New York has one huge name in the injury report: Saquon Barkley, who is doubtful with an ankle injury.

Latest Injury Report News and Updates
Barkley is doubtful to play with an ankle injury he suffered in Week 2 against the Arizona Cardinals. The Giants played without him last week in a 30-12 loss against the San Francisco 49ers.
Matt Breida filled in for Barkley and rushed for 17 yards on four carries with a touchdown, but New York only rushed 11 times for 29 yards against the tough 49ers defense. Thomas missing the game will add another challenge to the run game.
The big injury news for the Seahawks is that Adams will make his season debut. He hasn’t played since injuring his leg in the season opener last season.
In fact, since being acquired by Seattle in a 2020 trade with the New York Jets, Adams has missed 25 games. He has also missed time with shoulder, groin, elbow, and finger injuries over the last three seasons. At one point, Adams said he considered retiring because of the number of injuries.

The Seahawks’ secondary is in bad shape, with cornerbacks Tre Brown and Artie Burns already ruled out. Cornerback Coby Bryant is also doubtful with an injured toe. Meanwhile, starting defensive end Dre’Mont Jones, linebacker Derick Hall, and Will Dissly are all questionable.
