Giants' Devonta Freeman (ankle) doesn't practice Wednesday
New York Giants running back Devonta Freeman did not practice Wednesday ahead of the team's Week 9 game against the Washington Football Team.
What It Means:
Freeman hasn't practiced since injuring his ankle on Thursday Night Football against the Philadelphia in Week 7. Failing to have any participation to start the week is disconcerting, though as a veteran, he may only need a minor appearance on Thursday or Friday to get the go-ahead from the trainers. Keep a close eye on the team's injury reports over the next 72 hours. If Freeman is held out again, Wayne Gallman, Alfred Morris and Dion Lewis would be in line for an increased workload.
Washington has been average against opposing ground attacks thus far, ranking 15th in the NFL in adjusted net expected points allowed per run play.
