New York Giants tight end Evan Engram missed Thursday's practice session.

Engram appears to be in danger of missing Week 1's contest against the Denver Broncos. The Giants play again on Thursday night, so the coaching staff will likely look to exercise caution with their starting tight end. Kyle Rudolph will log most of the snaps in place of Engram and make for an intriguing low-cost DFS flier. Season-long managers will want to look for a streaming option.

Giants TE Evan Engram missed another day of practice Wednesday because of a calf injury, according to Zack Rosenblatt of NJ Advance Media.

Evan Engram and injuries are BFF's. To quote the Talking Heads, "Same as it ever was." Free agent addition Kyle Rudolph would get a rankings boost if Engram is out Week 1.

While the Giants decided against placing Engram on IR to start the season, there are still concerns of whether or not he will be ready for the season opener against the Denver Broncos. He has practicing on side field following injury (calf) in preseason finale.

Kyle Rudolph would be in line for a majority of the snaps at tight end if Engram were to miss or be on a snap count to start the season.

Still uncertainty with Evan Engram (calf) for Week 1, per Joe Judge.

The tweet went on to say there is some “gray area” on Engram and his calf. The team plans to see how Engram does this week. Rudolph is just coming off the PUP list after having foot surgery so there is also some uncertainty there. Smith is next up on the depth chart.

Engram sat on the bench after limping off the field and was attended to by team trainers while holding his head in his hands, the story said. Newcomer Kyle Rudolph was supposed to add some firepower to the league’s 31st ranked scoring offense this season. Rudolph, who had off-season foot surgery, was just activated off the PUP list last week after passing his physical but was not active for the preseason finale.

Giants TE Evan Engram is questionable for Sunday's game against the Cleveland Browns, according Dan Salomone of the New York Giants.

The Giants need Engram healthy to have a chance this week. Engram is a back-end TE1 this week.
