Although the New York Giants have once again been among the NFL's most injured teams in 2015, they are finally starting to turn a corner in the health department. After the one week layoff for the bye, the Giants returned four key contributors to practice on Monday, per NJ Advanced Media.

Cornerback Prince Amukamara (pectoral), tight end Larry Donnell (neck), and linebackers J.T. Thomas (ankle) and Uani 'Unga (neck) were all on the field and practiced as full participants Monday.

Amukamara should provide the biggest boost -- before going down with a pectoral injury, he had been enjoying one of his strongest seasons in coverage. Donnell will give Manning another weapon at tight end, and his return will likely kick undrafted free agent tight end Will Tye into a much smaller role. Thomas will likely resume his role as a starting outside linebacker and Unga will be a sub-package inside linebacker.
