What happened: The receiver was carted off Tuesday after injuring his knee during practice. The diagnosis followed initial concern that the injury was serious.
Why it matters: The Giants lose the player positioned to fill a vacated slot role. His absence creates another receiver-depth issue before the regular season.
By the numbers: The Giants signed the receiver to a one-year, $1.5 million contract in March, with $450,000 guaranteed.
What to watch: The Giants must reset their slot rotation before Friday's preseason finale.
