Giants Tight End Won't Play On Thursday`

They would have loved to get him back this week.

Unfortunately, New York Giants tight end Daniel Bellinger won't play in Thursday's game against the Dallas Cowboys.

Giants will rule out TE Daniel Bellinger and CB Adoree' Jackson for Thursday's game, per Daboll.

Jackson not going on IR just yet, and he's feeling better today, according to Daboll.

Bellinger will miss a fourth game in a row due to a fractured left eye socket. Until he gets some practice reps in, the rookie tight end won't be able to return to game action. On one positive note, he did resume catching passes last week. 

In seven games this season, the twenty-two-year-old has 16 receptions for 152 yards and two touchdowns. Bellinger was the Giants' fourth-round pick in this year's draft.

In his place, Lawrence Cager has filled in, and will continue to, at tight end.
