It might be difficult for Bryce Ford-Wheaton to see any positives in his recent injury setback. The New York Giants veteran went down in a concerning fashion during a training camp session on Sunday.<\/p>\n

Despite not making contact with anybody, Ford-Wheaton went down, and struggled to get back up without assistance. Non-contact injuries rarely result in good news. This situation was no different.<\/p>\n

Ford-Wheaton suffered a torn Achilles, according to reports. He is headed for the injured reserve and is unlikely to play at all during the 2025 NFL<\/a> season.<\/p>\n

On Sunday, Ford-Wheaton took to social media to release a statement on his latest setback. While he’s disappointed, the veteran is maintaining a positive mindset as he enters a new journey in recovery.<\/p>\n

“I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t devastated! I did everything by the book! Didn’t take a single shortcut, left no stone unturned, invested everything into my body and my health this year,” Ford-Wheaton said on X.<\/p>\n

“I’m not sure why me, but I promise I’m not going out on these terms. It’s a long road ahead for sure, but I know this is just part of God’s plan for me, no matter how tough it may seem right now. Thank you all for your prayers, please continue to keep me in them. I WILL be back, that’s a promise!! God gives his toughest battles to his strongest soldiers!”<\/p>\n

I\u2019d be lying if I said I wasn\u2019t devastated! I did everything by the book! Didn\u2019t take a single shortcut, left no stone unturned, invested everything into my body and my health this year. I\u2019m not sure why me but I promise I\u2019m not going out on these terms. It\u2019s a long road ahead\u2026<\/p>\n

The 25-year-old joined the Giants after playing at West Virginia for his NCAA run. Although Ford-Wheaton was a part of the 2023 NFL<\/a> Draft player pool, he ended up going undrafted. He signed with the Giants for his rookie season.<\/p>\n

Although Ford-Wheaton looked forward to potentially cracking the Giants’ final roster during his rookie effort, he ended up on the injured reserve instead. During the 2023 preseason, Ford-Wheaton suffered a torn ACL. He missed his entire rookie season.<\/p>\n

Last season, Ford-Wheaton finally made his debut with the Giants. He garnered just two snaps on the offensive side of the ball. He served New York as a special-teams player, logging 78 percent of his snaps there in 14 games.<\/p>\n

For the second time in three seasons, Ford-Wheaton will miss the entire year. He was slated to make a little over $1 million for the 2025 NFL<\/a> season, according to Spotrac. His three-year deal will expire at the end of the season, and he’ll become a free agent during the 2026 period.<\/p>\n

Right now, Ford-Wheaton will keep focus on his recovery, as he has a long road to get back out on the field.<\/p>\n
