Undergoes successful surgery Berrios (foot) underwent successful surgery Friday to repair a Lisfranc injury, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Berrios suffered a foot injury in the Week 5 victory over the Cardinals. He has since been ruled out for the remainder of the 2026 season and is currently occupying a spot on injured reserve. It's unknown if Berrios will be cleared to suit up for the start of the 2027 campaign, but while he is sidelined this season, Charlie Jones is projected to handle most of the return duties.

Giants' Special Teams Now Face a Test Without Braxton Berrios The Giants lead the NFL in special teams EPA, but with Braxton Berrios out for the season, Charlie Jones must keep the return game humming.

Officially goes to IR The Giants placed Berrios (foot) on their injured reserve list Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Berrios was already determined to have sustained a season-ending foot injury during Sunday's contest versus the Cardinals, so the move comes as no surprise. His being out could create more opportunities at wide receiver and as a returner for Charlie Jones, who was signed to the Giants' active roster from their practice squad in late September.

Giants return specialist Braxton Berrios says he is having season-ending surgery

Braxton Berrios says he is having season-ending surgery on the foot injury that knocked him out of the New York Giants' game Sunday against Arizona

OCTOBER 7 • Associated Press

Undergoing season-ending surgery Berrios announced Tuesday that he will undergo foot surgery and be out for the rest of the 2026 season, Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post reports.

Impact Berrios injured his foot during the Giants' Week 4 win over the Cardinals, and the injury is severe enough for him to require season-ending surgery. In Berrios' absence, the Giants will likely turn to Tyrone Tracy, Charlie Jones and Deonte Banks to serve as returners on kickoffs and punts.

Impact Though Adam Schefter of ESPN reported earlier Monday that Berrios was ticketed for IR, the Giants apparently plan to evaluate the 30-year-old over the next few days before deciding whether or not to deactivate him. Regardless, Berrios appears poised to miss time, which would pave the way for Charlie Jones to replace him as the Giants' primary return man beginning with Sunday's game against the Commanders. Berrios has suited up for each of the Giants' first four games, drawing just one target while seeing the majority of his playing time on special teams.

Won't return vs. Arizona Berrios (foot) has been ruled out for the rest of Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Berrios will not return to Sunday's game after his foot injury was evaluated by medical staff, and the Giants should have an update on the veteran wide receiver shortly once he undergoes more tests. Charlie Jones will handle most of the return duties on punts and kickoffs in Berrios' absence.

OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

Injures foot in Week 4 Berrios (foot) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.

Impact Berrios was just signed to the active roster off the practice squad Tuesday and worked as both a wideout and a kick returner Sunday prior to getting hurt. He didn't catch his only target and returned two punts for minus-2 yards. Charlie Jones figures to move up a notch in the WR pecking order and serve as New York's prime kick and punt returner if Berrios can't return.

OCTOBER 4 • ROTOWIRE

Appointed to Giants roster The Giants signed Berrios off their practice squad Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact After failing to win a spot on the Giants' roster coming out of preseason, Berrios re-signed with the organization as a member of the practice squad. The Giants elevated him from the practice squad ahead of each of their first three games, with Berrios going with a target over 22 snaps on offense but holding a critical role on special teams as the team's kickoff and punt returner. With the Giants releasing Odell Beckham on Tuesday, Berrios will now be awarded a permanent spot on the 53-man roster.

Giants release receiver Odell Beckham Jr. after three games and zero catches

Odell Beckham Jr.'s return to the New York Giants lasted just three games with no catches

Reverts to Big Blue's practice squad Berrios reverted to the Giants' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.

Impact Berrios played five offensive snaps and seven special-teams snaps in the contest, returning two punts for 12 yards and two kicks for 57 yards. The wide receiver has been the primary returner for the Giants through the first three games of the 2026 regular season, but is now out of active roster elevations. If the team wants Berrios to play returner in Sunday's matchup with the Cardinals, they will need to sign the 30-year-old to the active roster.

SEPTEMBER 29 • ROTOWIRE

Elevated for Sunday's game The Giants elevated Berrios from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Titans, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact The Giants have elected to expend Berrios' last practice squad elevation after calling upon the wide receiver for three consecutive weeks. The 30-year-old remains the team's primary kick and punt returner, receiving no targets but recording 81 kick-return yards over the past two games. Berrios will need to be signed to the active roster to participate in any more regular-season games for the Giants after Week 3.

SEPTEMBER 26 • ROTOWIRE

Heading back to practice squad Berrios reverted to the Giants' practice squad Tuesday, per the NFL's official transaction log.

Impact Berrios played only five of the Giants' 58 offensive snaps in Monday's loss, but he was more involved on special teams, recording two fair catches on punts and two kick returns for a total of 53 yards. The Giants can elevate him once more this season before they'd have to sign him to their 53-man roster in order to have him suit up.

SEPTEMBER 23 • ROTOWIRE

Elevated for MNF The Giants elevated Berrios from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Monday night's game against the Rams, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Berrios will be up from the practice squad for a second consecutive week and is expected to serve as a returner for the Giants on both punts and kickoffs. He played 18 snaps (12 on offense, six on special teams) during the Giants' Week 1 win over the Cowboys, when he returned one kickoff for 28 yards while calling two fair catches on punts.

Shifts back to practice squad Berrios reverted to the Giants' practice squad Monday, according to the NFL's official transaction log.

Impact The wide receiver saw action on 12 offensive snaps and six special-teams snaps in New York's 28-20 win over Dallas on Sunday night, making two fair catches on punts and returning one kickoff for 28 yards. He was elevated for the game primarily to serve as a return specialist. It remains to be seen if Berrios will stay in that role, though he has played it consistently across an eight-year NFL career.
