Pinnock (abdomen) was left off the Giants' injury report Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Pinnock missed the Giants' Week 10 loss to the Panthers due to an abdomen injury, but his omission from Wednesday's injury report suggests that the team's Week 11 bye provided enough time to recover from the issue. Now that Pinnock is back at full health, he's expected to start alongside Tyler Nubin (back) as part of the Giants' top safety duo.

Rotowire

Giants' Jason Pinnock: Posts another sack
Rotowire
Pinnock recorded seven tackles (two solo), including 1.0 sacks, in a 21-15 victory versus the Browns on Sunday.
Pinnock's sack came early in the third quarter and pushed Cleveland back five yards on third down, which may have been a factor in Dustin Hopkins missing a 53-yard field-goal try on the next play. Pinnock has already set a career high with three sacks this season, exceeding last year's total of two. The safety had only two tackles in Week 1 against Minnesota but has recorded 16 total tackles across two contests since.

Giants' Jason Pinnock: Records two sacks Sunday
Rotowire
Pinnock registered nine tackles (eight solo), including 2.0 sacks, against Washington in Sunday's Week 2 loss.
Pinnock's pair of sacks Sunday equaled the amount he tallied over 16 games and 976 defensive snaps last season. Both takedowns came as a result of Jayden Daniels trying to run rather than throw the ball away while under pressure, so it's probably not wise to assume Pinnock will have many performances like Sunday's. Still, the sacks look good on the stat sheet, as do Pinnock's nine total stops -- last season, he reached that mark only twice.

Rotowire
Pinnock (toe) was considered to be a nonparticipant at the Giants' walk-through Wednesday.
Pinnock suffered a toe injury in New York's narrow loss to the Rams in Week 17, forcing him to exit the contest in the first quarter, so his absence Wednesday isn't a major surprise.

Giants' Jason Pinnock: Shines with increased opportunity
Rotowire
Pinnock tallied four tackles (three solo) and was credited with 1.5 sacks Sunday in a Week 10 win over the Texans.
Pinnock came into Week 10 having played almost entirely on special teams over his five contests, but he was thrust into a larger role after Xavier McKinney was placed on IR with a hand injury. Pinnock made his presence felt early in the contest, splitting a sack with Dexter Lawrence on Houston's first offensive series. He added a full sack with under a minute left in the contest and logged two solo tackles in between. Pinnock's contributions in the win should earn him continued opportunities moving forward, especially while McKinney remains out.
