Ezeudu (calf) was not activated from injured reserve Wednesday and his practice period expired, per the NFL transaction log.

EDGE Analysis

Ezeudu has practiced in full for the last couple of weeks, but the Giants will keep him sidelined with nothing to play for in Week 18. He was unable to suit up at all in the 2025 season after suffering a calf injury during training camp.

Ezeudu (calf) is officially listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Raiders.

EDGE Analysis

Ezeudu has been listed as a full participant at practice throughout Week 17 prep, and he seems healthy enough to be activated from IR and suit up versus Las Vegas on Sunday. He'll need to be activated by the team on Saturday in order to be eligible to take the field Sunday. With Andrew Thomas (hamstring) ruled out for Week 17, Ezeudu could provide New York with some needed depth at left tackle.

Ezeudu (calf) was a full participant at practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ezeudu was not limited at practice last week, but he was still ultimately sidelined for Week 15 versus the Commanders. Unless he's officially activated from the Giants' injured reserve list during the week, it won't be clear whether he'll be suiting up Sunday versus the Vikings.

Ezeudu (calf) was not activated from injured reserve Saturday and has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ezeudu was cleared to return to practice Wednesday, and while he was a full practice participant during Week 15 prep, he's not quite ready to make his 2025 regular-season debut. His next opportunity to do so is Week 16 against the Vikings on Sunday, Dec. 21.

Ezeudu (calf) was a full participant in the Giants' practice Wednesday, Matt Citak of the team's official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ezeudu has been sidelined all season due to a calf injury but appears closer to making his return. The team will still have to activate the 26-year-old off injured reserve before he's eligible to play. Once healthy, Ezeudu should provide additional depth at offensive tackle.

The Giants utilized a return designation for Ezeudu (calf) Aug. 27, and he seems ready to return to the practice field, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

EDGE Analysis

Absent with an undisclosed injury all season, Ezeudu is revealed to have worked his way back from a calf injury that had plagued him since late August. James Hudson has operated the whole year as the top reserve option at left tackle behind Andrew Thomas. The health and availability of Ezeudu could add further depth to the Giants' offensive line situation.

Ezeudu (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve with a designation to return Tuesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official website reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ezeudu appears to have suffered an undisclosed injury with the Giants during training camp, and he will now be forced to miss at least four contests to open the 2025 campaign. In his absence, James Hudson will operate as the top reserve option at left tackle behind Andrew Thomas.

Ezeudu (knee) does not carry an injury designation into Sunday's matchup with the Commanders, Patricia Traina of SI.com reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ezeudu had his knee drained earlier in the week and was originally considered unlikely to play in Week 9, but he now appears to be ready to go. He'll operate as the top reserve option behind Chris Hubbard at left tackle against Washington.

Head coach Brian Daboll told reporters that Ezeudu had his knee drained and won't practice Wednesday, Paul Schwartz of the New York Post reports.

EDGE Analysis

Schwartz also noted that Daboll didn't sound optimistic regarding Ezeudu's availability in Week 9's matchup against the Commanders. Regardless, the third-year tackle from North Carolina will likely need to upgrade to at least limited participation Thursday or Friday in order to suit up Sunday.

Ezeudu took practice reps at left tackle during OTAs on Monday, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Ezeudu struggled at left tackle last season when he filled in for an injured Andrew Thomas, but coach Brian Daboll wants to keep a contingency plan in place in case the latter gets hurt again. If he's on the first unit this season, Ezeudu projects to most likely fill a starting role at guard.
