Giants WR Ford-Wheaton Suffers Season-Ending Achilles Injury

In the 2025 NFL training camps, two undrafted players, tight end Brevyn Spann-Ford of the Dallas Cowboys and wide receiver Bryce Ford-Wheaton of the New York Giants, have suffered significant injuries that could impact their seasons. Spann-Ford, who had been competing for the backup tight end position, is expected to be sidelined for several weeks with an ankle injury, potentially affecting the Cowboys' depth behind starter Jake Ferguson. Meanwhile, Ford-Wheaton has experienced a devastating setback with a torn Achilles during a non-contact drill, marking his second major season-ending injury in three years after a previous torn ACL. Ford-Wheaton, a key special teams contributor for the Giants, expressed determination to recover despite the setback. His injury leaves the Giants' receiving corps and special teams units thinner, opening opportunities for undrafted players like Beaux Collins and Dalen Cambre to compete for roster spots. Both players' injuries underscore the harsh realities of NFL training camps, where promising careers can be quickly derailed by unforeseen physical setbacks.
