Devontae Booker Leaves Game With Hip Contusion, Questionable To Return

Devontae Booker, the Giants backup running back, appeared to suffer a hip contusion and is questionable to return. Booker, who is starting for the injured Saquon Barkley, took a shoulder hit to his hip in the fourth quarter of the Raiders game and went to the locker room. By video, the injury did not look serious and Booker has a chance to return, although there isn't much time left in the game. Elijhaa Penny will handle the running back duties. 

Update

After the game, Booker said his hip felt "great" and he could have come back in at the end of the game. The Giants get a bye next week and Barkley will likely be back Week 11 to play against the Buccaneers.
