The New York Giants will be without starting safety Landon Collins this week.
NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported Tuesday that Collins is out versus the Washington Redskins after suffering a shoulder injury, per sources informed of the situation.
The two-time Pro Bowl safety injured the shoulder in Sunday's overtime victory over the Chicago Bears. He missed some snaps but returned to the tilt.
The Giants will continue to evaluate the safety's injury moving forward, per Rapoport.
Collins has compiled 96 tackles and four passes defended in 12 starts this season. He's slated to become a free agent in 2019 unless the Giants utilize the franchise tag or extend his contract before the new league year.
