The New York Giants will be without linebacker Tremaine Edmunds for the rest of the season after he suffered a right shoulder injury. His absence creates a significant challenge for a team that has said it has three starting-caliber inside linebackers. With Edmunds sidelined, the Giants will have to rely on their remaining options at the position. The injury puts that claim to the test, as the team adjusts without one of its linebackers. The Giants have not lost Edmunds because of a performance issue; his season is over because of the shoulder injury. His departure leaves the team needing to maintain its inside-linebacker depth through the remainder of the season. For New York, the immediate task is to cover the role Edmunds held and keep its defense functioning without him.
