Linebacker Perry Riley Jr. did not practice for a third straight day and is listed as questionable for the Washington Redskins' matchup at the New York Giants on Thursday night.

Riley suffered a calf injury in Sunday's win over the Miami Dolphins and his absence would leave the Redskins with Keenan Robinson, Will Compton and rookie Terrance Plummer as the only healthy inside linebackers.

As expected, wide receiver DeSean Jackson (hamstring) and backup cornerback Justin Rogers (foot) will each miss their second straight game. Backup offensive tackle Tom Compton (calf) is also listed as questionable.

For the Giants, notable absences will be wideout Victor Cruz (calf) and starting cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie (concussion), who have both been ruled out, while starting rookie offensive left tackle Ereck Flowers (ankle) is doubtful.
