Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.
Where would you have guessed Giants WR Wan'Dale Robinson ranked among NFL WRs in total targets before reading that headline? Robinson's 67 targets through Week 7 trails only Jets WR Garrett Wilson (75). He also ranks fourth at the position in targets per game. He added a team-high 9 targets to his season total in Sunday's loss to the Eagles. Rookie WR Malik Nabers garnered 8 targets in his return from a two-game concussion.
Giants WR Malik Nabers (concussion) is out for Sunday night's game vs. the Bengals. He's yet to practice after sustaining a concussion 15 days ago. We'll see if Nabers can get cleared for Week 7's game vs. the Eagles. His absence this weekend again leaves Wan'Dale Robinson and Darius Slayton as New York's top two WRs. They accounted for 20 of the team's 34 targets last week.
Giants WR Malik Nabers (concussion) remained sidelined for Thursday's practice. With multiple stages of the protocol to pass through still, he's unlikely to be cleared in time for Sunday night's game vs. the Bengals. We'll update Nabers' status again tomorrow but are removing him from the Week 6 Rankings for now. Nabers' absence boosts the target projections for WRs Wan'Dale Robinson and Darius Slayton.
Giants WR Malik Nabers (concussion) is out for this weekend's game vs. the Seahawks, HC Brian Daboll said Friday morning. Nabers has made slower-than-usual progress through the protocol, although he's still a good bet to be cleared in time for Week 6's game vs. the Bengals. Nabers leaves behind a whopping 36% of the Giants' targets. WR Wan'Dale Robinson, who's already averaging 9.5 targets per game on a 26% share, could add a bit more volume on Sunday. Ditto for WRs Darius Slayton and Jalin Hyatt, who figures to pick up most of Nabers' departed snaps. But Robinson is the only Giants WR we'd feel comfortable using in Week 5 fantasy lineups.
Giants WR Malik Nabers (concussion) will not practice on Thursday, HC Brian Daboll said. The rookie is now a long shot to be cleared in time for Sunday's game vs. the Seahawks, a sentiment echoed by ESPN's Jordan Raanan.
Giants WR Wan'Dale Robinson caught 11 of 14 targets for 71 yards in Thursday night's loss to the Cowboys. The targets and catches were both career highs. As usual, Robinson didn't have any opportunities downfield. His longest catch went for just 11 yards. But he was a quality short-range target for QB Daniel Jones, consistently creating separation on his routes and picking up additional yards after the catch.
The Giants added WR Malik Nabers to the practice report as limited Thursday with a knee injury. That indicates he hurt the joint in practice. We'll watch for more details on the issue and the rookie's Week 2 outlook.
Giants HC Brian Daboll has been calling plays on offense so far this offseason, according to ESPN's Jordan Raanan. OC Mike Kafka handled those duties over the past two years. The team hasn't officially announced the change, but it looks like it'll be Daboll at the controls this season.
ESPN's Jordan Ranaan reports that Giants TE Darren Waller is expected to announce next week whether he'll play this season -- and that "people in and around the team expect that he's going to retire." The team has a two-day mandatory minicamp starting on June 11. Waller's expected to deliver his decision ahead of that.
Giants WR Wan'Dale Robinson (quad) is active for today’s game vs. the Rams. He went from limited participation in Wednesday’s practice to full participation on Thursday back to limited on Friday. But we're not expecting the quad to be a significant factor today.
Giants WR Wan'Dale Robinson (quad) is listed as questionable for this weekend's game vs. the Rams. He went from limited participation on Wednesday to full participation on Thursday back to limited on Friday. We'll look for more info on Robinson's status, but the quad adds some risk to his Week 17 fantasy profile.
Giants QB Tyrod Taylor will start this weekend's game vs. the Rams, HC Brian Daboll said. Taylor played reasonably well in relief of QB Tommy DeVito in Philadelphia on Monday, throwing for 133 yards, one TD, and one INT in the second half. He completed 64% of his passes at 7.4 yards per attempt with two TDs and 0 INTs in starts against the Bills and Commanders earlier this season. Taylor is just a low-end QB2 for Week 17, but he should bring more stability to the offense than DeVito.
Giants QB Daniel Jones (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday's game vs. the Jets. He remained limited in practice all week but hasn't been cleared for contact. QB Tyrod Taylor gets the start again this weekend. He's played reasonably well the past two weeks, completing 65% of his passes at 7.4 yards per attempt with two TDs and 0 INTs. Taylor isn't a recommended fantasy play against a tough Jets defense, but he's not a significant downgrade for guys like RB Saquon Barkley and TE Darren Waller.
Giants WR Darius Slayton displayed a strong rapport with QB Tyrod Taylor vs. the Bills, racking up a team-leading 69 receiving yards with 4 catches on 6 targets. Fellow wideout Wan’Dale Robinson also turned in a strong performance with 8 catches on as many targets for 62 receiving yards in the contest. Since returning from injury in Week 3, Robinson ranks second on the Giants in targets (20) and leads the team with 18 receptions. These opportunities hadn’t manifested many fantasy points until Sunday, but Robinson is a name to consider adding as a flex option in deeper 14 or 16-team league formats moving forward. Next week, the Giants will face off against the Commanders in an NFC East divisional bout.
Giants QB Daniel Jones (neck) has been ruled out for Sunday night's game vs. the Bills. He didn't practice all week, so it's certainly possible that he misses more time. QB Tyrod Taylor will start on Sunday night for the first time since December 2021. Taylor is a serviceable backup but has little chance behind New York's leaky offensive line. We're considering Taylor just a slight downgrade from Jones for New York's pass-catchers.
Giants WR Wan’Dale Robinson snagged 5 of 6 targets for 18 yards in Week 5. Robinson remained exclusively a short-range target – necessary given the amount of pressure put on Daniel Jones. The Giants went without an offensive score in this one and now own just 5 offensive TDs all season. We’ll see if Daniel Jones – who left late with a neck injury – can get cleared ahead of Week 6.
Giants WR Wan'Dale Robinson left in the fourth quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Dolphins to be checked for a concussion.
Update: Robinson cleared concussion protocol and has returned to the game.
Giants WR Wan'Dale Robinson (knee) is active for tonight's game vs. the 49ers. Expect him to have a small role in his first game since last November’s torn ACL. We'll see how Robinson's usage evolves, but he's only an option in one-game DFS tournaments tonight.
Giants WR Wan'Dale Robinson (knee) is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the 49ers. That's an upgrade from his "doubtful" status the first two weeks. ESPN's Jordan Raanan expects Robinson to play vs. San Francisco, which would be his first game since last November’s torn ACL. Robinson certainly isn't a Week 3 fantasy option, but we'll monitor his role.
Giants WR Wan’Dale Robinson (knee) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Cardinals. Darius Slayton, Isaiah Hodgins, and Parris Campbell will again operate as New York’s top three WRs.
