Olivier Vernon carted off field with an ankle injury

New York Giants starting outside linebacker and defensive end Olivier Vernon left practice today with an apparent ankle injury.

The Vernon reportedly got his foot tangled while working through blocks in practice Sunday afternoon, and was carted off the field.

Olivier Vernon got carted off during practice. Didn’t see what happened. He had his right cleat off. Didn’t appear to be in significant pain, but impossible to speculate on what happened/the severity.
