New York Giants DVOA, Stats, & NFL Rankings

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers heads into a promising Week 8 matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Monday Night Football. Nabers has been productive this season, averaging 19.9 fantasy points per game with 427 receiving yards and three touchdowns, and he's seen consistent volume with 60 targets. After returning from a two-week concussion absence, Nabers led the team with 41 receiving yards on four catches against the Eagles in Week 7, though the Giants' passing game struggled overall. Facing a Steelers defense ranked 22nd in pass defense (allowing 217.3 yards per game) and with eight receiving touchdowns allowed, Nabers could be poised for a bounce-back, especially given his five end zone targets on the season.

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary faces a daunting matchup in Week 8 on the road against the Steelers' elite run defense. Singletary has averaged 10.9 fantasy points per game this season with 239 rushing yards and two touchdowns, but his Week 7 return from injury yielded just 18 rushing yards and three receiving yards as he played second fiddle to Tyrone Tracy Jr. The Steelers' defense, ranked second in the NFL against the run and allowing only 81.1 rushing yards per game, has stifled opposing backs, giving up just three rushing touchdowns all season. With a limited share of backfield touches and Pittsburgh's eighth-best fantasy defense against RBs, Singletary faces long odds of breaking out in this matchup.

New York Giants running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. faces a tough matchup in Week 8 against a formidable Steelers rush defense on Monday Night Football. Tracy has averaged 7.7 fantasy points per game with 231 rushing yards, one touchdown, and a 42.4% timeshare. Despite being the lead back in Week 7, he managed only 23 rushing yards and nine receiving yards in a 28-3 loss to the Eagles. The Steelers boast the NFL's second-ranked rushing defense, allowing just 81.1 yards per game and only three rushing touchdowns all season. With Pittsburgh's eighth-best defense against fantasy RBs, Tracy may struggle to find openings, making him a risky play in fantasy formats this week.

Pittsburgh Steelers quarterback Russell Wilson will follow up an impressive Week 7 outing with a Monday night showdown against the New York Giants. Wilson found the end zone three times last week in what should have been a difficult matchup against the Jets' defense. The Giants have been much more generous to quarterbacks this season than their New York counterparts, surrendering the 10th-most fantasy points per game to the position. However, this contest is projected to be the lowest-scoring affair of the week and should make for a relatively slow-paced environment. Wilson could be a potential streaming candidate in single-quarterback leagues at some point in 2024, but for now, he's best viewed as a low-end QB2 in superflex formats and should only be started as such in Week 8.

Cleveland Browns quarterback Jameis Winston will step in as the team's starter for a Week 8 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. Winston will make his first start for the Browns after the team lost Deshaun Watson to a season-ending Achilles injury during a Week 7 loss. The veteran quarterback draws a plus matchup against a Ravens secondary that is allowing the third-most fantasy points per game to opposing quarterbacks in 2024. It is tough to predict how Winston will play for a Cleveland offense that has issues at offensive line but he is worth a look as a boom/bust QB2 in fantasy heading into the weekend.
