Abdul Carter returned to limited practice Friday, but the Giants left his availability against New Orleans undecided. The outside linebacker is questionable with a calf injury, alongside starting tackles Andrew Thomas and Jermaine Eluemunor on the team's final injury report.
Carter and Eluemunor have calf injuries, while Thomas has a groin injury. All three missed Wednesday and Thursday before returning to limited work Friday. ESPN's Jordan Raanan reported the final designations after seeing all three in uniform earlier in the day.
The decisions affect both sides of the line for a Giants team entering Sunday at 3-1-1. NBC Sports' Josh Alper also reported Carter's return and the questionable designations for both tackles.
