Giants cornerback Aaron Ross will miss Sunday's game against the Minnesota Vikings due to a concussion.
And Big Blue has listed at least four other starters as 50-50 at best for what is a meaningless regular-season finale for the Super Bowl champions.
Tight end Kevin Boss (concussion-ankle) is listed as doubtful on the injury report and halfback Brandon Jacobs (knee), offensive tackle Kareem McKenzie (back), and defensive tackle Barry Cofield (knee) are questionable.
Ross, Boss, Jacobs and Cofield didn't practice today, while Cofield was limited in his participation.
Linebacker Gerris Wilkinson, who has been sidelined for several weeks with a knee injury, also is out.
The Giants have clinched the NFC's top seed for the playoffs, so they have nothing to gain against the Vikings, who are fighting for the NFC North title.
