Giants TE Engram out Sunday with foot sprain

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Tight end Evan Engram expects to miss Sunday's game against the New York Jets with what the New York Giants are calling a "mid-foot sprain."

Engram had his MRI results of the affected left foot sent to specialist Dr. Robert Anderson for a second opinion, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter. But Engram said later Wednesday there is a belief he "dodged a bullet" and it's not the dreaded Lisfranc sprain that would sideline him for an extended period of time. Engram instead expressed hope that he sits out Sunday's game and returns after the bye the following week against the Chicago Bears.
