New York Giants safety Jason Pinnock’s status for Sunday’s game against the Carolina Panthers in Munich is a concern, according to head coach Brian Daboll.

Pinnock showed up on the team’s injury report on Thursday with an abdominal strain. He was listed as limited in Thursday’s practice, and his status for Sunday will all come down to what he is able to do in practice on Friday and in the team’s walk-through Saturday.

If Pinnock is inactive, Dane Belton will get the start.

In other injury news, left tackle Chris Hubbard, who missed Thursday’s practice due to being sick, is expected to be ready for Sunday’s game. 

Daboll also told reporters that kicker Graham Gano, on IR since Week 2, but whose 21-day window was opened this week, continues to trend toward being activated for Sunday, and that punter Jamie Gillan, sidelined the last four weeks with a left hamstring issue, is also trending toward a return.

Receiver Darius Slayton (concussion) was ruled out by the team on Thursday and did not make the trip to Munich.
