RB Rashad Jennings Jennings is listed as probable to make his return on Sunday after missing the past four games with a knee injury. In five games this season, Jennings has 91 rushing attempts for 396 yards and two touchdowns, in addition to 11 catches for 109 yards.  "Anxious is a good word, anxious to get back on the field," Jennings said. "This is my livelihood, this is what I do as a profession. It's my job, it's my business, it's what I love to do. When you're unable to perform on the field, you feel like something's stripped away from you, but it was a time where I think on and off the field I was able to recalibrate some things and come back to the game with a stronger perspective.">> TEAM ANTICIPATES OFFENSIVE BOOST WITH JENNINGS' RETURN

LB Devon Kennard In addition to Mark Herzlich and Spencer Paysinger, the rookie Kennard will be used in the linebacker rotation to compensate for Jacquian Williams, who is out with a concussion. After allowing 350 rushing yards to quarterback Russell Wilson and the Seattle Seahawks last week, the Giants' entire front seven will have to be on their game against a similar threat in Colin Kaepernick and the San Francisco 49ers. "I feel comfortable," Kennard said. "I am excited for the opportunity and it is something I have been working towards all camp and everything and all this season so far. I feel ready for the opportunity."

WR Odell Beckham Jr. A bright spot in the Giants' current four-game losing streak has been the emergence of Beckham, the team's rookie first-round draft pick. Beckham is leading the league in receiving yards over the last two weeks, including 108 against Seattle's vaunted secondary. "That's another one of those things where it's great, but without winning, it's just kind of like, 'OK,'" Beckham said. "That's just one of those things that I just want to keep continuing to improve and do more, do more for the team.">> THE BECKHAM JR. REPORT: EXCLUSIVE GIANTS.COM INTERVIEW

S Stevie Brown After Quintin Demps replaced him as a starter in Week 4, Brown has seen his number of snaps gradually increase back up over the last few weeks and could be a factor in more three-safety looks. "We're trying to get both guys integrated," defensive coordinator Perry Fewell said. "We'll try to use a little bit of the three-safety package a little bit. Nothing out of the ordinary."

DE Robert Ayers Jr. Ayers has registered a sack in back-to-back games, bringing his season total to a team-high four. However, in spite of Ayers' efforts, the defense has dropped to last in the NFL in yards allowed per game. Now Ayers and the Giants will try to crawl out. "We're at the 32nd spot right now," Fewell said. "We have seven games to crawl out of that spot. We'll crawl out."
