The initial diagnosis for New York Giants rookie right tackle Evan Neal is an MCL injury that could sideline him for multiple games, NFL Network reported.

The 2022 first-round pick got rolled up on during the first half of Sunday’s game against the Jacksonville Jaguars and limped to the sideline medical tent.

Neal was taken to the locker room on a cart and ruled out for the remainder of the game in Jacksonville.

Neal, 22, will get an MRI to determine the extent of the knee injury.

Drafted seventh overall out of Alabama, the 6-foot-7, 350-pounder has started every game this season.
