Giants' Brian Burns: Cleared to face Pittsburgh
The Giants announced Saturday that Burns (groin/Achilles) does not carry an injury designation for Monday's road game against the Steelers, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.
Burns missed practice Friday and seemed initially to be trending in the wrong direction for Week 8, but New York may merely have been capping his practice reps. The standout defensive end has tallied one sack in each of his last three games, and he'll look to keep up his momentum versus Russell Wilson and the Pittsburgh offense on Monday.

Giants' Brian Burns: Misses Friday's practice
Burns (groin/Achilles) didn't practice Friday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Burns appears to be trending in the wrong direction ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Steelers, as he downgraded from limited work Thursday to a DNP on Friday. The first-year Giant will likely need to upgrade to at least limited participation in Saturday's practice to have a chance at suiting up in Week 8.

Giants' Brian Burns: Limited to open week
Burns (groin/Achilles) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Burns has been playing through a groin injury for most of the regular season, so his presence on the Giants' first injury report of the week isn't surprising. However, it appears he may have tweaked his Achilles during the Giants' Week 7 loss to the Eagles, so his practice participation over the next two days is worth monitoring. Through the first seven games of the regular season, Burns has logged 27 tackles (18 solo), including 4.0 sacks, six pass breakups and one forced fumble.

Giants' Brian Burns: Will play vs. Philly
Burns (groin) is active for Sunday's game against the Eagles, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Despite opening the week with back-to-back DNPs, Burns earned a questionable tag after logging a limited practice session Friday. It was enough for him to be able to play Sunday, though he's unlikely to be at 100 percent health. Burns has had a strong start to his tenure with the Giants, having registered 23 tackles (15 solo), including 3.0 sacks, five pass breakups and one forced fumble through the first six games of the regular season.

Giants' Brian Burns: Questionable for Week 7
Burns (groin) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Eagles, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
Burns upgraded to a limited session Friday after beginning the Giants' week of practice with consecutive DNPs, so it appears he's trending towards playing in Week 7. Nonetheless, if the first-year Giant can't suit up for Sunday's divisional matchup, expect Boogie Basham and Patrick Johnson to see additional reps with New York's first-team defense.

Giants' Brian Burns: Doesn't practice Thursday
Burns (groin) did not practice Thursday, Charlotte Carroll of The Athletic reports.
Burns has opened the week with back-to-back DNPs due to a groin injury. The 2019 first-round pick said he expects to play Sunday against the Eagles, but that optimism could fade if he's unable to practice in at least a limited capacity Friday. Through the first six games of the regular season, Burns has registered 23 tackles (15 solo), including 3.0 sacks, five pass breakups and one forced fumble.

Giants' Brian Burns: Misses Wednesday's practice
Burns (groin) didn't practice Wednesday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Raanan also reported that Burns said he's "good," and there's no doubt that he'll suit up for the Giants' Week 7 matchup against the Eagles. Burns has impressed thus far, recording 23 total tackles, including 3.0 sacks, and defending five passes through the Giants' first six games. Expect the first-year Giant to continue playing through this groin issue unless he logs another DNP either Thursday or Friday.

Giants' Brian Burns: Notches sack among eight stops
Burns recorded eight tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, in a Week 6 loss to the Bengals on Sunday.

His eight tackles were a season high, and he picked up a sack of Joe Burrow on the Bengals' first drive of the game. In his first campaign with New York, Burns has 23 tackles (15 solo), including 3.0 sacks, along with five defensed passes and a forced fumble through six games.

Giants' Brian Burns: Ready to rock
Burns (groin) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Bengals, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
The 26-year-old was able to log a week of limited practice sessions and will continue to play through his groin issue in Week 6. Burns has recorded 15 total tackles, including 2.0 sacks, and defended five passes across New York's first five contests this season. The first-year Giant will be without his co-star in Kayvon Thibodeaux on Sunday, so Burns will likely start opposite Azeez Ojulari.

Giants' Brian Burns: Limited Wednesday
Burns (groin) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Burnes played through a groin issue and logged two total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and defended two passes across 47 defensive snaps in the Giants' Week 5 win over the Seahawks. It appears likely that the Giants are being cautious with their Pro Bowl edge rusher's groin issue. His participation Thursday and Friday will provide a better indication of his availability in Week 6, when the Giants host the Bengals.

Giants' Brian Burns: Added to injury report
Burns (groin) was a limited participant during practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Burns handled his typical workload in last Thursday's loss to the Cowboys, so it's not exactly clear when he suffered the injury unless it happened during practice. The veteran pass rusher will try and ramp up his activity Friday in the team's final practice before heading to Seattle for a Week 5 matchup Sunday.
