Giants optimistic that WR Wan'Dale Robinson will return for Week 6

Oct 14, 2022

HC Brian Daboll reportedly sounds optimistic that Wan'Dale Robinson (knee) will be back for Week 6 after missing all but nine snaps of the 2022 season.

Related Players: Marcus Johnson, Richie James Jr.

Fantasy Impact:

Robinson can be used in a variety of ways —including out of the backfield— so it's difficult to say exactly who his return will affect the most. The answer may just be Daniel Jones, who has been throwing to a myriad of options that would be third or fourth on the depth charts of most other teams. Judging by his preseason usage, when he ran 86% of his routes from the slot, he may be rotating into the lineup for Richie James Jr. in his first week back in action.

Seahawks ruled out RB Kenneth Walker III for Thursday night’s game at Chicago.

Related Players: Zach Charbonnet, Kenny McIntosh

Fantasy Impact:

No mention of Charbonnet here, so we can assume he's in a good place to take a massive workload against a Bears defense that ranks 27th in RB aFPA. Fire up Charbs as an RB2.

The Eagles list QB Jalen Hurts as DNP on their estimated practice report because of a concussion, putting his status for this weekend in doubt.

Steelers WR George Pickens officially Active for Christmas Day

Chiefs Pro-Bowl DT Chris Jones officially is inactive today vs. the Steelers.

Steelers CB Joey Porter Jr. officially is inactive, WR George Pickens officially active.

Related Players: Calvin Austin III, Van Jefferson, Mike Williams

Fantasy Impact:

The Steelers WR room looks a little more palatable with Pickens in the lineup, but it's still not enough to push Russell Wilson above deep-league SuperFlex territory. Consider Pickens a WR3 for Week 17.
