New York Giants

Former Denver Broncos tight end Greg Dulcich was claimed off waivers on Tuesday by the New York Giants, according to a source. Dulcich caught just five of 12 targets for 28 yards and no touchdowns in the first four games this year but has been a healthy scratch for Denver the last eight games. He'll now get a fresh start in the Big Apple and will serve as depth at the position behind rookie Theo Johnson (back), Chris Manhertz and Daniel Bellinger. The 24-year-old probably will not be active for the team's Thanksgiving game against the division-rival Dallas Cowboys on Thursday. When Dulcich gets himself familiarized with the Giants' offense, he'll have a tough time finding snaps for the rest of the 2024 season. Injuries limited him in his first two years with the Broncos and he caught 41 of 71 targets for 464 yards and two touchdowns in his 16 games (10 starts) with the team.

New York Giants quarterback Drew Lock took some first-team reps in Tuesday's practice, which is unusual for a QB2 in Brian Daboll's system. Starting Tommy Devito is dealing with an arm ailment but is expected to start on Thursday against the Dallas Cowboys. However, the second-year signal-caller threw for just 189 yards and led the Giants to seven points against the struggling Tampa Bay Buccaneers defense in Week 13, so another lackluster performance could result in Lock taking over the QB1 duties. That said, fantasy managers in two-QB and Superflex leagues should consider stashing Lock in case he's called into action. He has limited upside in single-QB formats, but any starter has value in the aforementioned league setups.

New York Giants quarterback Tommy Devito (forearm) will test his right forearm in practice on Tuesday but will be listed as a limited participant. Backup Drew Lock will also get some repetitions as the team prepares to face the division-rival Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving on Thursday. Head coach Brian Daboll said he's "hopeful" that DeVito plays in Week 13, but it's not 100% that he'll be active. DeVito came out of the Week 12 loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers beat up, but now we know specifically that it's his throwing forearm that is bothering him. The 26-year-old wasn't listed on the injury report on Monday but is now up in the air for this week. Either way, the Giants offense might be in trouble against a Dallas defense that surprised by beating the Washington Commanders on Sunday. Whoever is starting under center for the G-Men on Thanksgiving will be a desperation QB2 in superflex leagues.

New York Giants quarterback Tommy Devito (undisclosed) did not appear on the team's initial injury report for Week 13. DeVito was banged up during Sunday's loss to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and had to leave the game for one play, but he returned to the contest and is now trending in the right direction for Thursday's game against the Dallas Cowboys. DeVito did struggle in his first start of the 2024 campaign, completing 21 of his 31 pass attempts for 189 yards, zero touchdowns, and zero turnovers. He took four sacks but did make up some ground with his 32 rushing yards. The 26-year-old ranks as a fantasy QB3 for Week 13, even with a favorable matchup against the Cowboys on tap.

New York Giants tight end Theo Johnson (back) was a limited participant during Monday's walkthrough. Johnson was dealing with a back issue throughout the week but he still managed to suit up against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. Johnson hauled in three of his six targets for 39 yards in the loss. The fact Johnson was limited could be the Giants being cautious on a short week. They have a quick turnaround with the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving. Johnson has seen more involvement lately with six targets in three straight games. Despite that, Johnson has finished with less than 40 receiving yards in two of those games. He'll be a low-end streaming option ahead of this Thanksgiving matchup.
