Wilson ran for 16 yards on six carries with a touchdown, but New York lost, 36-21, to fall to 0-5 on the season.
The lack of a rushing attack has been just one of the many reasons that the Giants have collapsed this year. Wilson has 44 carries for 146 yards and they entered Week 5 with the 28th-ranked rushing offense in terms of yardage. Brandon Jacobs had 11 carries for 37 yards in relief with a fumble.
Mike Garafolo also added that the injury was not thought to be serious.
Word on David Wilson is it's not believed to be a serious injury. Being held out for precautionary reasons. More tests today/Mon, I'm sure.
