Seems ready to return
The Giants utilized a return designation for Ezeudu (calf) Aug. 27, and he seems ready to return to the practice field, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Absent with an undisclosed injury all season, Ezeudu is revealed to have worked his way back from a calf injury that had plagued him since late August. James Hudson has operated the whole year as the top reserve option at left tackle behind Andrew Thomas. The health and availability of Ezeudu could add further depth to the Giants' offensive line situation.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Working at LT while Thomas recovers
Jordan Raanan of ESPN observes that Ezeudu has worked as the first-team left tackle while Andrew Thomas recovers from an ankle injury.
ANALYSIS
Ezeudu's versatility is part of what helped make him a Day 2 draft pick in 2022, as the Giants selected him in the third round out of USC. The rookie's most immediate route to playing time is at left guard, but if Thomas misses time in the regular season, Ezeudu could be next in line to protect the quarterback's blind side.
