Fox (hamstring) played on 19 defensive snaps and two special-teams snaps during New York's preseason victory versus Detroit on Saturday.
Fox didn't record any defensive snaps in the game, but he importantly returned to action after sitting out the Giants' preseason opener due to a hamstring issue. The return to health could be critical for Fox, as he's battling to earn a spot on the team's 53-man roster.

Giants' Tomon Fox: Missing Monday's practice
Rotowire
Head coach Brian Daboll told reporters that Fox (hamstring) won't practice Monday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Fox now seems to be dealing with a hamstring issue that sidelined him Monday. The severity of Fox's injury is currently unknown, but once the North Carolina product returns to the field, he's expected to compete for a depth role in the Giants' linebacker corps.
Fox recorded eight tackles (six solo) and two tackles for loss in Sunday's 27-13 loss to the Seahawks.
The backup linebacker again saw increased playing time with starter Oshane Ximines (quadriceps) sidelined for the second game in a row, tying with Julian Love and Leonard Williams for the team lead in stops against Seattle. Fox could see his defensive snaps fall if Ximines is able to return for the Giants' next contest against Houston on Sunday, Nov. 13.
