Deonte Banks Officially Inactive for MNF

New York Giants cornerback Deonte Banks is officially inactive for Monday Night Football against the Los Angeles Rams with a calf injury, per the club's inactive list reported by Sports Illustrated's Patricia Traina and The Big Lead. Banks was limited Thursday, then missed Friday and Saturday. The questionable stamp from earlier Monday is dead. Rookie Colton Hood gets the nod opposite Greg Newsome II.

Paulson Adebo is already on injured reserve with a knee injury, so the secondary stays thin. Dennard Wilson can also lean on Ar'Darius Washington and newly signed Nikko Reed. Soft fantasy note only: bank the inactive stamp. Do not invent a coverage snap share for Hood from one elevation.
