J.J. McCarthy heads to locker room after Zack Baun hit in third quarter

Jameis Winston may be back in the Giants’ chair. Winston entered the game on the Giants’ first possession of the third quarter after McCarthy took a throw from Eagles linebacker Zack Baun. McCarthy went to the sideline and knelt in obvious pain after attempting to throw a ball. McCarthy then headed to the locker room for further evaluation and the Giants finally punted the ball. The team has not made an official announcement regarding the quarterback’s status. McCarthy was 9 of 13 for 101 yards and was sacked five times in the first half. The Eagles still lead 8-6 with more than 10 minutes left in the third quarter.
