The New York Giants defense racked up their first two turnovers of the season against the Miami Dolphins in Week 5.

Andrew Ball 1 year agoJalin Hyatt Still Looking To Make An Impact
New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt is seeing more time on the playing field but is still failing to make much of an impact. In the rookie's last three games, he's been shut out twice and caught just two passes for 10 yards in the other. The entire Giants' offense has been a disaster […]
Andrew Ball 1 year agoIsaiah Hodgins Seeing Snap Numbers Tumble
New York Giants wide receiver Isaiah Hodgins may not get a ton of opportunities to show off against his former team, the Buffalo Bills, in Week 6. After playing at least 60% of the offensive snaps in Weeks 1-3, his time on the field dipped below 40% in Weeks 4 and 5. On the season, […]

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton remains second on the team in targets for the 2023 season but hasn't put together one fantasy-worthy game so far.

Andrew Ball 1 year agoDarren Waller Questionable For Matchup Against Tough Buffalo Defense
New York Giants tight end Darren Waller (groin) is questionable for Sunday night's matchup against the Buffalo Bills. The veteran picked up two limited practices after sitting out on Wednesday.

New York Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson (knee) has no official injury designation for Week 6, despite a pair of limited practices to end the week.

Andrew Ball 1 year agoNFL Pick 'Em Pool Picks (Week 6) - Targets, Avoids, Predictions for Pickem Contests
Two undefeated teams (and one winless team) remain as Week 6 of the NFL season begins. It's not always that clear-cut, however. Some one-loss teams have looked shaky. A few teams with two losses or more are presumably better than their record shows. And, somehow, the Steelers are atop the AFC North. Each week of […]

New York Giants quarterback Tyrod Taylor will be under center on Sunday night with starter Daniel Jones (neck) ruled out.

Andrew Ball 1 year agoShould I Drop Skyy Moore? Fantasy Football Outlook
Patrick Mahomes is a top-6 quarterback in fantasy football heading into Week 6. Only one Chiefs' wide receiver sits in the top 50 in scoring in PPR formats. Wideout play in Kansas City has been inconsistent, at best. Drops have been a problem but playing time is the biggest deterrent to finding gold in one […]

Cleveland Browns quarterback P.J. Walker will be on the active roster on Sunday and could serve as the starter if Deshaun Watson (shoulder) can't suit up.

Miami Dolphins running back Salvon Ahmed (groin/coach's decision) is practicing in full this week as he prepares to make his return to the gameday roster.

Baltimore Ravens running back Keaton Mitchell (shoulder) is practicing in full as he prepares to possibly make his NFL debut.

With all of the focus Tua Tagovailoa, Tyreek Hill, and Jaylen Waddle receive from opposing defenses, the running game for Miami has become quite the revelation. Veteran Raheem Mostert started the party with three touchdowns in the first two games of the season. De’Von Achane joined the fiesta in Week 3 when the duo scored […]

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Anthony Richardson (shoulder) is believed to have suffered a Grade 3 AC joint sprain. If an MRI confirms the diagnosis, the rookie could be out a month or more.

A couple of weeks ago, a friend messaged and jokingly scolded me for listing half of his roster in my busts column. It wasn't a jab at him. We weren't even matched up that week. The busts were based on matchups and advanced metrics, and not overall performance on the season. Many fantasy managers are […]
