Week 1 did not go well for the New York Giants. That much is already clear. A 21-6 loss to a division rival, Russell Wilson looking like he played his last game (and sounding like it too), and an offensive line doing everything but blocking. If that wasn’t enough, the injury bug wasted no time making its first house call.
The game had barely settled into a rhythm before starting linebacker Micah McFadden went down awkwardly trying to bring down Washington running back Austin Ekeler. He stayed on the ground, didn’t get up, and before anyone could process what had happened, the cart was already on its way to pick him up.
