New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers will miss a second straight game with a concussion. Head coach Brian Daboll said on Thursday that the rookie wideout was in the “same spot” in concussion protocol.

On Friday, Nabers was official ruled out for Sunday night’s game against the Cincinnati Bengals.

Nabers missed last week’s win over the Seattle Seahawks after suffering the injury during the Giants’ Week 4 game against the Dallas Cowboys. He still leads the NFL in receptions with 35 and is eighth in receiving yards with 386.

Nabers isn’t the only injury concern for the Giants. Linebacker Kayvon Thibodeaux is week-to-week after undergoing wrist surgery to repair a fractured scaphoid bone. There is no timeline for a return and the team is not sure if he’ll need to be placed on injured reserve.

The Indianapolis Colts may get their QB1 back this Sunday against the Tennessee Titans.

Anthony Richardson suffered an oblique injury against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 4 and missed last week’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars. On Friday, head coach Shane Steichen said Richardson will be a game-time decision

Richardson said this week that he feels much better than he did a week ago.

“Of course dealing with injuries, nobody wants to be on the sideline, but I’m just working with the trainers day-by-day,” Richardson said. “I’m in here in the morning making sure I’m getting my body right and I’m also in the film room and the meeting room making sure I am prepared if I am playing.”

Colts running back Jonathan Taylor, meanwhile, will miss his second straight game with a high ankle sprain.

The ankle injury is on the same ankle that has bothered Taylor in the past. It is reportedly not as severe, but it’s unknown how much more time he will miss.

While Justin Fields looks to start again for the Steelers this week against the Las Vegas Raiders, Russell Wilson is closer to returning.

The veteran quarterback practiced fully with the team this week as he recovers from a calf injury.

“I feel confident that I’ll be ready to play … and play at a high level,” Wilson said. “I think we’re being really smart, too, and trying to understand exactly how I feel.”

Wilson has not played this season and has only served as the team’s emergency quarterback and not the backup to Fields. Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said on Friday that it’s likely Wilson will be active on Sunday.
