Neal tweaked his ankle during Thursday's practice, but, as expected, he avoided a significant injury and is cleared for Sunday's wild-card matchup. The rookie first-round pick has been a stalwart on the right side of the Giants' offensive line this year.

Giants' Evan Neal: Tweaks ankle at practice
Neal suffered a minor ankle injury at practice Thursday, but it shouldn't impact his chance to play Sunday versus the Vikings, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Neal has turned into one of the most important players on the Giants' roster this season, operating as the team's starting right tackle, so his absence would be substantial if he couldn't go in the wild-card round. The rookie was able to log a limited practice Thursday following the injury, which makes it likely that he'll be able to play versus Minnesota on Sunday. Neal's status will be worth monitoring moving forward, and more clarity on his availability will come following Friday's practice session.

Giants' Evan Neal: Could be back this week
According to Giants head coach Brian Daboll, Neal (knee) is improving and has a chance to return to action this Sunday against the Commanders, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.
Neal suffered an MCL injury Week 7 against Jacksonville and has been unable to play since. However, he logged a trio of limited practice sessions Week 11 and two more Week 12 before missing the Giants' third practice and sitting out last Thursday's loss to Dallas. His participation level in practice this week will go a long way in determining his potential availability Sunday.

Giants' Evan Neal: Remains out
Neal (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's matchup against Dallas, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Neal hasn't played since Week 7 due to a lingering knee issue. In his absence, Tyre Phillips (neck) has been operating as the starting right tackle, but he's listed as questionable for the Thanksgiving Day matchup. Neal's next chance to suit up will come in Week 13 against Washington.
