The New York Giants appear to be relatively healthy entering a Week 1 matchup with the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday night, and that includes veteran wide receiver Golden Tate.
Tate suffered a hamstring injury in late August and head coach Joe Judge called the situation “day-to-day,” which led some to worry that the receiver might miss the opening game of the season.
However, as the Giants returned to practice on Wednesday, so to did Tate. And when Thursday rolled around, he was back out on the field.

By all accounts, Tate should be a go come Monday night so long as he doesn’t suffer a setback. And if he is, that will provide second-year quarterback Daniel Jones his very first opportunity to play with his full compliment of skill position players.
And on that note, no other Giants are suffering from any major dings or dents, which explains the relatively light practice report. Only linebacker Markus Golden was sidelined with illness.
Full participation: None
Limited participation: DB Adrian Colbert (illness), LB Tae Crowder (hamstring), WR Golden Tate (hamstring) and Levine Toilolo (hamstring)
Non-participant: LB Markus Golden (illness)
