Darren Waller informs Giants he plans to retire

The New York Giants have been informed by veteran TE Darren Waller that he intends to retire ahead of the 2024 season.

Fantasy Impact

He let the organization know ahead of team minicamp and will walk away at the age of 31. He has career numbers of 350 catches, 4,124 yards and 20 TDs, including one Pro Bowl with the Las Vegas Raiders. He played eight seasons with the Raiders, Giants and Baltimore Ravens.

Darren Waller still mulling over retirement

New York Giants TE Darren Waller has not yet come to a decision in regards to his potential retirement this offseason, according to the Athletic. The 8-year veteran has dealt with a number of injuries that have caused him to miss a total of 19 games over the past 3 seasons. Waller also stated that he hopes to make a decision prior to the start of the NFL draft on April 25th.

Fantasy Impact

Waller's potential departure would result in an increased target share for the other pass-catching options on this roster, most notably Jalin Hyatt and Wan'Dale Robinson. Both of these players have shown flashes throughout their young careers. With more targets being thrown their way, Hyatt and/or Robinson may become very productive for fantasy if Waller decides to hang up the cleats. On the other hand, the move would negatively impact Daniel jones' fantasy outlook. This is a team that is bereft of offensive weapons and Jones can ill-afford to lose his most reliable pass-catching option.
