  Giants | NY Giants' injury report for Week 15    Fri Dec 15, 03:29 PM

New York Giants OT Evan Neal (ankle) was limited in practice all week and is listed as doubtful for Week 15 against the New Orleans Saints. DL Dexter Lawrence (hamstring), TE Darren Waller (hamstring) and OL Justin Pugh (calf) were limited in practice on Friday, Dec. 15, and are listed as questionable. CB Cor'Dale Flott (shoulder), DL A'Shawn Robinson (hamstring, finger), LB Isaiah Simmons (ankle), LB Cam Brown (hamstring) and WR Wan'Dale Robinson (quad) were limited in practice on Friday but have been removed from the injury report. LB Azeez Ojulari (shoulder) and WR Parris Campbell (knee) practiced in full on Friday and also no longer appear on the injury report.

Footballguys view: Waller could return against the Saints, but a pitch count is possible, limiting his involvement in the offense. Tommy DeVito has been much better than expected, but Waller is still only a desperation play at tight end until we see him get through a game and produce.

Arizona Cardinals first-round pick LB Isaiah Simmons signed a fully guaranteed four-year, $20.66 million deal Tuesday, July 21. The deal includes a $12.58 million signing bonus.

Clemson LB Isaiah Simmons has scouts split on whether he'll play linebacker or safety in the NFL, but speaking Wednesday, April 22, on NFL Network, he said his versatility is a good thing. 'You only get 53 (players) on a roster. I feel like if you draft me, you get 56,' Simmons said.
