The New York Giants returned to practice ahead of a Week 3 game against the Atlanta Falcons on Wednesday, and all eyes were on tight end Evan Engram (calf).
Although head coach Joe Judge indicated Engram would only work with trainers on the side, the tight end participated during the portion of practice open to the media. And he looked good.

The Giants opted not to place Engram on injured reserve back in August, believing that he would beat the minimum three-week timetable and return as early as this Sunday. That projection still appears to be on track.
Meanwhile, defensive lineman Austin Johnson was not spotted at practice, while linebacker Cam Brown (hamstring) continued his work on the side.
The Giants’ full Wednesday injury report can be found below:
Did not participate: DL Austin Johnson (illness), LB Cam Brown (hamstring), S Nate Ebner (quad)
Limited participant: TE Evan Engram (calf), RB Saquon Barkley (knee), WR Kenny Golladay (hip), DB Logan Ryan (hamstring) and TE Kaden Smith (knee)
Full participant: N/A
