Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. went down and left the Giants’ 22-9 loss to the Chiefs with a shoulder injury after taking a hit along the Chiefs’ sideline after he caught a short 3-yard pass from Russell Wilson at MetLife Stadium on Sunday night.
The injury occurred during a second-and-8 near midfield after Tracy made the catch and then took a punishing hit from Chiefs cornerback Jaylen Watson.
Tracy pointed to his shoulder as he was down on the ground and was listed as questionable to return with a shoulder injury, before the team eventually ruled him out for the remainder of the night.
