New York Giants Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

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.

After being cut by the Broncos yesterday, TE Greg Dulcich was claimed by the New York Giants. He enters a thin TE room though rookie Theo Johnson has a strong hold on the starting job.

The Broncos waived TE Greg Dulcich. The 2022 third-rounder flashed as a rookie but has struggled with injuries for much of his time in the NFL. He's been a healthy scratch for Denver's last eight games. We'll see where Dulcich lands, but it's not a good sign when you're released before your rookie contract is up. Dulcich is not a must-hold in dynasty leagues.

Giants QB Tommy DeVito completed 21 of 31 passes for 189 yards and no TDs. He also ran seven times for 32 yards. The Buccaneers defense was able to get pressure and DeVito was not accurate enough to overcome. WR Malik Nabers led the team with nine targets, but only caught six for 64 yards.

Giants WR Malik Nabers (groin) is active for today’s game vs. the Buccaneers. There have been no reports about his snaps being limited. The groin and QB Tommy DeVito add risk to his Week 12 fantasy profile. But Nabers would be tough to leave out of fantasy lineups against Tampa Bay’s 29th-ranked WR defense.

Giants WR Malik Nabers (groin) is expected to play vs. the Bucs today, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Nabers did not practice on Friday and is listed as questionable. He's reportedly been dealing with this groin issue since college, though, and was confident on Friday that he'd be able to play in this one. We'll look for further updates on his status. But, at this point, Nabers would be tough to leave out of fantasy lineups against Tampa Bay's 29th-ranked WR defense.

The Giants on Saturday activated Edge Kayvon Thibodeaux from IR. He missed the past five games following surgery for a wrist fracture. Thibodeaux was deemed questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, but his activation indicates he's ready to play.

Giants WR Darius Slayton (concussion) put in a full week of practice and is not listed on the final injury report for Sunday’s game vs. the Buccaneers. He’s just a desperation WR4 for now but would upgrade to WR3 status if WR Malik Nabers misses this game with his groin injury.

Giants WR Malik Nabers (groin) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Buccaneers. He was added to the injury report on Friday and did not practice. The Athletic’s Charlotte Carroll notes that Nabers said back in October that he’s been dealing with this groin issue since college. Nabers told ESPN’s Jordan Raanan on Friday that he expects to play on Sunday. We’ll look for further updates on the rookie’s status.

Giants WR Malik Nabers is not practicing on Thursday due to a groin injury, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. It's a new injury for Nabers, who wasn't listed on the injury report Wednesday or Thursday. We'll look for further updates on the rookie and see how he's listed on the final injury report later today.

Giants WR Darius Slayton (concussion) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. Barring a setback, he'll play against the Bucs this weekend. Tampa Bay ranks 29th in adjusted fantasy points allowed to WRs, but Slayton would be a desperation fantasy play with QB Tommy DeVito.

Giants WR Malik Nabers caught a high pass in the fourth quarter from QB Daniel Jones resulting in him being flipped over and landing on his head. Nabers was evaluated for a concussion on the sideline but returned to the game. He ended up six catches on 10 targets for 50 yards.

Tracy was essentially responsible for two key turnovers late in the game against the Panthers. He fumbled in overtime and gave up a catch that turned into an interception for Panthers LB Josey Jewell in the red zone in the fourth quarter. Those essentially wiped away a solid rushing performance for him, with 18 carries for 103 yards and a TD. He also caught a pass for one yard.

Giants K Graham Gano (hamstring) is active for this morning’s game vs. the Panthers. It’ll be his first action since Week 2. You can likely do better than Gano in Week 10 fantasy lineups.

Giants K Graham Gano (hamstring) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday morning’s game vs. the Panthers. We’ll see if he makes it back for this one after missing the past seven games, but you should stay away from this situation in Week 10 fantasy lineups.

Giants WR Darius Slayton (concussion) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Panthers. He figures to be replaced by WR Jalin Hyatt, who’s only a flier in DFS tournaments. Hyatt has drawn a target on just 8% of his routes this season. (Slayton is at 15% for comparison.)

Giants WR Darius Slayton (concussion) did not practice on Wednesday. He'll need to get back on the practice field tomorrow to have a chance to play vs. the Panthers in Germany on Sunday. At this point, fantasy owners should not be counting on having Slayton for Week 10 fantasy lineups.

Giants Edge Kayvon Thibodeaux is eligible to return from IR ahead of this week's game against the Panthers in Germany. But HC Brian Daboll told reporters Monday that he doesn't expect Thibodeaux to be activated for Week 10. The edge starter has missed the past four games following surgery to repair a wrist fracture.

Giants WR Darius Slayton sustained a concussion in the Week 9 loss to the Commanders. It's his second concussion of the season, with the first coming in the opener. We'll track Slayton's progress through the protocol this coming week, but consider him no better than 50/50 to play vs. the Panthers next Sunday morning in Germany.

Giants TE Theo Johnson tallied 3 receptions for 51 yards among 6 targets in Sunday's loss to the Commanders. Most of his production came on a 35-yard catch-and-run TD late in the fourth quarter that marked Johnson's first NFL score.

Giants WR Malik Nabers racked up 9 receptions on 11 targets in Sunday's loss to the Commanders, leading the team in both categories. He accounted for 42.3% of targets, 45% of completions, and 33.9% of receiving yards -- despite tallying just 59 yards (6.6 per catch).
