In this episode of "2 Giant Goofballs: A New York Giants Podcast," Drew and Rob dive into the latest updates from the Giants' injury report as the preseason intensifies. Tyrone Tracy Jr. had a scare during training camp when he went down untouched after muffing a kickoff. Initially feared to be a season-ending injury, it's been confirmed that Tracy Jr. is dealing with an ankle sprain, and he’s expected to be sidelined until late August or early September.

Dante "Turbo" Miller's availability for the upcoming game against the Texans is uncertain due to a hamstring issue that limited him in practice on Tuesday. Malik Nabers is also facing a low ankle sprain but remains optimistic about his readiness for Week 1. He hasn’t ruled out playing in the preseason finale against the Jets, but the hosts ponder whether missing time in camp could affect his start to the season. They even draw parallels to Odell Beckham Jr.'s explosive rookie year after returning from injury.

Lawrence Cager is dealing with a groin injury, and head coach Brian Daboll has indicated that Cager will be out for a while, listing him as week to week. Jon Runyan Jr. also got banged up during Monday's practice, hurting his shoulder. While the injury doesn’t appear serious, the Giants are taking precautions by likely keeping him out for a bit, prioritizing his health for the regular season.

On a brighter note, Evan Neal and John Michael Schmitz are back in team drills and seem to be on track for Saturday’s game. Andru Phillips missed practice with an ankle injury, but Daboll assured it’s nothing major. Gervarrius Owens, however, missed Sunday’s practice due to a knee injury, and while the severity remains unknown, a long absence could jeopardize his spot on the roster.

Lastly, Drew and Rob discuss the implications of Vikings QB JJ McCarthy’s season-ending surgery on the torn meniscus, making it official that he won’t be facing the Giants this season. The big question now is whether Sam Darnold will step up as the starting quarterback for the Vikings or if they might look to bring in a veteran like Ryan Tannehill as a stopgap solution.
