Giants K Graham Gano to be placed on COVID last

Nov 17, 2020

The New York Giants will place kicker Graham Gano on the COVID-19/reserve list after he tested positive on Monday night, a person with knowledge told NorthJersey.com and USA TODAY Network.

Fantasy Impact:

The story went on to say, the Giants say they were notified of the positive test for a player, but did not immediately disclose his identity. That player was self-isolated, and the contact tracing process has been initiated. Two close contacts identified are staff members (not coaches or players) and were told to stay home Tuesday. The team is on a bye week, but the training center in East Rutherford remains open for staff. Gano has a chance to be ready for Week 12 depending on how further tests turn out.

Kittle returns to a great matchup against a Packers defense that ranks 26th in TE aFPA. He should be fired up as a high-end TE1 once again.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
