Fort Myers Naples, FL, August 26, 2026 —
New York Giants wide receiver Calvin Austin III has been sidelined for the entire upcoming season after sustaining a torn ACL in his right knee. The injury occurred during a training camp practice, according to team officials.
The incident happened during a drill and, notably, did not involve any contact with another player. Austin was subsequently carted off the field. The 27-year-old receiver was in the midst of a strong performance during training camp and had been anticipated to take on a significant role within the Giants’ offensive strategy for the approaching season.
The loss of Austin represents a considerable setback for the Giants, particularly given his recent performance and expected contribution. Further updates on roster adjustments and the team’s offensive plans are expected as the season draws closer.
