Giants' Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles: Misses seven games in 2025
Flannigan-Fowles registered 33 tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and one defensed pass over 10 games (three starts) during the 2025 campaign.
It was a rough first season in New York health-wise for Flannigan-Fowles -- his seven missed games came as a result of multiple issues, including injuries to his calf, hamstring and neck as well as an illness. Still, he saw more playing time on defense than in previous campaigns and finished with career-high marks in defensive snaps (224) and tackles (33). Flannigan-Fowles was playing on a one-year contract, so he's now slated to be an unrestricted free agent.

Giants' Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles: Logs full practice Wednesday
Flannigan-Fowles (illness) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Flannigan Fowles was unable to play against the Vikings in Week 16 due to an illness, but he appears to be over that issue and on track to play against the Raiders on Sunday. He has accumulated 23 tackles (16 solo) and one pass defense over his last five games.

Giants' Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles: Will be absent for Week 16
Flannigan-Fowles is inactive for Sunday's battle versus the Vikings due to an illness, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Flannigan-Fowles has been battling the illness for over a week, and though he was able to play last Sunday against Washington, all of his work came on special teams. The veteran linebacker logged a DNP/DNP/LP practice progression this week and is going to have to miss his seventh game of the campaign. With Darius Muasau in his second week back from a four-game absence, Flannigan-Fowles may have had a minor role on defense even if he had been able to suit up.

Giants' Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles: Questionable for Sunday
Flannigan-Fowles (illness) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Vikings, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Flannigan-Fowles upgraded from DNPs on Wednesday and Thursday to a limited session Friday, suggesting that he's trending in the right direction ahead of Sunday's contest. The 29-year-old has appeared in eight games this season, recording 24 total tackles and one pass defensed. If active for the Week 16 matchup, Flannigan-Fowles will likely play a reserve role in the Giants' linebacker corps.

Giants' Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles: Absent from practice
Flannigan-Fowles (illness) did not participate at practice Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Flannigan-Fowles appears to still be dealing with the illness that caused him to be considered questionable to play in Week 15 before ultimately logging five snaps on special teams in the team's loss to the Commanders. The linebacker will have two more chances to return to practice before Sunday's contest against the Vikings.

Giants' Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles: Active for Week 15
Flannigan-Fowles (illness/neck) is active for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Flannigan-Fowles opened Week 15 prep with back-to-back full practices before not participating in Friday's session due to an illness. He has been cleared to play Sunday after going through pregame warmups, but he'll likely lose his starting spot to Darius Muasau, who was activated from injured reserve Saturday after missing the Giants' past four games due to an ankle injury.

Giants' Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles: Questionable for Sunday
Flannigan-Fowles (illness/neck) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Commanders, Matt Citak of the Giants' official site reports.
Flannigan-Fowles was a full participant in Wednesday and Thursday's practice sessions before failing to participate Friday. It is unclear if the linebacker missed the session purely due to illness or if he potentially also suffered a setback with his neck injury. If the starter cannot suit up, Zaire Barnes and Neville Hewitt will likely see an increased snap share at inside linebacker. Darius Muasau (ankle) has been designated to return from IR and could also look to reclaim a starting role if he can play.

Giants' Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles: Practicing in full
Flannigan-Fowles (neck) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, Matt Citak of the Giants' official site reports.
Flannigan-Fowles missed Week 13 due to a neck injury, but he's emerged from New York's bye week at full health. Barring any setbacks, Flannigan-Fowles can be considered on track to contribute at inside linebacker during Sunday's game against the Commanders. That said, Darius Muasau (ankle) has been designated to return from IR and practiced in full Wednesday, and if he's cleared to retake the field versus Washington, Flannigan-Fowles' role on defense will stand to decrease.

Giants' Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles: Unavailable for MNF
Flannigan-Fowles (neck) is inactive for Monday night's contest against New England, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Flannigan-Fowles was unable to participate at either of the team's first two sessions of the week before returning as a limited participant at Saturday's final practice prior to Monday Night Football. The linebacker is dealing with neck and knee injuries, and he will now be forced to miss at least one contest as a result. In his absence, Neville Hewitt and Zaire Barnes are top candidates to see an increase in workload at linebacker versus the Patriots.

Giants' Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles: Questionable for Week 13
Flannigan-Fowles (neck) is listed as questionable ahead of Monday night's matchup against the Patriots, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Despite his questionable designation, Flannigan-Fowles is likely trending toward not playing Monday after beginning the Giants' week of practice with consecutive DNPs. The 29-year-old has appeared in seven games this season, recording 24 total tackles and one pass defensed. If he's inactive for the Week 13 contest, Neville Hewitt and Zaire Barnes could have expanded roles in the Giants' linebacker corps.

The 29-year-old upgraded from a DNP on Wednesday to a full practice session Friday, suggesting he's moved past his illness in time to play Sunday. Now fully healthy, Flannigan-Fowles is expected to operate as one of the Giants' top linebackers in Week 12.
