    Giants' Josh Ezeudu carted off, 3 others injured during Friday's practice

    It was a scorcher on Friday in East Rutherford with the heat index soaring above 100, but that didn’t stop the New York Giants, who adorned full pads for the third time this summer.

    That combination yielded unfortunate results as offensive lineman Joshua Ezeudu was carted off the field toward the end of practice.

    Ezeudu was seen limping before the cart came out to pick him up but given the heat and dew point, it’s possible he was just cramping up.

    The heat also got to center Austin Schlottmann, who briefly left the field while vomiting, as well as wide receiver Bryce Ford-Wheaton. It was that kind of day.

    Meanwhile, three other Giants also went down with injuries, including tight end Jack Stoll, who appeared to suffer a knee injury. He was joined on the sideline by defensive tackle D.J. Davidson, both of whom were attended to by trainers and Ronnie Barnes.

    Finally, wide receiver Isaiah McKenzie also suffered an injury to his lower back or ribs after getting hit by Dyontae Johnson near the sideline.

    McKenzie eventually got up and walked off the field but he was clearly in a significant amount of pain.

    The Giants did not offer immediate updates on any of the players.
