Darius Slayton Fails To Deliver Production On Five Targets
New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton tied for the team lead in targets (five) on Sunday but only logged three catches for 15 yards.

Isaiah Hodgins Records One Catch, Loses Fumble In Week 1
New York Giants wide receiver Isaiah Hodgins caught just one ball for 24 yards in the team's 40-0 loss to the Dallas Cowboys.

Jalin Hyatt Blanked In NFL Debut
New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt saw just one target, which he failed to reel in, in the team's 40-0 Week 1 loss to the Dallas Cowboys.

Darren Waller Struggles In Debut With Giants
New York Giants tight end Darren Waller was the only receiving option that did much of anything in the team's 40-0 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, but his stat line was still nothing to write home about.

Graham Gano Puts Up Goose Egg In Week 1
New York Giants kicker Graham Gano had one kick blocked and missed on a second attempt in the team's 40-0 Week 1 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. The 36-year-old may not be to blame for either, as the snap on his miss wasn't perfect. He also did not get a chance to attempt an extra […]

Should I Start Darnell Mooney or Treylon Burks? Fantasy Football Outlook
If you're asking the question "Should I Start Darnell Mooney or Treylon Burks?" you're either in a deep league or you drafted Cooper Kupp and/or Christian Watson.

Darren Waller Looking For A Strong Start To The Season
Fantasy managers have been victimized by tight end Darren Waller in the last two seasons. Since posting back-to-back 1,100-yard seasons in 2019 and 2020 as a member of the Raiders, the tight end has only played in 20 out of 34 possible games. With a change of scenery, fantasy managers hope Waller stays healthy and […]

Sterling Shepard Lost In The Wide Receiver Crowd To Begin Season
New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard has ended each of the last two seasons on injured reserve.

Jalin Hyatt Hopes To Get Past Cowboys Defense On Sunday Night
New York Giants rookie wide receiver Jalin Hyatt isn't projected to see many targets in his NFL debut on Sunday night against the Dallas Cowboys.

Darius Slayton A Likely Starter, Unlikely To Be On Fantasy Radars
New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton is atop the depth chart at one of the receiver positions for New York but there are only so many pass attempts to go around. In sixteen games in 2022, Slayton grabbed 46 passes for 724 yards and just two touchdowns. Eleven of his 16 games were starts. […]

Saquon Barkley Locked In As An RB1 Against Dallas
New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley is still the engine of the offense, despite the offseason addition of tight end Darren Waller.

Daniel Jones A Potential Bust Candidate Against Dallas
New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones will begin the 2023 season facing off against a familiar foe.
