Scouting report

NYG RB Wayne Gallman - Week 15 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 15 vs. Philadelphia Eagles

Wayne Gallman has worked his way back into consideration as the main back for the Giants, and he finished last week’s contest against the Cowboys with 12 carries and 59 yards. He was also targeted 9 times in the passing game, catching 7 passes for an additional 40 yards receiving. However, he remains in a timeshare with Orleans Darkwa and Shane Vereen, and he faces a tough Eagles defense this week. Only the Vikings are allowing fewer fantasy points to opposing running backs this season. Gallman is worth adding to your roster, but not worth having him active this week.

NYG RB Wayne Gallman - Week 12 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 12 at Washington

Wayne Gallman had 6 carries for 19 yards last week against the Chiefs, and he added a 3-yard reception on 4 targets. Gallman should continue to get supplemental work behind Orleans Darkwa, but it’s unlikely he’ll take the starting job away, making it risky to count on him. Gallman is a fringe handcuff option, at best, and should be left on the waiver wire.

NYG RB Wayne Gallman - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 vs. Kansas City Chiefs

Wayne Gallman got 3 change-of-pace carries last week against the 49ers, but he’s definitely taken a backseat to Orleans Darkwa in the Giants run game. While he has a pretty good matchup against the Chiefs this week, there’s no reason to expect Gallman to get enough touches to warrant serious fantasy consideration. He looks like a handcuff right now.

NYG RB Wayne Gallman - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 at San Francisco 49ers

Wayne Gallman had 9 carries for 41 yards against the Rams last week, and he continues to be used as a change-of-pace option behind Orleans Darkwa. The Giants will likely run the ball a lot against the 49ers, as San Francisco has allowed the most rushing yards per game to opposing teams this season. That might give Gallman some upside if the Giants can get ahead early, but with how bad the offense has looked all season, it’s hard to bank on that. Gallman should be considered a handcuff and a desperation starter in deep leagues only, even in a great matchup.

NYG RB Wayne Gallman - Week 9 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 9 vs. Los Angeles Rams

Wayne Gallman had 5 carries and a pair of receptions for a total of 29 yards against the Seahawks before the bye last week. While it’s good to see him continually be involved in the offense, it’s hard to trust his workload when Orleans Darkwa has been more effective. Gallman is worth rostering in very large leagues in case Darkwa falters, but he shouldn’t be active in any leagues, even in a nice matchup against the Rams this week.

NYG RB Wayne Gallman - Week 7 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 7 vs. Seattle Seahawks

Wayne Gallman took a back seat to Orleans Darkwa against the Broncos last week, rushing for only 27 yards on 9 carries, while Darkwa got 21 touches out of the backfield. Gallman did catch a pair of passes, and it’s possible he starts to encroach upon Shane Vereen’s role in the passing game, but ultimately, it’s hard to trust him with Darkwa running so well. He should stay on the bench, especially in a tough matchup with Seattle.

NYG RB Wayne Gallman - Week 6 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 6 at Denver Broncos

Wayne Gallman got 16 touches last week against the Chargers, and wound up with 57 yards rushing and 25 receiving yards on 5 receptions. He led the team in rushing attempts and was tied for second with 5 targets on the day.

Gallman has a lot of long-term upside, but he’s no better than a low-end RB2 option, at best, against the Broncos this week. Denver leads the league in run defense and has yet to give up a rushing touchdown this season.
