Team news: New York Giants | Page 6

Giants QB Russell Wilson went 6/7 for 26 yards in one drive in his preseason debut against the Bills.

Firmly entrenched as the starter, Wilson saw some early game action for the first time as the Giants quarterback and led a drive that resulted in a 53-yard field goal. The Giants felt one drive was enough for Wilson and went to first-round quarterback Jaxson Dart, who has thrown a touchdown pass.

Jordan Raanan, who follows the Giants said, "It's 100% Tyrone Tracy," when asked who the team's starting running back is.

Tracy is going to start and get a majority of the carries, according to Raanan. Raanan added, "there is no competition," and that Skattebo isn't healthy right now anyway. Raanan went on to call Skattebo more of a "complimentary piece," and maybe a third down, passing-type back. Tracy is our RB30 and going off the board in the mid-eighth to early-ninth round, so he at least presents some volume-based value depending how good, or bad the Giants offense is this season.

Giants HC Brian Daboll says WR Malik Nabers, who injured his shoulder this week, is “good” and will practice today.

Great sign for a potential first-round selection in fantasy. The pass-catching corps is still light in New York, so he should continue to demand a massive target share in Year 2.

Malik Nabers banged up on a run play. On the ground for a few seconds. Grabbed at his shoulder as he walked off.

Nabers went into the field house with the Giants head trainer. Ronnie Barnes then came outside and gave HC Brian Daboll an update.

Nabers did not return to practice. He appears done for the day.

We haven't seen any follow-up reports quite yet, but it doesn't seem to be too grave an issue. We'll keep an eye on his status throughout the rest of the week.

Raheem Morris won't commit to having Darnell Mooney in the lineup Week 1 against Tampa.

"We’re going with a few weeks right now," Morris said.

The initial news of this shoulder injury came on the heels of the team signing D.J. Chark to a one-year deal, which could cause further concern for Mooney, at least in the early parts of the year. Mooney is coming off a low-end WR3 season in which he popped for a few big games from time to time, so if he's sidelined, we would expect the target share to be spread pretty thin behind Drake London.

This also points to a potential larger role for Kyle Pitts.

Brian Burns will practice today. Jalin Hyatt will increase his workload. Wan’Dale Robinson won’t practice, but nothing serious per Brian Daboll. Took a knee to the thigh yesterday.

This doesn't seem to be the first time Robinson has had an injury issue during camp, so we'll see how the depth chart shakes out around him. That, combined with a torn Achilles for Bryce Ford-Wheaton could see the team add some depth (beat writers speculating Gabe Davis, who visited in May), but it could also mean someone like Theo Johnson gets extra work in the short game.

NFL league source tells me Falcons WR Darnell Mooney has a shoulder injury and will [miss] most of training camp.

This news comes fresh on the heels of the team signing DJ Chark to a one-year deal, which could be a cause for concern for Mooney, at least in the early parts of the year. Mooney is coming off a low-end WR3 season in which he popped for a few big games from time to time, so if he's sidelined, we would expect the target share to be spread pretty thin behind Drake London.

Does this open the door for Kyle Pitts?

Russell Wilson is the clear cut starter for the Giants.

"These guys will be out here competing but Russ is our starter," Brian Daboll said.

A competition for a prize that's already been awarded.

This clears things up from a Wilson vs. Dart perspective for Week 1, but that certainly doesn't mean that it will last the entire season. The betting market currently has the Giants at 5.5 wins, so nothing is locked in stone here, including the jobs of the coaching staff. Both quarterbacks can be avoided in most league types.

Brian Daboll said WR Malik Nabers is “ready to go” and expected to practice fully.

This is great news for Nabers, who has rightfully been pushed all the way into the first round of fantasy drafts. There's a not-unreasonable chance that he leads the league in target share with an incredibly thin depth chart behind him.

Reunion: Veteran QB Drew Lock agreed to terms with the Seahawks.

One of the pieces of the Russell Wilson trade, Lock is now back for a second stint in Seattle, this time backing up Sam Darnold.

Related Players: Sam Howell, Jaren Hall

Lock will battle with Howell for No. 2 duties behind Sam Darnold, and both are pretty interesting deep stashes in Superflex Dynasty leagues, due to a decent pass-catching group that could grow even stronger through the NFL Draft.
