Devontae Booker Will Play Monday Night
3 years agoNew York Giants running back Devontae Booker (hip), who was listed as questionable for Week 11, is active on Monday night against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. In four starts as the primary back for the Giants with Saquon Barkley out with an ankle sprain, Booker had 62 carries for 251 yards (4.05 yards per carry) and one touchdown while adding 14 receptions on 16 targets for 131 additional yards. He filled in nicely as an RB2/3 for fantasy managers with Barkley out, but now that Barkley is back in action for the first time since Week 5, fantasy managers can't realistically expect solid production from Booker, even if Barkley's snaps are limited in his first game back. The Buccaneers have also been the stingiest defense against the run on a per-game-basis in 2021.
