Darius Slayton Assured Of A Roster Spot
New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton's two-year, $12 million deal should assure that he's a roster lock heading into the 2023 season, but he could be on the chopping block next offseason if he regresses this year. Slayton saw a significant role in his fourth NFL season in 2022 given all the injuries at […]
Joshua Ezeudu Expected To Win Left-Guard Job
The Athletic's Dan Duggan is guessing that New York Giants offensive lineman Joshua Ezeudu will win the starting left-guard job this summer in training camp.

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones had 120 carries last year, which ranked fourth-most among QBs.

Fantasy Football Tight End Risers and Fallers - Yardage Regression Candidates
If only NFL players performed exactly as they should, am I right? And I'm not talking about our own personal projections because that's incredibly subjective.

Daniel Jones Impressed With Darren Waller
New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones has enjoyed getting to know new tight end Darren Waller at organized team activities this spring. "But he's like a true 6-foot-6.

Dalton Kincaid Fantasy Football Profile - NFL Rookie Sleeper
For the past two years, fantasy managers have longed for the Buffalo Bills to add another wide receiver if only to stop the dreadful Gabriel Davis debate.

The team is hoping he’ll be their franchise quarterback for years to come and can revitalize one of the […]
Gary Brightwell Could Be Buried On Depth Chart
New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley is the team's unquestioned workhorse back. He played 80 percent of the offensive snaps last year. Matt Breida was a speedy complement to Barkley who also worked well in tandem with the star runner in multi-back packages. He's the favorite to be the backup again. Gary Brightwell had […]

Eric Gray Should Be No. 3 Running Back
New York Giants running back Saquon Barkley is the team's unquestioned lead back, with Matt Breida expected to once again serve as his primary backup in 2023. But rookie Eric Gray, a fifth-round pick (172nd overall) this year, should supplant Gary Brightwell for the No. 3 job this year. Obviously, there will be limited opportunities […]
Jalin Hyatt May Not Have Substantial Role
The Athletic's Dan Duggan writes that New York Giants rookie wide receiver Jalin Hyatt, who was taken in the third round (73rd overall) of this year's draft, may struggle to find a substantial role in the offense immediately due to the team's crowded receivers room and the need for him to develop his all-around skill […]
