Giants WR/Returner Gunner Olszewski Out 2-4 Weeks With Groin Injury

3 months ago

New York Giants wide receiver and return specialist Gunner Olszewski (groin) is expected to miss 2-4 weeks due to a groin injury. Olszewski, who was set to be the Giants' primary returner, may face a significant setback with his extended absence. Although he did not record a reception in 10 games last season, he did return a punt for a touchdown. Olszewski has been a reliable NFL returner for five seasons and was named a first-team All-Pro in 2020. His injury could open the door for receiver Isaiah McKenzie, a natural candidate to fill in as he also brings extensive punt and kick-return experience. This injury may boost McKenzie's chances of securing a roster spot with the Giants.
