Burns recorded nine tackles (four solo), including 1.0 sacks, during Sunday's 20-17 overtime loss against the Panthers. Burns' nine tackles against his former team was a season high for him, and his sack was his sixth in his last eight games. He's on pace for the second double-digit sack season of his career, and his next chance to build on his year-long total will come in Week 12 versus the Buccaneers.

Burns recorded four tackles (one solo) and a pass deflection during the Giants' loss to Washington on Sunday. Burns had a solid outing despite the loss and has now logged at least four tackles in four straight games. The 2019 first-round pick will look to keep producing during the team's Week 10 matchup versus the Panthers.

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.

Burns registered four tackles (three solo), including 1.0 sacks, in the Giants' loss versus Philadelphia on Sunday. Burns was one of four New York defenders to bring down Jalen Hurts for a sack during Sunday's blowout loss. The 2019 first-round pick has now recorded a sack in three of his past four games.

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.
