Kenny Golladay Makes His Return In Week 9
3 years agoNew York Giants wide receiver Kenny Golladay (knee) is officially active for the Week 9 game against the Las Vegas Raiders. Golladay hasn't played since hyperextending his knee in Week 5 against the Dallas Cowboys on Oct. 10, so fantasy managers aren't crazy if they are hesitant to use him as a WR3/flex this weekend. Receivers Sterling Shepard (quadriceps) and Dante Pettis (shoulder), who landed on Injured Reserve, will both be out. It means that Golladay and rookie Kadarius Toney (thumb) should be peppered often with targets from quarterback Daniel Jones against the Raiders. Darius Slayton could also have an elevated role if Golladay's snaps are limited in his first game back.

Giants To Release Kenny Golladay
2 years agoThe New York Giants will release wide receiver Kenny Golladay on the first day of the new league year on March 15, according to a source. By waiting until March 15, the Giants will save $6.7 million against the 2023 salary cap. Golladay was a massive bust for the G-Men after he signed a four-year, $72 million deal as a free agent in 2021. The 29-year-old repaid the Giants by catching just 43 of his 93 targets for 602 yards and one touchdown in 26 games (18 starts) in his time with the team the last two seasons. It was a precipitous fall for Golladay after he had back-to-back 1,000-yard seasons with the Detroit Lions in 2018 and 2019. Perhaps he can bounce back with a change of scenery, but it seems unlikely given Golladay's lack of separation in recent years with the Giants.

Kenny Golladay Finds End Zone In Week 18 Loss
2 years agoNew York Giants wide receiver Kenny Golladay hauled in two of his seven targets for 30 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. With the Giants resting their starters ahead of the postseason, the expensive wideout got more playing time at wide receiver. Even though he was ineffective on the majority of his targets, the veteran wide receiver made an impressive touchdown grab, giving him his first touchdown as a member of the Giants. Despite scoring his first touchdown since 2020, Golladay likely won't see any snaps in next week's showdown versus the Minnesota Vikings in the Wild Card round.

Kenny Golladay Will Sit Out In Week 13
2 years agoNew York Giants wide receiver Kenny Golladay (illness) won't play during the Week 13 matchup against the Washington Commanders. The 29-year-old is dealing with an illness and woke up feeling worse than he did yesterday. That being said, the Giants will have Golladay sit this one out. Darius Slayton (illness) is questionable for this game, but would likely see an uptick in targets, assuming he plays. Fellow wideout Richie James (knee) is also questionable for this game, but would be a flex play if he plays on Sunday.
