Giants' Cor'Dale Flott: Limited Wednesday
Rotowire
Flott (quadriceps) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Patricia Traina of SI.com reports.
The third-year corner from LSU was sidelined for the Giants' Week 15 loss to the Ravens due to a quadriceps injury, so Wednesday's limited session could be a step toward him returning to the field. Flott's practice participation Thursday and Friday will likely serve as the best indication of whether he can play through the issue in Week 16, when the Giants face the Falcons.

Giants' Cor'Dale Flott: Questionable for Week 14
Rotowire
Flott (quadriceps/knee) is questionable to play Sunday against the Saints, Patricia Traina of SI.com reports.
Flott wasn't listed on the injury report for any of the Giants' three practices this past week, but he is now dealing with knee and quadriceps injury that put his status for Sunday's game into question. His official status for Sunday's game may not be known until the Giants announce their inactives list approximately 90 minutes before the 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff. With Deonte Banks (rib) already out and Flott potentially sidelined as well, the Giants would turn to Art Green and Adoree' Jackson to serve as the starting outside cornerbacks.

Rotowire
Flott (groin) was limited in practice Saturday and is listed as doubtful for Monday's game against the Steelers, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.

Giants' Cor'Dale Flott: Remains week-to-week
Rotowire
Flott is still considered week-to-week with a quad injury, Patricia Traina of SI.com reports.
The 2022 third-round pick out of LSU missed the Giants' last week of practice with this quad issue, and it appears that he still needs more time before returning to the field. While Flott remains sidelined, expect Darnay Holmes and Tre Hawkins to see more reps with the Giants' first-team defense.

Giants' Cor'Dale Flott: Gets larger role in second season
Rotowire
Flott tallied 36 tackles (25 solo) and five defensed passes, including one interception, over 14 games in 2023.
Flott missed the first three games of the campaign due primarily to a hamstring injury, but he took over as the Giants' slot corner in Week 4 and logged at least half of the team's defensive snaps in all but three weeks thereafter. The 2022 third-round draft pick performed competently in the role and recorded his first career pickoff in Week 10 against Dallas. Flott has two years remaining on his rookie deal and figures to enter next season slated for a workload similar to that which he was given in 2023.

Giants' Cor'Dale Flott: Plays in 11 games as rookie
Rotowire
Flott tallied 26 tackles (15 solo), two defended passes and a forced fumble in 11 regular-season games during his rookie campaign.
A third-round pick out of LSU, Flott was limited to two special-teams snaps in New York's opening contest of the regular season but got the opportunity start the following week with Aaron Robinson out of action. However, Flott missed all of Weeks 4 through 10 due to a calf injury, and he played under half of the Giants' defensive snaps in four of his eight games following his Week 11 return. Flott turned 21 in August and naturally still needs to further develop to reach his potential, but he showed enough as a rookie to warrant continued opportunities next season.
