Wan’Dale Robinson Provides Sneaky WR3 Potential In Week 18

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson is putting together better numbers with quarterback Tyrod Taylor under center.

The 23-year-old still doesn't provide much of a threat downfield, but the Giants are putting the football […]

Darren Waller Remains A Low-End TE1 Option Against Philadelphia

New York Giants tight end Darren Waller is a much safer option with a veteran quarterback under center. After being shut out for nearly the entire game against Philadelphia two weeks ago, Waller has caught seven passes for 83 yards in just over 60 minutes of game action.

Darius Slayton A Boom/Bust Candidate Again In Week 18

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton has posted back-to-back performances of at least 90 yards and one touchdown. The veteran looks to take advantage of another favorable matchup.

Daniel Bellinger Not Worth Considering In Week 17

New York Giants tight end Daniel Bellinger tallied four catches for 43 yards against the Philadelphia Eagles last week, but it's highly unlikely he'll replicate those numbers against the Los Angeles Rams. Both of those were season-high marks and the second-year professional sits behind Darren Waller on the tight end depth chart. The Giants' offense […]

Jalin Hyatt Sputtering Toward The End Of The Season

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt hasn't logged a catch in two weeks and didn't even earn a target in the team's loss to the Eagles in Week 16.

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton, fresh off one of his best games of the 2023 campaign, draws the Los Angeles Rams at home in Week 17.

Darren Waller Poised For A Big Game In Week 17?

New York Giants tight end Darren Waller (knee) popped up on the team's injury report this week, but he has no official designation for Sunday, logging full practices on Thursday and Friday.

Tyrod Taylor A Low-End QB2 In Return To Starting Role

New York Giants quarterback Tyrod Taylor returns to the starting lineup in Week 17, replacing ineffective rookie Tommy Devito.
