Rodgers-Cromartie (concussion) is not listed on the injury report for Sunday's game in Buffalo.

Rodgers-Cromartie missed a Week 3 Thursday game against the Redskins, but he might have been able to play if the game had been on Sunday.

With such a short turnaround this week, Rodgers-Cromartie wasn't afforded much time to emerge from the league's concussion protocol and will thus take a seat. In his stead, expect Jayron Hosley to fill in at cornerback.

There's a good chance Rodgers-Cromartie will miss Thursday's game against the Redskins while he's in the concussion protocol.

Anticipating that he'll be asked to play more press coverage and contribute more to stopping the run, Rodgers-Cromartie swapped out his daily McDonalds for a healthier diet that includes more calories. He has a reputation as a cover man who can't really tackle, but he's hoping to change that perception in 2015 while playing under defensive coordinator Steve Spagnuolo. IDP owners would still be wise to look elsewhere, as DRC recorded just 38 tackles (36 solo) in 16 games last season. He's never topped 51 tackles in a season, but he does have 21 interceptions through his first seven years.

After struggling to stay healthy for most of the year, Rodgers-Cromartie played all the Giants defensive snaps Sunday, the Newark Star-Ledger reports.

Rodgers-Cromartie matched his season-best total of five solo tackles last week against the Cowboys, but has seen his snap count reduced over the past two contests, playing 41 and 40 defensive snaps in Week 11 and 12, respectively. The 28-year-old defensive back has also collected just once interception so far in 2014, so there's likely a few higher-percentage IDP options out there.

That he practiced Thursday is a good sign as the Giants will need as many snaps as they can out of Rodgers-Cromartie against Andrew Luck and the Colts.

Rodgers-Cromartie (back) made it through Sunday's game, but he barely showed up on the field, the Newark Star-Ledger reports.

Rodgers-Cromartie left Sunday's loss to the Eagles with back spasms, the Newark Star-Ledger reports. He has been struggling with an IT band injury that is believed to be the root of the problem.
