Giants Beat: WR Kadarius Toney's ankle injury more serious than sprain

New York Daily News

Oct 19, 2021 · 12:16 PM EDT

This Giants season is on the verge of skidding off the rails. Wide receiver Kadarius Toney and left tackle Andrew Thomas both are likely to miss time with their injuries, the News has learned.

Toney aggravated his right ankle injury and is being further evaluated, but sources have indicated it’s more serious than a simple sprain.

Fantasy Impact:

Toney hurt is ankle in Week 5 and was questionable to play in Week 6. He did, but left the game in the first quarter much to the disappointment of fantasy owners. Toney looked like he was flying up the depth chart, but if this injury is more serious he's likely going to miss time. That would keep Shepard and Slayton in the fantasy conversation behind Golladay, once they can get back on the field.

Giants get boost at wide receiver

The Giants had WRs Sterling Shepard (hamstring), Darius Slayton (hamstring), and Kadarius Toney (ankle) all practiced in some capacity Wednesday. Shepard and Slayton have missed the past two games while Toney was injured in Week 5's loss to Dallas.

Related Player: John Ross

Fantasy Impact:

The returns of Shepard and Slayton are huge, especially if Daniel Jones (concussion) were to miss Week 6 and Mike Glennon starts. A healthy wide receiver corps is needed with the Los Angeles Rams visiting Week 6.

Giants Beat: Game plan going forward sure to feature WR Kadarius Toney

Kadarius Toney was banged up late against the Cowboys and is dealing with an ankle problem that has his status for Sunday's game against the Rams in doubt. Still, he is proving he might be the scariest weapon on this offense, even when running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) and receiver Kenny Golladay (knee) are healthy. The game plan is sure to feature him significantly more moving forward than early this season, when he was still getting up to speed.

Fantasy Impact:

The story went as far to say Toney "needs" to be a big part of the game plan going forward. However, as the story also said, Toney is banged up at the moment with an ankle injury so he may not suit up for Week 6. The same can be said for Shepard and Slayton as well. And, if Toney is a big part going forward when everyone is healthy, Shepard and Slayton likely move down a notch on the depth chart.

Rapoport: Giants WR Kenny Golladay (knee) expected to miss Week 6

Giants WR Kenny Golladay is expected to miss this week with a knee injury, source said.

Fantasy Impact:

That Giants are banged up at all their skill positions. But, Golladay's injury status is a major sigh of relief all around for the Giants. The initial fear was that it was major, according to the tweet, but should be just a week or two, according to Rapoport. Still, Shepard and Slayton have missed the last two weeks and now Toney could miss time with a foot/ankle injury. With Saquon Barkley out, and QB Daniel Jones' status up in the air with a concussion, the G-men could be looking at Ross, Johnson and Board as their top three WRs in Week 6 ... with Mike Glennon at QB ... and at home against the Rams defense.
