Officially, he’s questionable. Unofficially, he’s very questionable.

But Giants defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul could still play on Sunday night against the Cowboys, roughly 12 weeks removed from back surgery.

Per a source with knowledge of the situation, it’s truly a game-time decision, with Pierre-Paul currently on the borderline to play. His availability will depend largely on how he feels during pre-game warmups.

Likewise, his ability to stay in the game will depend on how he feels once he starts playing.

With the Cowboys struggling to piece together an offensive line, any contributions from Pierre-Paul could help make the difference. Even without him, the Giants could still be in position to chase Tony Romo around all night.
