Team news: New York Giants | Page 7

Texans running back Dameon Pierce not practicing for third day in a row due to ankle injury suffered in fourth quarter against Panthers and he's not expected to play Sunday against Buccaneers Devin Singletary has run with first offense all week and is prepping to start.

Singletary has actually outperformed Pierce on a per-carry basis 3.0-to-3.7 but the running game has been less than inspiring to this point in the season. Pierce should take the majority of the touches in Week 9, which makes him an RB2 option.

Giants’ TE Darren Waller will miss Sunday’s game vs. the Raiders due to his hamstring injury.

Related Players: Daniel Bellinger

Daniel Bellinger is a real potential replacement for any time that Waller misses after he had a few splashes of production during his rookie year prior to an eye injury. This week's tight end position isn't quite desperate enough to consider him, but next week could be a different story.

Giants quarterback Daniel Jones says he’s ready to return from the neck injury that has cost him the last three games.

Jones said today on Up & Adams that he’s good to go for this week’s game against the Raiders.

“I’m cleared, I’m ready to go,” Jones said, “ready to play on Sunday.”

As the rest of the story summed up well, the Giants passing game was a historic disaster on Sunday, bad with Taylor and even worse when Taylor got hurt and DeVito replaced him.

Giants’ QB Tyrod Taylor was discharged from the hospital today after being taken there Sunday for precautionary reasons due to a rib injury, per source.

For now, Taylor is considered week to week, Schefter said. Reports say Jones is expected to practice this week and has a chance to play in Week 9. DeVito came in after Taylor went down and would likely get the call if neither Taylor nor Jones can play in Week 9. It's a situation worth monitoring but DeVito wouldn't seem to be an enticing fantasy option, even in the deepest of leagues.

Giants QB Daniel Jones has been cleared for contact.

Jones was examined before yesterday’s game the post went on to say. It's good timing for the Giants who lost a late lead against the Jets this past week. Taylor was taken to the hospital for a rib injury and DeVito didn't look great at times.

Daniel Jones is OUT Sunday per head coach Brian Daboll

Related Players: Tyrod Taylor

Taylor has a top-ten and QB19 finish over the last weeks, but the latter is more to be expected in Week 8. Jones had a great projection heading into the year but fantasy managers shouldn't be afraid to drop him at this point.

Reserve/Injured:
▪️ RB Eric Gray

Claimed off Waivers from Cleveland:
▪️ RB Deon Jackson

Related players: Matt Breida, Gary Brightwell, Saquon Barkley

Gray was a bigger name in the dynasty world and was running as the Giants RB4, or most recently with Barkley out as the RB3. Jackson likely takes over that role. Jackson had a nice run a season ago when Jonathan Taylor was hurt, but since then has mostly bounced around.

Giants quarterback Daniel Jones has missed the last two games with a neck injury and there’s no change to his status to report on Monday.

Head coach Brian Daboll said in a video conference with reporters that he had “no update” to share about Jones’ condition.

Jones took part in practice on a limited basis last week and is able to throw the ball, but he has not been cleared for contact since leaving in the second half of the team’s Week 5 loss to the Dolphins, the story pointed out.

Giants QB Daniel Jones (neck) will again be limited at practice today, but he has not been cleared for contact yet, according to Brian Daboll.

Not a good sign for his availability for Sunday.

Related Players: Tyrod Taylor

All signs point towards another Tyrod Taylor start in Week 7. It took Taylor 36 passing attempts (200 yards) and five rush attempts (24 yards) to claw his way to 10.4 fantasy points last week. Even in a decent matchup with the Commanders coming up, we shouldn't expect an explosive fantasy performance.

The Giants worked out Matt Barkley. This is possibly a big development related to Daniel Jones’ timeline.

Duggan thinks if the Giants sign a vet QB, that would seemingly signal they’re expecting Jones to miss extended time. Jones is dealing with a neck injury and started trending in the wrong direction late last week, with the team saying he was more sore. We'll likely know more Wednesday when the injury report comes out, or if the Giants sign another QB before that.
