For a guy who wanted more contact in practices during training camp, Giants linebacker Jon Beason hasn’t had much success staying in games.

Beason left tonight’s game against the Jaguars with a left knee sprain, and the team announced he won’t return. He was sitting on the sidelines with a large ice wrap on the knee.

Beason has missed 40 games with a variety of injuries the last four seasons, after not missing a game his first four with the Panthers.

While he’s a dynamic player and natural leader on the field when he’s well, he’s had a hard time staying that way for the Giants.
