Rueben Randle Fantasy News
Thursday, February 14, 2013, 12:31pm
Giants WR Rueben Randle did finish his rookie year well, including a four-catch, two-touchdown performance in the season-ending victory over Philadelphia. He caught 19 passes in 16 games – 10 of them in 2 games (6 vs. Cleveland and 4 vs. Philadelphia). Clearly, he needs to provide more consistent production. But the Giants believe he will do that as an NFL sophomore. Right now, Randle is the heavy favorite to be the Giants’ third wideout in 2013, with Hakeem Nicks and Victor Cruz as the starters. Assuming his stays healthy, I would be very surprised if Randle didn’t at least double his number of reception next season.

Hakeem Nicks unsure of Week 17 status
Wednesday, December 26, 2012, 6:21pm
Giants WR Hakeem Nicks said he isn't sure yet if he'll play Sunday. As for if knee will need offseason surgery, he said he'll try rest first.
Domenik Hixon and Rueben Randle figure to benefit the most if Nicks can't play on Sunday.
Hixon, Torain OUT for Giants

Giants Inactives
Marvin Austin DT
Travis Beckum TE
Domenik Hixon WR
Adewale Ojomo DE
Adrien Robinson TE
Ryan Torain RB
Jacquian Williams OLB
With Hixon out, rookie Rueben Randle will continue to work as WR3. Kregg Lumpkin is active with newly signed Ryan Torain inactive. He will work behind Bradshaw and Wilson.

Giants WR Domenik Hixon will practice on Thursday.
Hixon played more snaps (19) than did Rueben Randle (9) the last time the two players made it through a full game, so Hixon likely will return to his role as the Giants' WR3.
Hakeem Nicks missing practice with swollen knee
Wednesday, November 7, 2012, 11:56am
Giants WR Hakeem Nicks' knee swelled up and he will not practice today.
Nicks' knee is swollen. If he can't play, Domenik Hixon will be a sneaky start. Rueben Randle has been playing ahead of Ramses Barden the last three weeks, and would likely be in line for WR3 duties.

WR Victor Cruz was announced as having a rib injury after being hit by Pittsburgh’s Ryan Clark in the end zone in the first half, but he finished the game and said he just got the wind knocked out of him.
It is interesting to note that he uncharacteristically was not on the field for a few early plays in the game. Rookie Rueben Randle got more opportunities in this game.
“It was just part of the game plan, something coach wanted to do,” Cruz said. “So that was it. I don’t know (why), you’re going to have to ask coach I guess for that one.”
Nicks' knee not getting better
Monday, October 1, 2012, 5:54pm
Giants coach Tom Coughlin said WR Hakeem Nicks' knee isn't any better.
Coughlin was asked how concerned he was and replied: "How much concern can I show you?" Nicks' Week 5 status doesn't look very good at this point as the Giants play the Browns. Ramses Barden and Domenick Hixson will pick up the slack with Rueben Randle possibly in the mix.
