The New York Giants will be shorthanded in the secondary entering their game against Dak Prescott, CeeDee Lamb and the Dallas Cowboys on Thursday in East Rutherford, N.J.
The Giants (1-2) ruled out cornerbacks Adoree' Jackson and Dru Phillips on Wednesday. Neither player participated in the team's walk-through sessions this week due to their respective calf injuries.
Jackson, 29, has just three tackles in three games this season while Phillips, 22, has recorded 17 tackles, one sack and one forced fumble.
New York also listed wide receiver Darius Slayton as questionable due to a thumb injury. Slayton, 27, has seven catches for 66 yards in three games this season.
The Cowboys (1-2) listed two defensive backs as doubtful: safety Markquese Bell (ankle) and rookie cornerback Caelen Carson (shoulder). Neither has practiced all week.
Bell, 25, has recorded two tackles in three games in his third season with Dallas. Carson, 22, has posted 15 tackles and two passes defensed in three starts.
