Sterling Shepard Has Tough Matchup In Baltimore

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard has been ineffective lately with the Giants' offense struggling. Shepard has just eight catches in the last three games combined with Big Blue relying on Colt McCoy at quarterback. Daniel Jones (hamstring) is expected back this week but was clearly hobbled last time he tried to play through […]

Evan Engram A Risky Option In Week 16

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram hasn't been productive in recent weeks as the team's offense has sputtered with quarterback Daniel Jones (ankle, hamstring) out. Jones should be back this week against the Ravens, but he was clearly hobbled last time he tried to play through injury, so it'll be hard to trust any New […]

Wayne Gallman A Risky Option In Week 16

New York Giants running back Wayne Gallman has been a solid starter for fantasy purposes, but he had a disappointing game last week and will face a challenge against the Ravens stout defense in Week 16. Last week, Gallman had just nine carries for 29 yards, his fewest carries in a game since Oct. 11. […]

Golden Tate Ruled Out

New York Giants wide receiver Golden Tate (calf) has been ruled out for Week 16 against the Ravens. Tate hasn't really been on the fantasy radar this year in redraft leagues, as he's been buried on the depth chart behind Sterling Shepard, Darius Slayton and tight end Evan Engram in 2020. The 32-year-old has just […]

Devonta Freeman Not Expected To Play Sunday

New York Giants running back Devonta Freeman (ankle) was activated off Injured Reserve last week with the intention of him getting back on the field for the stretch run of 2020, but it appears unlikely that he takes the field Sunday against the Ravens. Freeman has not played since Week 7, which has allowed Wayne […]

New York Tabs Daniel Jones As Starter For Week 16

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones (ankle, hamstring) has been given the green light to play in Sunday's contest against the Ravens. Jones re-enters the starting lineup after seeing Colt McCoy hold down starter's duties in two of the previous three games. It sounds as if Jones is far from 100 percent, but his practice […]

Evan Engram, Golden Tate Limited Wednesday

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram (calf), wide receiver Golden Tate (calf), defensive back Darnay Holmes (knee) and offensive lineman Matt Peart (ankle) were limited in practice on Wednesday.

Giants Waiting To Make Decision On Daniel Jones

The Cut List (Week 16) - Time to Let Go?

Today, I'm writing to you as someone who has officially been eliminated from championship contention in both of his home leagues. In one of those leagues, I admittedly never stood a chance. My first five draft picks were Clyde Edwards-Helaire, Kenyan Drake, Le'Veon Bell, Zach Ertz, and Dak Prescott. My goodness, that was brutal just […]

Giants Defense Getting James Bradberry Back

The New York Giants activated cornerback James Bradberry from the Reserve/COVID-19 list on Monday. Bradberry was placed on the list for Week 15 and was forced to sit out of the Sunday night loss to the Browns. They'll get him back for a big Week 16 contest against the Ravens, which will make things more […]

Graham Gano Makes Two Field-Goals In Sunday Night Loss

New York Giants kicker Graham Gano made both of his field-goal tries in a loss to the Browns on Sunday Night Football. Gano did not attempt an extra-point. Gano made kicks from 37, and 39 yards away as he hasn't missed a kick this season from inside 50-yards. Despite the quality kicking, Gano remains a […]

Giants Defense Quiet In Sunday Night Loss To Browns

The New York Giants Defense had a silent night in a Week 15 loss to Cleveland. The Giants allowed 20 points, didn't force a turnover and only mustered one sack against Baker Mayfield and company. The Giants defense hasn't been productive for fantasy most of the season and isn't likely to help win many fantasy […]

Evan Engram Has 46 Yards On Sunday Night Football

New York Giants tight end Evan Engram made four catches for 46 yards in a loss to the Browns on Sunday. Given what the New York offense looked like with Colt McCoy starting, Engram was lucky to produce even that modest stat line. Everyone in the Giants passing attack would benefit from Daniel Jones (hamstring) […]

Sterling Shepard Racks Up 51 Yards Versus Browns

New York Giants wide receiver Sterling Shepard caught four passes for 51 yards in a loss to the Browns on Sunday. Fantasy managers should hope Daniel Jones (hamstring) is back next week because Shepard doesn't seem to work with Colt McCoy.

Darius Slayton Leads Giants In Receiving Sunday

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton caught four passes for a team-high 74 yards in a loss to the Browns on Sunday night. Slayton's nine targets led the team as the second-year wideout has 17 targets in the last two games with Colt McCoy under center. It was Slayton's most yards in a game […]

Colt McCoy Uninspiring On Sunday Night Football

New York Giants quarterback Colt McCoy was 19-for-31 passing for 221 yards with no touchdowns and no interceptions in a loss to the Browns on Sunday. McCoy added three rushing yards on two carries. The Giants' offense was in reverse all night as McCoy could not get anything going versus a stout Browns Defense. Starter […]

Alfred Morris Racks Up 39 Yards Versus Browns

New York Giants running back Alfred Morris rushed for 39 yards on seven carries in a loss to the Browns on Sunday. Morris averaged an impressive 5.6 yards-per-carry, but that's where positives end for the New York offense. Devonta Freeman (ankle) returned to practice last week and there aren't enough carries in the Giants' backfield […]

Wayne Gallman Rushes For 29 Yards On Sunday Night

New York Giants running back Wayne Gallman rushed nine times for 29 yards in a loss to the Browns on Sunday Night Football. Gallman's nine carries led the team, but backup Alfred Morris out-rushed Gallman by ten yards on two fewer carries. This is the first time since Devonta Freeman (ankle) was injured that Gallman […]

Colt McCoy Will Start Sunday; Daniel Jones Ruled Inactive

New York Giants quarterback Colt McCoy will officially be the starting quarterback for Sunday's game versus Cleveland after the organization decided to rule Daniel Jones (ankle, hamstring) inactive for the contest.
