Giants’ Tyrone Tracy in concussion protocol after leaving Monday’s game against Steelers
Giants Lose Cornerback To Concussion
The New York Giants have lost cornerback Tyrone Tracy to a concussion after he left Monday night’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Tracy suffered the injury in the first half of the game and was ruled out at halftime by the team’s medical staff.
Impact On Giants’ Secondary
Tracy’s absence is a significant loss for the Giants’ secondary, as he is one of their starting cornerbacks.
With Tracy out, the Giants will likely turn to veteran cornerback Aaron Robinson to start in his place.
Robinson has started 10 games for the Giants this season and has played well in Tracy’s absence in the past.
Steelers Take Advantage
The Steelers took advantage of Tracy’s absence in the second half, as they scored two touchdowns to take a 24-10 lead.
The Giants’ defense struggled to contain the Steelers’ passing attack without Tracy on the field.
The Steelers’ Ben Roethlisberger threw for 273 yards and two touchdowns in the second half with Tracy out of the game.
Giants’ Playoff Hopes
The Giants’ loss to the Steelers dropped them to 4-11 on the season.
The Giants’ playoff hopes are now on life support, as they need to win their final two games and get help from other teams in order to make the playoffs.
The Giants will host the Indianapolis Colts next Sunday in their final home game of the season.
