New York Giants DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

New York Giants quarterback Tommy DeVito (concussion) cleared concussion protocol on Friday and has been removed from the injury report, according to ESPN's Jordan Raanan. Meanwhile, fellow quarterback Drew Lock (heel, left elbow) practiced again and has also been removed from the injury report, as expected. The Giants intend to start Lock at quarterback in Week 16 against the Atlanta Falcons, which means that DeVito will return to the backup role. Lock has completed just 51.9 percent of passes through two starts with just 405 yards, zero touchdowns, and three turnovers. On a more positive note, he has flashed impressive mobility with 116 rushing yards on nine attempts. Lock has also shown that he can support strong production from the Giants' receivers, including Malik Nabers, who caught 13 of his 23 targets for 148 yards through Lock's two starts. Fantasy managers should view Lock as a high-end QB3 option this week.

According to Dan Salomone of Giants.com, quarterback Drew Lock (heel/elbow) was upgraded to a full participant during Thursday's practice. After logging a limited session on Wednesday, Lock is now on track to suit up on Sunday to face the Atlanta Falcons. Lock was unable to suit up last weekend due to these injuries but should be expected to reclaim his starting duties on Sunday. While sidelined, Tommy DeVito got the starting nod and tallied only 68 passing yards during their loss to the Baltimore Ravens before exiting early. In his two previous starts, Lock posted a 51.9% completion rate, averaging 202.5 yards per game with one rushing score. Lock should only be viewed as a desperation QB2 in deep Superflex formats this weekend, facing the Atlanta Falcons, who have allowed the seventh-most PPR points to opposing QBs this season.

According to Dan Salomone of Giants.com, rookie running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (ankle) was a limited participant again during Thursday's practice. Fantasy managers should closely monitor his status during Friday's session as he will likely need to log a full practice to avoid an injury designation for Sunday's game. Tracy has battled a lingering ankle injury throughout the season but he has yet to miss any time due to it. Last weekend, Tracy only logged ten carries as the Giants were trailing heavily throughout. Over his past nine games, the rookie running back has averaged 4.4 yards per carry while scoring 14.1 PPR points per game. If Tracy is able to suit up on Sunday, he should be viewed as a low-end RB2 facing the Atlanta Falcons, who have allowed the 11th-fewest PPR points to opposing running backs this season.

According to Dan Salomone of Giants.com, wide receivers Malik Nabers (knee/foot) and Wan'Dale Robinson (shoulder) practiced in full on Thursday. Both wideouts were able to upgrade from their limited status on Wednesday, putting them both in a great position to suit up this weekend to face the Atlanta Falcons. Nabers has battled several injuries throughout his rookie campaign. Last weekend, Nabers brought in ten of his 14 targets for 82 yards and a score. Robinson was only able to bring in four of his nine targets for 38 yards. Fantasy managers should monitor their status on Friday in case they face a setback. Nabers should be viewed as a high-end WR2 facing a weak Atlanta secondary, while Robinson is a solid flex option in PPR formats.

New York Giants rookie running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. (ankle) was added to the Week 16 injury report on Wednesday after he put in a limited practice. It's a new injury for Tracy, so his status is worth watching the rest of the week, but if he's able to upgrade to a full practice on Thursday or Friday, he should be fine to play in a Week 16 tilt against the Atlanta Falcons on the road this weekend. The 25-year-old rookie has taken over lead-back duties from Devin Singletary for the majority of the season and has averaged 16.6 touches and 84.5 scrimmage yards in the last 10 games while also adding five rushing touchdowns. The fantasy upside certainly isn't very high given the Giants' pitiful quarterback situation -- Singletary is a threat to vulture TDs as well -- but for the volume alone, Tracy garners RB3/flex appeal if he's active for Week 16.
