The Giants have been no stranger to injury issues in the secondary in recent years and it looks like they haven’t been able to shake the trend in Ben McAdoo’s first year as the head coach.
Safety Nat Berhe made an appearance on Thursday’s injury report with a concussion. The team said that Berhe, who played the entire game last Sunday, reported having a headache on Wednesday and was placed in the concussion protocol after being evaluated by the medical staff.
Berhe joins Darian Thompson on the sideline and Thompson is expected to miss more time as a result of a foot injury. That leaves the team with Landon Collins and Andrew Adams as healthy safeties a few days before a Monday night game against the Vikings.
Veteran corner Leon Hall could be an option to alleviate the issue of missing players, although they may need him at his usual spot with both Dominique Rodgers-Cromarite and Eli Apple dealing with injuries. According to multiple reports, both players were working on the side during the portion of Thursday’s practice open to the media.
