The New York Giants have been one of the absolute worst teams in recent memory. They can't pin all their problems on their bad luck with injuries, but their bad luck is too big to ignore. The injury bug has bitten the team badly these past few years.

Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post showed New York's unlucky history with injuries with one stat:

The regular-season finale Sunday against Washington will mark the Giants’ 55th straight game without having their top running back, top tight end and top three wide receivers for an entire game. The last time their five biggest weapons went the distance together was a 38-35 shootout win against the Buccaneers on Nov. 18, 2018 — 10 games into Pat Shurmur’s tenure as head coach and one day after quarterback Daniel Jones’ third-to-last collegiate start at Duke.

Since then, the Giants have had their RB1, TE1, WR1, WR2 and WR3 — known in football as “11” personnel — available for a total of two out of a possible 224 quarters, including overtimes.

Saquon Barkley, New York's highly touted running back, missed four games this year with an ankle injury and nearly all of last year with an ACL tear. The wide receiver bunch has also been banged up terribly. Sterling Shepard suffered an Achilles tendon tear in December and Kadarius Toney has dealt with numerous injuries in just his first NFL season.

Daniel Jones' season was ended prematurely due to a neck injury, as well. New York already looked unimpressive with Jones but looked even worse with their backup quarterbacks. While a roster overhaul is needed to get them back on track, so is much-improved levels of health.

The Giants will close out their season against the Washington Football Team.
