                        Micah McFadden injury update: Giants LB (foot) placed on IR, will reportedly miss 'significant part' of season

Micah McFadden, a linebacker for the New York Giants, has been placed on injured reserve (IR) due to a foot injury sustained during the team's Week 1 game against the Washington Commanders. The injury occurred while tackling Commanders quarterback Jayden Daniels. The Giants have announced that McFadden will likely miss a "significant part" of the current NFL season as a result of this injury. Placing him on IR means he will be required to miss at least the next four games before becoming eligible to return. This is a significant blow to the Giants' defense, as McFadden was expected to play a key role on the team this season. The Giants will now need to rely on other linebackers to fill the void left by McFadden's absence, as they look to build on their strong start to the 2022 campaign.
