His status has been a focal point throughout the week with head coach Brian Daboll not immediately ruling him out, but with Thursday night shortening a window for recovery and treatment, it appears the Giants are exercising caution with their star running back.<\/p>\n<p>The Giants needed six quarters to pass before they scored a touchdown in 2023, but exploded for 31 second-half points in their Week 2 win. They&#8217;ll hope to produce a similar total without Barkley against a much tougher opponent Thursday night.<\/p>\n<p>Also out for New York on <em>Thursday Night Football<\/em> are left tackle Andrew Thomas\u00a0(hamstring), left guard\u00a0Ben Bredeson\u00a0(concussion) and linebacker LB\u00a0\u00a0Azeez Ojulari\u00a0(hamstring).
