Team news: New York Giants

Giants TE Theo Johnson was downgraded to out for Sunday’s game against the Raiders due to an illness.

Center John Michael Schmitz is also not traveling to Vegas for a game that could determine who gets the No. 1 pick in the 2026 NFL draft. Daniel Bellinger will likely operate as TE1 for the Giants Sunday.

Giants coach Mike Kafka confirmed QB Jaxson Dart will return to the starting lineup Monday night vs. New England.

Related Players: Jameis Winston

Winston was a lot of fun (as per usual), but Dart's rushing floor makes him a little more exciting for fantasy purposes. Consider him a back-end QB1 against a Patriots defense that has been slowed due to injury as of late.

Jaxson Dart has not yet cleared the concussion protocol yet, per coach Mike Kafka.

He will not play Sunday vs. Lions.

This is a bummer for QB streaming hopefuls. Winston still has a decent matchup against the Lions defense, but doesn't provide the type of rushing upside Dart would have. Consider Winston more in the QB15-20 range.

Jaxson Dart will practice again Thursday, per Mike Kafka. Still heading in the right direction.

Even if the team pulls back the reins a little on Dart's designed rushes, he still has the rushing upside to land as a top-15 option if he plays in Week 12. Consider him a QB streaming option, should he be cleared in time.

The Giants listed QB Jaxson Dart as a limited, non-contact participant in today's practice, his first since suffering a concussion in Week 10.

With Brian Daboll out the door, it looks as though the team will take it easy on Dart to give him a chance to rest up from his apparent Week 10 concussion. Winston is always intriguing for fantasy purposes, but he doesn't have much to throw to. Consider him a QB2 with nominal SuperFlex value.

Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart left Sunday’s game against the Bears with a concussion.

He was first taken to the medical tent and then shortly was taken to the locker room during the 4th quarter. Russell Wilson came on in place of Dart. We’ll check on his status through the week. The Giants host the Packers next week.

Not practicing today for Giants: Jermaine Eluemunor (pec), Jalin Hyatt (will be back tomorrow), Daniel Bellinger, Chauncey Golston (neck), Cor’Dale Flott (concussion), Art Green

Paulson Adebo and Jevon Holland will do “some stuff,” but not clear what that means

Related Players: Theo Johnson

This is shaping up as a decent week to stream Theo Johnson if your waiver wire is bare. It's unlikely Chris Manhertz contributes much as a pass-catcher in the event Bellinger is sidelined.

Giants RB Cam Skattebo will undergo surgery on his dislocated ankle Sunday night at a local Philadelphia hospital.

Skattebo suffered the injury in the second quarter and was immediately carted off with an air cast on. It was a tough scene for everyone to watch Skattebo in that position. The Giants will move forward with Tyrone Tracy and Devin Singletary leading the backfield. Here’s to a successful surgery and a speedy recovery for Skattebo.

Giants rookie RB Cam Skattebo was carted off with an ankle injury against the Eagles.

Fox didn’t even replay the play. That, plus the fact they put an air case on him, likely tells you all you need to know. A very unfortunate situation for the Giants and a great person. Tyrone Tracy will likely take over as the lead back with Devin Singletary also getting work.
