The Giants’ nightmare season continues Sunday.

New York Giants defensive end Jason Pierre-Paul left Sunday's game against the Kansas City Chiefs with an apparent knee injury.

Pierre-Paul was coming off the edge when he was blocked, causing his lower-leg to bend back and his ankle to roll. He remained down on the field for some time before leaving for the sideline.

His official status update is ‘questionable,’ but there are reports the All-Pro defensive end is stretching on the sideline and appears to be okay.

The Giants are on the precipice of starting 0-4 for the first time since the 1987 season, and the end of Sunday's game has't been kind to them. In addition to this injury to Pierre-Paul, there are reports defensive end Justin Tuck has also left the field with an injury.

New York is currently down 17 points to the Chiefs with under 10 minutes remaining in the game.
