The #Giants injury report again shows that 3 offensive linemen didn't practice. LT Andrew Thomas, C John Michael Schmitz and G Shane Lemieux almost certainly aren't going to be able to play Sunday vs. #Dolphins.
As for RB Saquon Barkley (ankle), he's feeling better but was limited for the second consecutive day. Not overly optimistic on that one either after hearing Barkley speak, even though he said he was in a "better spot" than he was last week.

As long as Brightwell can play, we're ok. Brightwell can play right? /sarcasm/
Barkley not playing this week will confirm he is on trading block.
Trade is likely at this point.

Unless a deal is already done, why would they hold him back from playing if he is healthy? Wouldn't they want the rest of the league to see that he is well enough to be effective right now if they're trying to move him? And if he's not fully healed yet, why try to move him now, as opposed to two to three weeks from now, given the deadline is the 31st of Oct?

Not if deal is pending.

There's no deal pending. No one is burning up their phone lines for an expensive, injured RB who will be a free agent at year's end.

Do we know whether it's possible for the Giants to put Thomas on IR retroactively?

Yes and the answer is no.
