New York Giants starting right tackle Marshall Newhouse left Sunday’s win over the New Orleans Saints with what the team called a calf injury. He left the locker room in a boot and was limping badly.

The Giants also have some concern about running back Rashad Jennings after he dinged his hand in the second half against the Saints. Jennings should be on the field this week in some capacity.

At minimum, Newhouse appears likely to miss practice time this week. He could possibly be out significantly longer.

Newhouse played well in the opener against the Cowboys but struggled against the Saints even before he limped off. He was charged with two sacks, and he had trouble handling the power of defensive end Cam Jordan.

Second-year lineman Bobby Hart and veteran Will Beatty are in the running to take Newhouse’s starting spot.

“We’re going to evaluate [Newhouse] as the week goes on, see how he does, see how he recovers,” coach Ben McAdoo said. “We don’t know how significant it is or how long he’ll be out at this point, or whether he’ll be able to play or not this week.”

The Giants host the Washington Redskins on Sunday. Their starting right tackle will have his hands full with Redskins outside linebacker Ryan Kerrigan, who already has 1.5 sacks and a forced fumble in two games this season.

Beatty was signed as insurance at offensive tackle several weeks back. He was the Giants’ starting left tackle prior to tearing his pectoral muscle last spring.

He’s been slowly working his way back into playing shape after missing all of last year and the entire preseason and training camp.

“I see a guy that is getting his legs underneath him, his football legs underneath him," McAdoo said. “He’s working well with his pads, and the Thursday practices have been great for him.”

Jennings left the locker room Sunday afternoon with his hand heavily wrapped. He’ll likely be limited when the Giants return to practice on Wednesday.

There does seem to be optimism he’ll be ready for this week against the rival Redskins.

“We’ll see how it goes this week. We’ll see how practice goes,” McAdoo said. “We’ll know more when we see him out there on Wednesday.”

Safety Mykkele Thompson will be out a "few weeks." He injured his knee early on a special teams play in his first career NFL game.

Thompson missed all of last season after tearing his Achilles tendon.
