Report: Giants' Collins headed to IR, needs surgery for torn labrum
by Karan Gill from on (#44C87)
New York Giants safety Landon Collins will be placed on injured reserve after suffering a shoulder injury against the Chicago Bears in Week 13, a source told ESPN's Josina Anderson.
The 24-year-old suffered a torn labrum and will undergo season-ending surgery, sources told Ralph Vacchiano of SNY.
Collins missed snaps during the Giants' 30-27 overtime victory over Chicago on Sunday, but he was able to finish the game.
The two-time Pro Bowler has recorded 96 combined tackles, one forced fumble, and five tackles for a loss this season.
Safeties Michael Thomas and Sean Chandler should see increased playing time in Collins' absence.
