2026 Outlook
Critical defensive lineman facing major injury setback. Torn Achilles tendon in May 2026 is typically a 9-12+ month recovery, but Giants appear optimistic he could return late in the 2026 season if rehabilitation goes well. Unlike other similarly injured players (Olszewski, Dixon), Giants haven't placed Robertson-Harris on injured reserve, suggesting they believe recovery is possible this season.

Defensive lineman in Giants' front four rotation.
Injury Status
Tore Achilles tendon approximately 3 weeks before June 12 minicamp (early June 2026). Unlike WR Gunner Olszewski and RB Thaddeus Dixon, who also tore Achilles tendons and were placed on injured reserve, the Giants have kept Robertson-Harris on the active roster, indicating belief he could return this season. Head coach John Harbaugh stated: "There's a chance Roy could get back, actually. With Roy's situation, time frame-wise, there's a chance he could get back late in the season. We're going to try to hold off on that if we can." (per 5 New York Giants injuries that could define their summer)
