        Brian Burns Active vs. Titans ... but Risky

        By Matt Schauf

        Giants Edge Brian Burns is active for today's game against the Titans. He still makes for a risky IDP play, though. Burns missed the entire practice week after spraining his left ankle in the Monday night loss to the Rams. Rainy conditions in New Jersey add another risk factor. Burns lands lower than usual in our Week 3 DL rankings. The Giants will also go without CB Deonte Banks and S Tyler Nubin.
