New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers delivered a solid performance in Sunday's 14-11 loss to the New Orleans Saints, recording five receptions for 79 yards on 10 targets. Nabers tied for the team lead in receptions and averaged an impressive 15.8 yards per catch, including a critical 23-yard grab on the final drive to set up a potential game-tying field goal that was unfortunately blocked. Earlier in the fourth quarter, he added a crucial two-point conversion reception to bring the Giants within three points with 4:11 left. While he didn't find the end zone, Nabers' 12.4 fantasy points highlighted his role as a reliable and dynamic option in an offense that struggled to capitalize on scoring opportunities.
New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. led the backfield in Sunday's 14-11 loss to the New Orleans Saints, tallying 45 rushing yards and a touchdown on 16 carries while adding five receptions for 38 yards. Tracy's 2.8 yards per carry highlighted the difficulty he faced against a tough Saints defensive front, with his longest run gaining just seven yards. Despite the inefficiency, he was a focal point of the offense, leading the team in carries (next closest was Devin Singletary with just two) and tying for the team lead in receptions. Tracy's rushing touchdown salvaged his fantasy performance, and his dual-threat role helped him to a solid 16.8 fantasy points, making him a bright spot in an otherwise frustrating offensive outing for New York.
New York Giants quarterback Drew Lock struggled to find consistency in Sunday's 14-11 loss to the New Orleans Saints, finishing with 227 passing yards on 21 completions on 49 attempts, no touchdowns, and one interception. His 4.6 yards per attempt reflected a lack of explosiveness in the passing game, though he added 59 rushing yards, including a highlight 25-yard scramble on the final drive. That drive showed flashes of promise, as Lock connected with Malik Nabers for a clutch 23-yard reception to bring the Giants to the Saints' 12-yard line, but Graham Gano's potential game-tying field goal was blocked. Despite his mobility boosting his fantasy value to 15.98 points, Lock's inefficiency as a passer and inability to capitalize on scoring opportunities left fantasy managers and Giants fans wanting more.
New York Giants rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers (groin, hip) is officially active for Sunday's tilt against the New Orleans Saints in Week 14. Nabers was a mid-week addition to the Week 14 injury report and was limited in Thursday's practice before picking up a DNP on Friday. The 21-year-old first-rounder out of LSU has been pushing to play this week and will be active, but a limited role could be on tap, giving him bust potential against the Saints due to a lingering groin injury and a hip-flexor ailment. Fantasy managers in DFS contests should probably be looking to fade him, but those in single-year leagues may have no choice but to roll with Nabers with six teams on bye in Week 14. If Nabers doesn't see the field as much as normal, wideouts Wan'Dale Robinson and Darius Slayton figure to be the primary beneficiaries of quarterback Drew Lock's targets.
New York Giants kicker Graham Gano put together his best fantasy performance of the season last week. Gano connected on both of his field goal attempts and both extra point attempts in the loss to the Dallas Cowboys. It's worth noting that Gano has only appeared in four games this season due to injury. That being said, fantasy managers haven't been able to see much from Gano this season. The 15-year veteran has been a reliable option throughout his career, but it's hard to imagine him having much success given how poorly this offense has been lately. Gano will be a shaky choice for the Week 14 matchup against the New Orleans Saints.
