Sterling Shepard, Darius Slayton Do Not Practice With Hamstring Injuries

New York Giants wide receivers Sterling Shepard and Darius Slayton did not practice Wednesday as they both recover from hamstring injuries they suffered on Sunday. Slayton suffered the injury in the first quarter and Shepard left the game injured in the second quarter. It is difficult to judge the severity of hamstring injuries by video, but we expect the Giants to be without both receivers for their Week 4 matchup against the 2-1 Saints. Veteran wide receiver Kenny Golladay was limited in practice Wednesday with a hip injury that caused him to be limited in practice last week too. Golladay played through the injury Week 3 and caught four passes for 64 yards. We are not worried about his status for Week 4. Tight end Evan Engram made his return from a calf injury last week, but had only two catches for 21 yards and a fumble. Engram was not on the injury report Wednesday.
