Giants Beat: Game plan going forward sure to feature WR Kadarius Toney

Oct 12, 2021

Kadarius Toney was banged up late against the Cowboys and is dealing with an ankle problem that has his status for Sunday's game against the Rams in doubt. Still, he is proving he might be the scariest weapon on this offense, even when running back Saquon Barkley (ankle) and receiver Kenny Golladay (knee) are healthy. The game plan is sure to feature him significantly more moving forward than early this season, when he was still getting up to speed.

Fantasy Impact:

The story went as far to say Toney "needs" to be a big part of the game plan going forward. However, as the story also said, Toney is banged up at the moment with an ankle injury so he may not suit up for Week 6. The same can be said for Shepard and Slayton as well. And, if Toney is a big part going forward when everyone is healthy, Shepard and Slayton likely move down a notch on the depth chart.

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.
