Burns (hip) is active for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.
Burns (hip) is questionable for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Is a lethal edge rusher and a horror show for pass protectors; a rare combination of athleticism and speed presents matchup problems for blockers. Uses raw quickness and a long stride to infiltrate the backfield as a persistent outside sack threat, create havoc and force turnovers. Deployed as a stand-up defensive end in college, he is ideally suited to a hybrid role in the pros. Lacks the sheer mass and heavy limbs to stand his ground as a down lineman at the NFL level.
Long Range Potential: Talented, hybrid edge rusher and sack specialist with upside.
