  • Giants' Micah McFadden: Ties for team lead in stops Week 4

    McFadden registered eight tackles (five solo), including one for loss, in Thursday's defeat against Dallas.

    McFadden was a limited practice participant to begin the week due to a back injury, but he was able to suit up for the Thursday night game and logged 75 percent of New York's defensive snaps. After not seeing the field Week 1, McFadden has started each of the Giants' three games since and has averaged nine tackles while tallying 1.5 sacks during that span.

  • Giants' Micah McFadden: Suiting up Thursday night

    McFadden (back) has no injury designation ahead of Thursday night's game against the Cowboys, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    McFadden sustained a back injury during the Giants' Week 3 win over the Browns, but after a week of limited practice sessions, he'll suit up Thursday night. Expect the 24-year-old to start alongside Bobby Okereke as part of the Giants' top inside linebacker duo in Week 4.

  • Giants' Micah McFadden: Limited on Monday's estimation

    McFadden (back) was listed as a limited participant on Monday's practice estimation, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    McFadden exited and returned to Sunday's win over the Browns due to a back injury, recording six total tackles, including 0.5 sacks, while playing 48 defensive snaps. His participation Tuesday and Wednesday will likely provide a better indication of whether the third-year linebacker will be able to suit up for Thursday night's divisional matchup against the Cowboys.

  • Giants' Micah McFadden: Returns to Sunday's game

    McFadden (back) has returned to Sunday's game against the Browns, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

    McFadden was deemed questionable to return after sustaining a back injury, but the 2022 fifth-round pick is back on the field for the Giants.

  • Giants' Micah McFadden: Questionable to return Sunday

    McFadden is questionable to return to Sunday's game against Cleveland due to a back injury, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    McFadden walked off the field with training staff following a tackle on Jerome Ford. Ty Summers and Darius Muasau are candidates to see more snaps at inside linebacker alongside starter Bobby Okereke while McFadden is sidelined.

  • Giants' Micah McFadden: Racks up 13 stops Week 2

    McFadden tallied 13 tackles (seven solo), including one sack, in a loss to the Commanders on Sunday.

    McFadden didn't see the field Week 1 against Minnesota, but he got the start Sunday with Darius Muasau out with a knee injury. McFadden took advantage of the opportunity with a team-leading tackle total that included a third-quarter sack of Jayden Daniels. McFadden did briefly leave the game with an injury in the second quarter, but he was able to return and finish out the contest. It remains to be seen how he'll be used moving forward, and Muasau's injury status could certainly play a part in McFadden's snap count.

  • Giants' Micah McFadden: Past groin injury

    McFadden (groin) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's Week 1 contest against the Vikings, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    McFadden was limited earlier in the week due to a groin injury, but it appears he's moved past the issue just in time for the Giants' regular-season opener Sunday. The 24-year-old is expected to line up alongside Bobby Okereke as part of the Giants' top inside linebacker duo in 2024.

  • Giants' Micah McFadden: Still dealing with injury

    McFadden (groin) was limited during practice Wednesday, Charlotte Carroll of The Athletic reports.

    McFadden was carted off the field during an Aug. 17 preseason game against the Texans and was considered week-to-week due to a hip injury, which has been reclassified as a groin issue ahead of Week 1. His ability to be on the field Wednesday puts him on a trajectory to potentially suit up Sunday against the Vikings, especially if he can ramp up his workload as the week moves along. If McFadden is unable to play, Carter Coughlin (lower body) and rookie Darius Muasau would both be candidates for an increased workload.

  • Giants' Micah McFadden: Avoids significant injury

    McFadden is considered week-to-week, according to head coach Brian Daboll, after he suffered a hip injury in Saturday's preseason game against Houston, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    McFadden needed to be carted off the field, but it appears the injury won't derail his season. With more than two weeks until the Giants kick off their 2024 campaign against the Vikings on Sept. 8, the Indiana product may not miss any regular-season time.

  • Giants' Micah McFadden: Tending to hip injury

    McFadden (hip) is questionable to return to Saturday's preseason game at Houston, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

    At this point, it's not clear just how serious the issue may be for McFadden. Until he's able to return to action, rookie sixth-rounder Darius Muasau could see an uptick in playing time.

  • Giants' Micah McFadden: Slated for big role in 2024

    McFadden is listed as a starter at inside linebacker on the Giants' initial unofficial depth chart, per Dan Salomone of the team's official site.

    After making seven starts over 17 regular-season games in his rookie campaign, McFadden started 14 of his 16 contests last season. However, the two games in which he didn't start came late in the campaign (Week 16 and 17), with Isaiah Simmons taking his place in the lineup for those matchups. Simmons is undergoing a position change, though, as he's listed as a nickel corner on New York's initial depth chart. That should open the door for McFadden to hang onto a starting role, and he makes for a potential target in IDP leagues after notching 101 tackles (including 1.0 sacks) and an interception last season.

  • Giants' Micah McFadden: Sees increased role in Year 2

    McFadden played in 16 games during the 2023 season, recording 101 tackles (63 solo), including 1.0 sacks, along with an interception and four recovered fumbles.

    McFadden grew into a larger role in his second NFL campaign, tallying nearly 300 more defensive snaps despite playing in one fewer contest. The 2022 fifth-round draft pick ranked third on the Giants in stops and tied for the team lead with 12 tackles for loss. McFadden's strong season solidified his place in New York's plans moving forward, and with two years remaining on his rookie contract, he's set to return as a key piece of the team's defensive unit next season.

  • Giants' Micah McFadden: Tallies six stops Week 9

    McFadden recorded six tackles (three solo), including two for loss, in Sunday's loss to the Ravens.

    McFadden logged a season-high 80 percent of New York's defensive snaps and posted his highest tackle total since Week 6. The second-year linebacker has established a relatively reliable floor as an IDP, notching at least five stops in each of his eight games this year. McFadden has 54 tackles (31 solo) overall.
