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.
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 RB Devin Singletary (groin) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. HC Brian Daboll said afterward that Singletary is "trending in the right direction." We're expecting him back for Sunday night's game vs. the Bengals, although it's possible that Singletary cedes more work to RB Tyrone Tracy.
Giants WR Malik Nabers (concussion) remained sidelined for Wednesday's practice. It's surprising and concerning that he's still out 13 days after his concussion. HC Brian Daboll said that Nabers is "doing better" and "day-to-day." But his availability for Sunday night's game vs. the Bengals is in jeopardy. Nabers likely needs to practice tomorrow to have a chance to be cleared for that one.
Giants Edge Kayvon Thibodeaux had surgery Wednesday to repair wrist fracture. HC Brian Daboll says the scaphoid bone injury leaves Thibodeaux "week-to-week," according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport.
Giants TE Theo Johnson more than doubled his season catch total in Sunday's win at Seattle. He nabbed 5 receptions for 48 yards on 5 targets, ranking third on the team in targets and catches.
Giants rookie RB Tyrone Tracy took advantage of his opportunity Sunday against the Seahawks. With starter Devin Singletary out, Tracy dominated backfield playing time. He handled 82% of the team's RB carries and ran five more pass routes than No. 2 RB Eric Gray. Tracy racked up 129 yards on 18 carries. That included runs of 27, 25, and 13 yards. He added 1 reception for a yard among 2 targets.
Giants WR Darius Slayton racked up 122 yards and a TD on 8 receptions in Sunday's win over the Seahawks. He drew 11 targets -- 32.4% of QB Daniel Jones' total attempts -- to lead the team, with rookie WR Malik Nabers (concussion) out.
Giants RB Devin Singletary (groin) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Seahawks. That leaves New York’s backfield to Tyrone Tracy, Eric Gray, and Dante Miller. Tracy is the best bet for touches, particularly in the passing game. But consider him just a RB3 or Flex play with the Giants’ implied total sitting at 17.75 points.
Giants RB Devin Singletary (groin) is listed as doubtful for this weekend’s game vs. the Seahawks. He returned to practice on Friday but evidently isn’t likely to be ready by Sunday. Singletary’s absence will leave the backfield to Tyrone Tracy and Eric Gray. Both guys figure to be involved, but Tracy has been playing ahead of Gray all season and is the better fantasy bet. Don’t overrate him, though. The Giants offense figures to struggle on the road without WR Malik Nabers against a tough defense. Their implied total is sitting at just 17.75 points – second lowest of the week.
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 Malik Nabers (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. It's a bit of a surprise considering he's six days removed from his concussion. The rookie has a lot of work to do to clear protocol in time for Sunday's game vs. the Seahawks. Consider Nabers no better than 50/50 for that one.
Giants HC Brian Daboll said Wednesday that RB Devin Singletary is missing practice because of a groin injury. Dan Duggan of The Athletic added that the RB seems "headed for questionable territory based on Daboll's comments today." The Giants visit the Seahawks this Sunday.
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.
Giants QB Daniel Jones completed 29 of 40 passes (73%) for 281 yards (7.0 YPA) in Thursday night's loss to the Cowboys. He was decisive and accurate in the short passing game, peppering WRs Malik Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson with 29 combined targets. Jones couldn't connect on much downfield, though, notably missing two deep throws to WR Darius Slayton and one to Nabers. Two of those could have gone for TDs with well-placed balls. Jones also struggled in the red zone, with the Giants ultimately settling for five FGs. Jones carried four times for just three yards.
Giants WR Malik Nabers suffered a concussion in the fourth quarter of Thursday night's game vs. the Cowboys. It's his first documented concussion. Nabers will have 10 days to get cleared for Week 5's game against the Seahawks. We'll keep you updated on his progress. The rookie was again super busy before leaving, racking up 12 catches on 15 targets for 115 yards.
Giants WR Darius Slayton (thumb) is active for tonight's game vs. the Cowboys. Slayton has played 80% of New York's offensive snaps but drawn just 10 targets on a 9.5% share through three games. He's only in play in one-game DFS contests.
Giants WR Darius Slayton (thumb) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Thursday night's game vs. the Cowboys. We're tentatively expecting Slayton to play. If he doesn't, Jalin Hyatt would step in as New York's No. 3 WR. This situation should only be impacting your DFS showdown lineups.
Despite the difficult match-up, QB Daniel Jones had a great game completing 24 of his 34 passes for 236 yards and 2 TDs. He also ran eight times for 20 yards.
Giants RB Devin Singletary couldn’t get the run going against the stout Browns defense, until he hit a 43 yard run late in the game. He ended with 16 rushes for 65 yards and a TD he also had four catches for 43 yards.
