When Will Keenan Allen Return and Be Back? Fantasy Football Injury Update

Keenan Allen may be done with the 2023 season and the 2023 season may be done with Keenan Allen. The star wideout for the Los Angeles Chargers has missed three straight games with a heel injury.

Darius Slayton Tops 100 Yards, Scores Against Los Angeles

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton used an 80-yard touchdown bomb to cross triple-digit receiving yards in the team's 26-25 loss to the Los Angeles Rams. Once again, Slayton led the team in receiving and widened the gap between him and the other receiving options on the season. The Rams entered the game frequently […]

Saquon Barkley Contained By Stout Los Angeles Run Defense

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley rushed for 39 yards on 12 attempts and added three catches for 19 yards in the passing game in the team's loss to the Los Angeles Rams.

Daniel Bellinger Not Worth Considering In Week 17

New York Giants tight end Daniel Bellinger tallied four catches for 43 yards against the Philadelphia Eagles last week, but it's highly unlikely he'll replicate those numbers against the Los Angeles Rams. Both of those were season-high marks and the second-year professional sits behind Darren Waller on the tight end depth chart. The Giants' offense […]

Jalin Hyatt Sputtering Toward The End Of The Season

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt hasn't logged a catch in two weeks and didn't even earn a target in the team's loss to the Eagles in Week 16. The rookie has pulled a disappearing act since the first 100-yard performance of his career against New England in Week 12. Inconsistent quarterback play is […]

Darius Slayton Remains a Boom/Bust Option In Week 17

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton, fresh off one of his best games of the 2023 campaign, draws the Los Angeles Rams at home in Week 17. The matchup isn't anything to worry about, but the inconsistent play is. Despite being the Giants' leading receiver this season, the veteran has logged double-digit PPR points […]

Darren Waller Poised For A Big Game In Week 17?

New York Giants tight end Darren Waller (knee) popped up on the team's injury report this week, but he has no official designation for Sunday, logging full practices on Thursday and Friday.

Tyrod Taylor A Low-End QB2 In Return To Starting Role

New York Giants quarterback Tyrod Taylor returns to the starting lineup in Week 17, replacing ineffective rookie Tommy Devito. The Giants coaching staff opted to turn to the veteran halfway through last week's game and saw enough to name him the starter once again. It will be Taylor's first start since Week 8. While the […]

Amari Cooper's Status For Thursday Night Football Uncertain

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Amari Cooper (heel) is a true question mark for Thursday night's matchup against the New York Jets.

Cooper is coming off a 265-yard, […]

When Will C.J. Stroud Return and Be Back? Fantasy Football Injury Update

Stay afloat, stay alive. That's been the Texans' mantra without rookie sensation C.J. Stroud under center. He's been held out of the last two games with a concussion suffered in Week 14.

When Will Jaylen Waddle Return and Be Back? Fantasy Football Injury Update

We may have seen the last of penguin waddles in 2023. And I'm not talking about the adorable animals in Antarctica.

Darius Slayton Catches Long Touchdown Versus Philadelphia

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton took advantage of a soft Philadelphia secondary en route to three catches for 90 yards and a touchdown.

Saquon Barkley Turns 26 Touches Into Productive Evening

New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley took advantage of 26 touches to produce for fantasy managers in the team's 33-25 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles.

Tyrod Taylor Throws Long Touchdown, Interception In Relief Duty

New York Giants quarterback Tyrod Taylor stepped in for Tommy Devito halfway through the team's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles, sparking what had been an inept offense in the first half.

Tommy DeVito Benched Against Philadelphia

New York Giants quarterback Tommy Devito endured a regrettable first half in Monday's matchup versus the Philadelphia Eagles and was not given the chance to redeem himself.
