Darius Slayton Darius Slayton Remains limited Friday
Fri, Nov 28, 2025, 3:40 PM
Slayton (hamstring) was limited in practice Friday.
Analysis: Slayton and fellow WR Wan'Dale Robinson (ankle) have been listed as limited on both of the Giants' practice reports so far this week, meaning they'll have just one more chance to prove their respective levels of health before the team potentially gives them designations ahead of Monday's contest in New England. If Robinson is active Week 13, he'll be working with rookie QB Jaxson Dart, who cleared the concussion protocol Friday. |

Wan'Dale Robinson Wan'Dale Robinson Limited again Friday
Fri, Nov 28, 2025, 3:37 PM
Robinson (ankle) practiced in a limited capacity Friday.
Analysis: Robinson and fellow WR Darius Slayton (hamstring) have been listed as limited on both of the Giants' practice reports so far this week, giving both of them just one more chance to prove their respective levels of health before the team potentially tags them with designations ahead of Monday's game in New England. If Robinson is active Week 13, he'll be on the receiving end of passes from Jaxson Dart, who cleared the concussion protocol Friday. |

Jaxson Dart Jaxson Dart Confirmed as starter for Week 13
Fri, Nov 28, 2025, 12:10 PM
Interim head coach Mike Kafka confirmed Friday that Dart (concussion) will start Monday's game at New England, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.
Analysis: The Giants announced Thursday on their first Week 13 injury report that Dart cleared the protocol for head injuries, setting him up for his first game action since a Week 10 loss in Chicago. In seven starts to begin his career, the rookie first-round pick has tossed multiple TDs on three occasions and also rushed for at least one TD in six of those outings. On Monday, Dart will be taking on a Patriots defense that has allowed the ninth-most passing scores (20) to opposing QBs in 12 contests this season. |

Darius Slayton Darius Slayton Limited on practice estimate
Thu, Nov 27, 2025, 2:29 PM
Slayton (hamstring) was listed as limited on Thursday's estimated injury report, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Analysis: Slayton has been dealing with a lingering hamstring injury since early October and was sidelined for each of Weeks 6, 7 and 11. He was able to return to action this past Sunday in Detroit, but his 63 percent snap share resulted in just one catch (on two targets) for 23 yards. Fellow WR Wan'Dale Robinson (ankle) also was listed as limited Thursday, so the status of the Giants' top two options at the position is up in the air as they prepare for Monday's contest at New England. Meanwhile, rookie QB Jaxson Dart has cleared the concussion protocol, so Slayton will be working with his typical starting signal-caller if he's active himself Week 13. |

Wan'Dale Robinson Wan'Dale Robinson Dealing with ankle injury
Thu, Nov 27, 2025, 2:22 PM
Robinson (ankle) was listed as limited on Thursday's practice estimate, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Analysis: In the second game with QB Jameis Winston under center in place of Jaxson Dart (concussion) this past Sunday at Detroit, Robinson busted out with nine catches (on 14 targets) for 156 yards and one touchdown. Both Robinson and fellow WR Darius Slayton (hamstring) were listed as limited Thursday, while the Giants announced that Dart cleared the protocol for head injuries. Robinson thus will be working with Dart if he's able to attain active status himself for Monday's contest at New England. |

Jameis Winston Jameis Winston Back to backup role
Thu, Nov 27, 2025, 2:14 PM
Winson is positioned to operate as the No. 2 quarterback behind Jaxson Dart, who cleared the concussion protocol Thursday, versus the Patriots on Monday Night Football.
Analysis: Winston kept the Giants competitive in both of his starts while Dart was unavailable, though New York ultimately lost by one score to the Packers in Week 11 and in overtime to the Lions in Week 12. Across those two games, Winston completed 37 of 65 pass attempts for 567 yards, two touchdowns and two interceptions. He also rushed seven times for 23 yards and another score. While Winston will now revert to the bench, bumping Russell Wilson down to the No. 3 role, he remains a high-upside backup stash in fantasy formats that allow multiple starting quarterbacks. |

Jaxson Dart Jaxson Dart Clears concussion protocol
Thu, Nov 27, 2025, 2:06 PM
Dart was listed as full on Thursday's estimated practice report, and the Giants announced that the rookie quarterback officially cleared the concussion protocol, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: When interim head coach Mike Kafka spoke to the media Wednesday, he told Evan Barnes of Newsday that Dart remained in the protocol for head injuries, but as of the Giants posting their first Week 13 injury report, he's now received clearance for his first game action since Week 10. Dart thus is poised to resume directing the offense Monday at New England, while Jameis Winston will return to a backup role. |

Jaxson Dart Jaxson Dart Full practice, still in protocol
Wed, Nov 26, 2025, 11:41 AM
Giants interim coach Mike Kafka said Dart will practice in full Wednesday but is still officially in the NFL's concussion protocol, Evan Barnes of Newsday reports.
Analysis: Dart has missed two consecutive games while progressing through the concussion protocol, and though beginning his preparation for Week 13 as a full participant is a good sign that he'll gain clearance in time to play Monday versus the Patriots, Kafka declined Wednesday to commit to the rookie signal-caller's availability, per Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News. Top backup Jameis Winston and Dart will split first-team reps at practice Wednesday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports. Dart will need to gain full clearance from the concussion protocol, including from an independent neurologist, in order to be eligible to play Monday. |

Daniel Bellinger Daniel Bellinger Catchless again Week 12
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 2:01 PM
Bellinger did not catch either of his two targets in Sunday's loss to the Lions.
Analysis: Bellinger saw a relatively large 62 percent offensive snap share, but he finished without a reception for the second straight week. Meanwhile, top TE Theo Johnson finished second on the team with 77 receiving yards on three catches and has now reached the 75-yard mark in two of his past three games. With Johnson building momentum, it seems likely that Bellinger will continue to have a minimal role in the passing attack moving forward. |

Jalin Hyatt Jalin Hyatt Doesn't see field in Week 12
Mon, Nov 24, 2025, 1:46 PM
Hyatt was active but did not play in Sunday's loss to Detroit.
Analysis: In Mike Kafka's first game as New York's interim head coach last Sunday versus Green Bay, Hyatt logged a season-high 62 percent offensive snap share and caught two of four targets for 18 yards. However, that increased usage didn't carry over into Week 12, as Hyatt didn't log a single snap in any capacity. Meanwhile, recent 53-man roster signee Isaiah Hodgins posted a 66 percent offensive snap share, while top WRs Wan'Dale Robinson (83 percent) and Darius Slayton (63 percent) played their usual roles. Perhaps most tellingly for Hyatt's status in the pecking order, special-teams specialist Gunner Olszewski was given eight snaps on offense and rookie undrafted free agent Dalen Cambre got one, suggesting that New York may have decided to phase Hyatt out of the offense altogether moving forward. |

Isaiah Hodgins Isaiah Hodgins Secures TD in loss to Detroit
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 7:23 PM
Hodgins caught two of six targets for 42 yards and one touchdown in the Giants' 34-27 overtime loss to the Lions on Sunday.
Analysis: Hodgins' six targets were a distant second on the team behind Wan'Dale Robinson's 14 looks from Jameis Winston. Hodgins, however, did find the end zone from 12 yards out in the second quarter to give the Giants a 17-7 lead. Hodgins has drawn six targets in back-to-back games since signing with the team off the Steelers' practice squad. He appears to be locked into three-wide sets alongside Robinson and Darius Slayton, as the Giants seem to again be moving away from Jalin Hyatt. |

Darius Slayton Darius Slayton One catch in return
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 4:49 PM
Slayton caught one of two targets for 23 yards in Sunday's 34-27 overtime loss to the Lions.
Analysis: Slayton announced his return from a one-game absence due to a hamstring injury with a 23-yard catch on the game's first play, but he didn't catch his only other target the rest of the way. Jameis Winston threw for 366 yards, but Wan'Dale Robinson was Winston's go-to receiver, as Robinson caught nine of 14 targets for 156 yards and a touchdown. Slayton has yet to score a touchdown heading into a Week 13 road game against the Patriots, and he has topped 60 receiving yards only three times, though two of those three games came in Slayton's last two outings prior to his hamstring injury. |

Theo Johnson Theo Johnson Career-high 77 yards in OT loss
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 4:48 PM
Johnson caught three of five targets for 77 yards in Sunday's 34-27 overtime loss to the Lions.
Analysis: Just over half of Johnson's yards came on a 39-yard catch in the fourth quarter. The 2024 fourth-round pick established a new single-game career high for receiving yards, topping his Week 10 total of 75 against the Bears by two yards. Johnson has emerged as a consistent receiving option heading into a Week 13 trip to New England, regardless of whether the Giants start Jameis Winston for a third consecutive game or get rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart (concussion) back. |

Devin Singletary Devin Singletary Outplayed by Tracy in Week 12
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 4:47 PM
Singletary rushed 14 times for 47 yards and wasn't targeted in Sunday's 34-27 overtime loss to the Lions.
Analysis: Singletary had 14 touches to Tyrone Tracy's 23. Tracy churned out 130 scrimmage yards and has pulled away from Singletary as the busier and more effective part of the Giants' running back platoon. It won't show up on the stat sheet, but Singletary also touched the ball on Wan'Dale Robinson's 39-yard touchdown catch on the opening drive, tossing the ball back to Jameis Winston on a flea flicker. Whether the Giants get Jaxson Dart (concussion) back or give Winston a third straight start under center in Week 13 against the Patriots, Singletary's likely to continue working as a complementary option alongside Tracy. |
|
Tyrone Tracy Tyrone Tracy Second straight game with 130 yards
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 4:04 PM
Tracy rushed 20 times for 62 yards and caught three of four targets for 68 yards in Sunday's 34-27 overtime loss to the Lions.
Analysis: Tracy had six more rushing attempts than Devin Singletary, and Singletary wasn't targeted while Tracy contributed catches of 42, 20 and six yards. The Giants will likely continue to mix both running backs in against the stout New England run defense in Week 13, but Tracy has established himself as the 1A backfield option with 269 scrimmage yards over the past two games. Tracy still has only one touchdown this season. |

Jameis Winston Jameis Winston Two TD passes, TD catch in OT loss
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 4:01 PM
Winston completed 18 of 36 passes for 366 yards, two touchdowns and an interception in Sunday's 34-27 overtime loss to the Lions. He added four rushing attempts for 13 yards and had a 33-yard touchdown reception.
Analysis: Winston capped the opening drive with a 39-yard touchdown pass to Wan'Dale Robinson on a flea flicker and led the Giants to their first 10-point lead after the first quarter since Week 9 of 2020. Winston restored the 10-point lead by making it 17-7 with a 12-yard touchdown pass to Isaiah Hodgins in the second quarter. The Giants' offense cooled off in the second half until Winston broke out of a tackle attempt to score a 33-yard receiving touchdown thrown by Gunner Olszewski on a trick play with 12:16 remaining in the fourth quarter. Winston was picked off on the following possession as the Lions scored the game's final 17 points to stymie the Giants' upset bid. Despite providing a spark with his athleticism and aggressive approach, Winston has lost both of his starts, so he'll likely cede the Week 13 starting role to Jaxson Dart (concussion) if Dart clears concussion protocol in time to face the Patriots on Monday Night Football. |

Wan'Dale Robinson Wan'Dale Robinson Racks up 156 yards in Week 12
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 3:44 PM
Robinson caught nine of 14 targets for 156 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-27 overtime loss to the Lions. He also rushed once for no gain.
Analysis: Robinson got behind the defense for a 39-yard touchdown catch on a flea flicker to cap the opening drive. That score was part of a sensational first quarter that also included a 40-yard reception and the NFL's version of an NBA and-one, on which Robinson held on for a 15-yard catch that also drew an unnecessary roughness penalty on Brian Branch. Robinson caught all four of his first-quarter targets for 106 yards and a touchdown, then tacked on five catches for 50 yards on 10 targets the rest of the way. He has drawn 45 targets over the past four games, so Robinson should continue to see plenty of volume against the Patriots in Week 13, regardless of whether Winston or Jaxson Dart (concussion) starts under center for the Giants. |

Eric Gray Eric Gray Will play Week 12
Sun, Nov 23, 2025, 11:20 AM
Gray (knee) is active for Sunday's game against the Lions, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Analysis: Gray was activated off the Giants' reserve/PUP list Saturday, and the third-year running back has been cleared to make his 2025 regular-season debut Sunday. He will serve as the team's RB3 behind Tyrone Tracy and Devin Singletary. |

Thomas Fidone Thomas Fidone Moved to IR
Sat, Nov 22, 2025, 6:05 PM
Fidone (foot) has been placed on injured reserve Saturday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official sitereports.
Analysis: Fidone was ruled out for Week 12 Friday due to what appears to be a nagging foot injury he's dealt with all season. The 23-year-old, who primarily contributes on special teams, will now be out for at least the next four games. |
|
Eric Gray Eric Gray Activated off IR
Sat, Nov 22, 2025, 5:57 PM
The Giants have activated Gray (knee) from injured reserve Saturday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Analysis: Gray was able to practice in full all week. This activation was the last step in the 26-year-old's ability to suit up for the Giants' Week 12 matchup versus the Lions. The third-year pro will likely split running back duties with both Devin Singletary and Tyrone Tracy. |
