The Giants are moving QB Jameis Winston ahead of Russell Wilson on the depth chart, according to multiple reports. That's especially newsworthy this week, of course, because Jaxson Dart sustained a concussion in Sunday's loss to the Bears. If the rookie's not ready for this Sunday's home date with the Packers, then Winston would start.
Giants QB Jaxson Dart left Sunday's game in the 3rd quarter for a concussion check. Dart tallied 241 passing yards and 6-67-2 rushing prior to leaving. Russell Wilson is currently in the game for the Giants.
Update: Dart has been ruled out with a concussion. Consider him no better than 50/50 to be cleared for next weekend's game vs. the Packers.
Giants decision makers apparently decided they didn't feel like seeing anymore late fourth-quarter passes fired through the back of the end zone. According to multiple reports, the team plans to start rookie QB Jaxson Dart instead of Russell Wilson this Sunday against the Chargers.
Giants WR Malik Nabers caught only 2 of 7 targets for 13 yards in Sunday’s Week 3 loss to Kansas City. Russell Wilson took a major step back, while the Giants managed only one TD in the 13-point loss.
ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that the Giants say there's "no sense of urgency" to switch from QB Russell Wilson to first-round rookie Jaxson Dart. Wilson completed just 45.9% of his passes at 4.5 yards per attempt in a 15-point Week 1 loss at Washington.
Per The Athletic's Dan Duggan, HC Brian Daboll said that QB Russell Wilson will start New York's Week 2 game in Dallas.
Giants HC Brian Daboll declined to commit to QB Russell Wilson as the team's starter going forward after the Week 1 loss to Washington, according to ESPN's Jordan Raanan. Wilson struggled vs. the Commanders, completing just 17 of 37 passes (46%) for 168 scoreless yards (4.5 YPA).
NFL Network reports that the Giants have a "package of plays" ready for QB Jaxson Dart in today's game vs. the Commanders. QB Russell Wilson will start, but Dart will be active as the No. 2 QB, ahead of Jameis Winston.
Per ESPN's Adam Schefter, the New York Giants' official Week 1 depth chart lists first-round rookie QB Jaxson Dart as the team's primary backup behind Russell Wilson
Giants QB Russell Wilson remains the Giants’ starter, per beat writer Connor Hughes, “with no real push from anyone to unseat him.”
Giants HC Brian Daboll said Wednesday that QB Russell Wilson is his starter. "These guys will be out here competing, but Russ is the starter," Daboll said.
The Giants are signing QB Russell Wilson to a one-year deal. ESPN's Adam Schefter reports that it's worth "up to" $21 million, with $10.5 million of that guaranteed.
Steelers WR George Pickens (hamstring) is out for Saturday's game vs. the Ravens. He remained sidelined in practice all week, leaving him uncertain for Week 17. TE Pat Freiermuth is the only member of Pittsburgh's passing game that should be in fantasy lineups this week.
Steelers WR George Pickens reportedly has a Grade 2 Hamstring strain and will likely miss next week's game against the Eagles. Pickens missed yesterday's game against the Browns as a game-time decision, but the injury appears to be more severe than describing this week.
Steelers QB Russell Wilson threw for a season-low 158 yards in Sunday's win over the Browns. He completed 15 of 26 attempts (57.7%), with 2 TDs and no INTs. Wilson took just 1 sack and didn't turn the ball over.
Steelers WR George Pickens (hamstring) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Browns. Reports on his status for this one were positive this morning, but Pickens’ pregame workout must not have gone well. His absence leaves a huge hole in Pittsburgh’s passing game. Pickens has accounted for 24% of the team's targets, 24% of the receptions, 32% of the receiving yards, and 30% of the receiving TDs since QB Russell Wilson took over. WRs Calvin Austin, Van Jefferson, and Mike Williams could all pick up extra targets, along with TEs Pat Freiermuth and Darnell Washington. But we’ll also likely see the Steelers lean even more on the run game. Russell Wilson is not a recommended QB1 play with Pickens out.
The forecast for tonight's Steelers-Browns game calls for temperatures just above freezing, 85% chance of precipitation, and winds of 15-20 mph with gusts of 25-30 mph. That's ugly. Expect an even run-heavier game plan from the Steelers than usual and for the Browns to run more than they typically do. And don't expect many points. This game has 36.5-point over/under. We'd avoid both QBs and kickers in the game and downgrade the WRs. See where all the Steelers and Browns sit in the updated Week 12 Rankings.
