New York Giants cornerback Prince Amukamara was originally expected to miss just 2-4 weeks with a pectoral injury he suffered in Week 5, but he has missed five games since. According to Amukamara, when the Giants come off their bye in Week 12, he will be ready to play.

Amukamara's return will be welcomed by a Giants defense that has been leaky against the pass at times in 2015. Before going down with injury, Amukamara had done an excellent job in coverage -- per Pro Football Focus, he had allowed just one touchdown and a 57.1 completion percentage against.
