In this story:

The New York Giants are in fantastic shape injury-wise for Thursday’s game against the Washington Commanders.

The Giants, who held a walkthrough on Wednesday, projected the practice statuses of their players and listed just one player, outside linebacker Malik Harrison, as receiving an injury designation for the game: questionable. Harrison, who is dealing with a groin injury, was also the only Giants player listed as limited on Wednesday’s injury report.

Everyone else, including quarterback J.J. McCarthy, running back Cam Skattebo and even cornerback Colton Hood, who was added to the report Tuesday with a finger injury, was a full practice participant.

Washington listed two players with game designations: center Lucas Patrick (concussion) and tight end Colson Yankoff (knee). Both have been declared out.

Receiver Treylon Burks (foot) did not receive a game designation, despite being downgraded from limited on Tuesday to a non-participant on Wednesday. The Commanders held walkthroughs Monday and Tuesday and practiced Wednesday.

The Giants host the Commanders on Thursday night.
