Giants rookie OL Marcus McKethan (ACL) placed on IR

New York Giants rookie offensive lineman Marcus McKethan was placed on injured reserve Saturday with a torn ACL in his right knee.

McKethan, 23, sustained the injury during the Blue-White scrimmage on Friday and was carted off the field at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J.

The 6-foot-7, 335-pound McKethan was selected by the Giants in the fifth round of the 2022 NFL Draft out of North Carolina. He was an All-ACC honorable mention in each of his final two seasons with the Tar Heels.

The Giants signed offensive tackle Will Holden on Friday.

NFL New York Giants tackle Will Holden

Giants sign veteran OT Will Holden

The New York Giants added veteran offensive tackle Will Holden to the roster on Friday.

The 6-foot-7, 312-pound lineman replaces tackle Matt Gono, who was placed on the left squad/exempt list on Wednesday.

Holden, 28, has played in 27 games (nine starts) with the Arizona Cardinals (2017-18), Indianapolis Colts (2020), Baltimore Ravens (2020) and Detroit Lions (2021).

Arizona drafted him in the fifth round in 2017 and he played in a career-high 14 games last season with Detroit.

The Giants waived defensive tackle Niko Lalos to make room for Holden on the 90-man roster.

Colts rule out S Willis, CB Ya-Sin; put OT Castonzo on IR

Indianapolis Colts safety Khari Willis, cornerback Rock Ya-Sin and offensive tackle Will Holden have been ruled out for this weekend’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars, the team announced Friday.

The Colts also placed offensive tackle Anthony Castonzo on injured reserve and signed center Joey Hunt to the 53-man roster from the practice squad.

Indianapolis (10-5) needs a victory against the Jaguars (1-14) on Sunday plus a loss from either the Cleveland Browns (10-5), Baltimore Ravens (10-5), Miami Dolphins (10-5) or Tennessee Titans (10-5) to make the AFC playoffs.

Willis, 24, sustained a concussion during the Colts’ 28-24 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers on Sunday. The second-year safety has 85 tackles, two interceptions, two sacks and one forced fumble in 14 games this season.

Ya-Sin, 24, is also dealing with the effects of a concussion. He has recorded 45 tackles, one interception and one forced fumble in 13 games this season.

Holden, 27, sustained an ankle injury versus the Steelers. He was starting in place of Castonzo, who had been hobbled by an ankle injury.

A first-round draft pick by the Colts in 2011, Castonzo has been an anchor of the offensive line, playing in 144 games (all starts) over 10 seasons.

The Jaguars’ lone win in 2020 came at the expense of Indianapolis. Jacksonville posted a 27-20 victory on Sept. 13.
