New York Giants
DST - New York Giants
Availability
The Giants defense allowed just 17 points on 286 yards of offense, forcing two turnovers in Sunday's win over the Cowboys.
Fantasy Impact
Certainly benefiting from the Cowboys' main offensive contributors playing limited snaps Sunday, the Giants defense mostly controlled the Cowboys offense in Sunday's victory. The Giants defense has ranked among the bottom third of the league in yards and points allowed most of the season, so the team will certainly be looking to build on that side of the ball this offseason.
The Giants D/ST allowed 10 points on 231 total yards with two interceptions and three sacks on Sunday against the Raiders.
Fantasy Impact
The Giants did what most defenses have done all season against Geno Smith and the Raiders offense. They will face the Cowboys to close the season in Week 18.
The New York Giants D/ST held the Vikings to just 240 yards, recorded four sacks, forced two turnovers and had a fumble return for a score. It wasn't enough, however, as New York suffered a 16-13 loss - its ninth straight setback.
Fantasy Impact
The Giants' defense did their part on Sunday as they tried to snap their lengthy losing skid. But, New York's offense could not score an offensive touchdown and the streak reached nine consecutive losses. The Giants' only touchdown came on defense as Brian Burns strip sacked J.J. McCarthy late in the first half. Tyler Nubin picked up the loose ball and took it to paydirt from 27 yards out. The Giants visit the Raiders on Sunday in a game that could determine the top pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.
The Giants D/ST allowed 29 points on 340 total yards with two sacks and two fumble recoveries on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
The Commanders had one big play on the Giants with a 51-yard touchdown pass from Marcus Mariota to Terry McLaurin. The Giants D/ST remains off the fantasy radar.
The Giants' D/ST logged three sacks and allowed 33 points in Monday night's loss to the New England Patriots.
Fantasy Impact
New York struggled as a team on Monday, particularly their defense and special teams. They allowed 33 points over the course of the game, which obviously led to a loss for the Giants on the road. This unit should not be started in any matchups moving forward.
