Engram (ribs), who didn't practice Wednesday, is hopeful that he'll play Sunday against the Redskins, Dan Duggan of NJ.com reports.

Engram was knocked out of the Week 16 loss to Arizona due to a rib injury. On Wednesday, he confirmed reports that his X-rays returned negative earlier this week and that he's merely dealing with bruising and discomfort within the ribs on his left side. In order to achieve his goal of suiting up this weekend, Engram would be best served with an appearance in practice Thursday and/or Friday, at which point the Giants will determine his potential availability for the season finale.
