UNDATED (AP) — The Lions and Giants close out the NFL’s Week 2 schedule tonight in East Rutherford, New Jersey.

Eli Manning and the Giants will have to wait until pregame warmups to see if wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr.’s sprained left ankle will keep him out for a second straight game.

Lions quarterback Matthew Stafford, the league’s highest-paid player, was in midseason form in Detroit’s 35-23 season-opening win over Arizona with 292 yards passing and four touchdowns while engineering his 27th fourth-quarter or overtime comeback since 2011.
