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

ESPN

Oct 12, 2021 · 10:44 AM EDT

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.

Related players: Sterling Shepard, Darius Slayton

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.

Rapoport: Giants WR Kenny Golladay (knee) expected to miss Week 6

Giants WR Kenny Golladay is expected to miss this week with a knee injury, source said.

Fantasy Impact:

That Giants are banged up at all their skill positions. But, Golladay's injury status is a major sigh of relief all around for the Giants. The initial fear was that it was major, according to the tweet, but should be just a week or two, according to Rapoport. Still, Shepard and Slayton have missed the last two weeks and now Toney could miss time with a foot/ankle injury. With Saquon Barkley out, and QB Daniel Jones' status up in the air with a concussion, the G-men could be looking at Ross, Johnson and Board as their top three WRs in Week 6 ... with Mike Glennon at QB ... and at home against the Rams defense.

Giants WR Kadarius Toney dealing with foot/ankle injury

Giants rookie WR Kadarius Toney appeared to hurt his foot/ankle in the game and Joe Judge said he saw a doctor today.

Fantasy Impact:

Golladay also left the game and Shepard and Slayton have been out dealing with soft tissue injuries. As for Toney, "I don't think it's anything significant, in terms of season-ending," Judge said. But it does sound like his status is in doubt for this week, according to the tweet. QB Daniel Jones is possibly out as well, which would leave the QB1 spot to Mike Glennon. The Giants offense looks like one to stay away from as they host the Rams in Week 6. If Slayton and Shepard are out, Ross, Johnson and Board could be the team's WRs.

Giants to let league hand punishments for WR Kadarius Toney

CBS Sports

Oct 11, 2021 · 8:19 AM EDT

HC Joe Judge said he's allow the league to handle any punishment that involves a suspension for Kadarius Toney. The Giants can't afford to lose Toney with the injuries to Kenny Golladay, Darius Slayton, and Sterling Shepard -- not after his 10 catches doubled the season total through his first three games. Toney had just 92 receiving yards prior to Sunday's game.

Fantasy Impact:

Toney was ejected for throwing a punch at Cowboys safety Damontae Kazee in the fourth quarter of Sunday's loss. Toney had his breakout game in the NFL, even though all the discussion involves around his actions when he wasn't catching the football. He finished with 10 catches for 189 yards -- becoming the first Giants rookie with 10 catches and 175 yards in a game since Odell Beckham Jr. in 2014, the story said.
