wide receiver Golden Tate.Tate was suspended for four games in July for violating the league’s
performance-enhancing drug policy and then had his appeal of that ban rejected
by an independent arbitrator. Tate will miss the opening weeks of the
season
Youth Saquon Barkley Jerseys , but is able to practice and play in the preseason.That didn’t work out well for him on Friday night. Giants head coach
Pat Shurmur said that Tate suffered a concussion in the team’s game against the
Bears and he will be out of action until he passes the tests required by the
league’s concussion protocol.Given the suspension, there’s plenty of time for
Tate to recover before he’d be eligible to play in a regular season game. There
are only a few days before the Giants’ next preseason game, however, and that
may leave Tate to play spectator in Cincinnati on Thursday night. EAST

Giants after playing last season for the Rams; inside backer Alec Ogletree was
acquired in a trade on March 14.To create room on the roster, the Giants waived
tight end Kyle Carter.”Connor and I were together in Philadelphia,” said coach
Pat Shurmur
Youth Lorenzo Carter Jerseys , who has taken over a team that won three games last season. ”Veteran player, edge player, so he could play the outside
linebacker position, he could be involved in the pass rush when we get to our
four-man rush. Very veteran guy and I think if you don’t know him
Lorenzo Carter Jerseys Stitched , you’ll quickly get to see that he’s a true pro and we were fortunate he was available.”The Giants also signed defensive tackle
