49ers and was unable to practice all week. He's been an important part of the Giants' defense this season, recording 32 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, over eight appearances. With both Muasau and Micah McFadden (ankle, IR) sidelined in Week 10, Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles will likely play increased snaps with New York's first-team defense.

Muasau (ankle) did not practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Muasau suffered an ankle injury during the Giants' Week 9 loss to the 49ers, and he finished that contest with four tackles (two solo). The injury was severe enough for him to miss Wednesday's practice, and he'll have two more opportunities to log at least a limited session ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears. Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles would be in line to start at inside linebacker if Muasau is not cleared to play Week 10.
