Tyrod Taylor left the game on Sunday after sustaining a hard hit on a 25-yard completion to Daniel Bellinger. Taylor managed to jog off the field but was taken into the locker room on a cart for further evaluation. After the game, HC Brian Daboll indicated that Taylor is expected to be OK.

Fantasy Impact

The Giants signed Taylor to a 2-year, $11M contract to back up incumbent starter Daniel Jones. Taylor has a chance to potentially see playing time throughout the season as Jones has missed eight games in the past two seasons and has generally struggled as a starter. However, Taylor has also dealt with his fair share of injuries and missed six games last season with the Texans.
