Giants cornerback Adoree Jackson was carted off the field during joint practice with the Patriots on Wednesday, and according to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Jackson suffered a sprained ankle.
Per Rapoport, Jackson is dealing with “significant swelling” and will undergo tests to determine the severity of the sprain. A grade one sprain could be a day-to-day situation, but a grade two could take weeks to over a month, which would put his status for Week 1 in jeopardy.
Jackson reportedly suffered the injury during team drills, and made his way to a cart to take him off the field.
New York, already struggling with depth in its secondary, signed Jackson to a three-year, $39 million deal this past offseason, but Jackson came to the Giants with injury history, playing in just three games last year after missing five games in 2019.
