EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- New York Giants wide receiver Gunner Olszewski went down Friday during OTAs with a noncontact injury that the team fears is a torn Achilles tendon, sources told ESPN.
Olszewski, 29, is undergoing further tests to confirm the injury.
The veteran receiver went down and immediately grabbed at his right leg late in practice. He was slamming his fist in disgust as he was being carted off.
"That was a noncontact change in direction kind of a deal on the grass there," coach John Harbaugh said. "So that was disappointing."
Olszewski is likely the third Giants player to have torn their Achilles tendon this spring. Defensive lineman Roy Robertson-Harris did it during an indoor practice last week and undrafted rookie Thaddeus Dixon tore his Achilles earlier this offseason.
The Giants are now getting short on wide receivers with Malik Nabers (knee) and Darius Slayton (core muscle) still rehabbing from injuries. They had expressed interest in signing Odell Beckham Jr. earlier this offseason.
Olszewski played in 16 games last season with one start. He had eight catches for 102 yards in that one Week 18 start against the Dallas Cowboys.
