When it comes to injuries and the New York Giants, when it rains, it pours.

Earlier in the game, left tackle Andrew Thomas, playing in his second game after missing seven contests with a hamstring injury suffered in Week 1, left the game with a knee injury but was able to return. During his absence, Justin Pugh moved to left tackle, and Marcus McKethan came in at left guard. 

Outside linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux was ruled out of the game with a concussion suffered in the third quarter. Cornerbacks Cor'Dale Flott (shoulder) and Deonte Banks (ankle) also exited the game in the third quarter.

Both Flott and Banks were initially listed as questionable to return. Flott was ruled out to start the fourth quarter. 

Running back Saquon Barkley appeared to tweak his right ankle and was spotted getting it retaped on the sideline. The rookie wide receiver appeared to be dinged on quarterback Tommy DeVito's pass that was intended for him in the third quarter but was picked off. 

Hyatt was ruled out with a concussion. Barkley, however, continued to play after getting his ankle re-taped, though he continued to look hobbled by his ankle.
