EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. - Giants tight end Jeremy Shockey missed practice with a sore ankle for a second straight day Thursday, putting his status in question for New York's regular-season finale against Washington on Saturday night.
Shockey did not speak to reporters Thursday, but was seen walking through the locker room with a noticeable limp and appeared to favor his left ankle.
The Pro Bowl tight end was hurt in Sunday's 30-7 loss to New Orleans. He has been listed as questionable for Saturday night's game.
"He's getting better, but he couldn't practice," coach Tom Coughlin said.
Coughlin said a decision on whether to play Shockey might be delayed until 90 minutes before kickoff. The Giants (7-8) will virtually assure themselves of a playoff berth with a win.
Offensive lineman Rich Seubert also missed practice Thursday with a leg injury and is listed as doubtful.
