| 0:00.0 | Hey, everybody, welcome into the Purple Insider Post Game Show presented by Fanduil. |
| 0:11.3 | Matthew Collar here, Dane Mizatani in East Rutherford, New Jersey, and the New York Giants slash Jets press box there following a football game that definitely happened between two teams. |
| 0:25.2 | And what we will take out of it is one really good throw by Max Brosmer, an injury for |
| 0:30.9 | J.J. McCarthy, and probably not a whole lot else. But certainly the injury that happened to J.J. McCarthy to his hand is |
| 0:40.3 | where we shall begin. Dane, how serious does it feel like J.J. McCarthy's injury is? |
| 0:49.3 | Yeah, I mean, it's hard to say because right after the game, talking to Kevin O'Connell, |
| 0:55.9 | he really didn't give that much updates. I guess that's not totally out of the norm for Kevin O'Connell. He don't |

| 1:33.3 | But he also didn't say, yeah, we expect to have him on Christmas Day against the Lions. |
| 1:37.9 | And of course, quick turnaround adds to the unknowns, less than 96 hours to kick off now. |
| 1:45.4 | How quickly is he going to be able to turn over? |
| 1:48.2 | That's the question. |
| 1:49.6 | So I guess it's not a catastrophic injury in that it was announced after the game to be broken because it's not. |
| 1:58.5 | Like I said, x-rays are negative. |
| 2:00.4 | But at the same time, he didn't finish the game. |
| 2:03.1 | I saw him in the locker room. |
