Giants coach Joe Judge said receiver C.J. Board has movement in his limbs after suffering a concussion and neck injury in the team’s 20-19 win over Washington.

Bush, who had not missed a defensive snap all season, injured his left knee in the second quarter when he took an awkward step while attempting to break up a pass.

Board was carted off the field and taken to a hospital after he was hit by safety Deshazor Evertt while trying to catch a low pass on a crossing pattern in the third quarter of New York’s 20-19 win.
