The question, of course, now will be how much the Giants actually use Jennings, especially considering they have Andre Williams, too.

8:30 a.m.: To say there are some injury questions across the NFL in Week 14 would be a major understatement.
There are plenty of teams still in the playoff hunt, and a lot of those teams face the prospect of playing Sunday without some key players. At the very least, they could enter potential must-win matchups without those players at 100 percent.
Perhaps the biggest name on the long list of questionable players is Baltimore Ravens running back Justin Forsett. The breakout back is listed as questionable with a knee injury. The good news for the Ravens (and fantasy football players who have Forsett) is that he did practice with the team Friday.
The New York Giants don’t have a whole lot to play for, but plenty of fantasy football owners will be checking the injury reports early and often Sunday to see the status of running back Rashad Jennings. He reportedly traveled with the team to Nashville for the Giants’ game with the Tennessee Titans, which is usually a good sign. He’s still up in the air with an ankle injury, though.
As we mentioned, there are plenty of players listed as questionable Sunday, and that’s just looking at the early games. Here’s a list of some of the notable players ones for the 1 p.m. ET games.
Baltimore RB Justin Forsett (knee)
Giants RB Rashad Jennings (ankle)
Indianapolis WR Josh Cribbs (knee)
Cleveland TE Jordan Cameron (concussion)
Miami TE Charles Clay (hamstring)
Tampa Bay RB Bobby Rainey (ankle)
Tampa Bay TE Austin Sefarian-Jenkins (back)
Tennessee WR Kendall Wright (hand)
Tennessee QB Zach Mettenberger (shoulder)
Washington WR DeSean Jackson (shin)
We’ll have the latest on those players and more throughout the day, so be sure to check back early and often.
