Fantasy Impact: Tracy was able to return to practice on Thursday and put up a limited session after being sidelined on Wednesday. He seems likely to play in Week 4 but will likely not see much work on offense even if active against the Cardinals.

Fantasy Impact: Banks was limited at Thursday's practice again. It looks like he will have a good chance to make his return to the lineup in Week 4, but we won't know until sometime in the coming days.

Fantasy Impact: The veteran was not able to practice for the Giants on Thursday. He's dealing with a groin issue of some kind right now, but he was able to play through it last week and is likely to do the same again this week. New York will have a much easier time against the Cardinals this week if he's fully healthy and on the field for the entire game in Week 4.

Fantasy Impact: McCarthy's tenure in Minnesota was a rocky one, with injuries and underperformance plaguing the start of his career. However, he may find more opportunity in New York due to the absence of Jaxson Dart and the team's interest in possibly giving McCarthy a shot at the starting job; otherwise, he will serve as Jameis Winston's backup. He can stay on the fantasy waiver wire unless he lands the starting job.

The Giants' D/ST logged one interception and one fumble recovery while allowing seven points in Sunday's win over the Tennessee Titans.

Fantasy Impact: New York's defense held the Titans to just seven points on Sunday, which ultimately led to the Giants escaping with a win despite scoring just 12 points themselves. This unit lost Brian Burns (knee) in the process, however, as he is likely to miss the rest of the season with what is suspected to be a torn ACL. His absence will significantly hurt their defensive front and pass rush moving forward.

Dominic Zvada made all four of his field-goal attempts in Sunday's 12-7 win over the Tennessee Titans.

Fantasy Impact: Zvada was one of the lone bright spots for New York on Sunday, making all four of his kicks and accounting for all of New York's points en route to a narrow win over the Titans. He isn't expected to be a good fantasy option at the kicker position moving forward, however.

Najee Harris rushed the ball nine times for 52 yards in Sunday's 12-7 win over the Tennessee Titans.

Fantasy Impact: The Giants were able to get Harris going on Sunday. He totaled 52 yards on just nine carries, which left him with an efficient clip of 5.8 yards per carry. He's still behind Cam Skattebo on this offense and isn't likely to be fantasy relevant moving forward, but he could eat more and more into the workload in this backfield if he continues to play well.

Darnell Mooney caught 2-of-3 targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 12-7 win over the Tennessee Titans.

Fantasy Impact: New York's offense failed to score even a single touchdown on Sunday, so it's no surprise that Mooney individually didn't have a good showing either. He caught just two passes for 20 yards, and fantasy managers shouldn't expect him to return to relevance for however long QB Jameis Winston is starting for the Giants.

Malachi Fields caught two passes for 19 yards in Sunday's 12-7 win over the Tennessee Titans.

Fantasy Impact: The rookie only caught two passes on Sunday, but considering the very low offensive output of New York's offense as a whole, it doesn't come as much of a surprise. He has flashed some talent over the first few weeks of the season, but his poor situation renders him an irrelevant fantasy option moving forward.

Isaiah Likely quiet in win Sunday

Mon, Sep 28th 11:34am EDT
By Leo Sells

Isaiah Likely caught 2-of-5 targets for just 13 yards in Sunday's 12-7 win over the Tennessee Titans.

Fantasy Impact: The veteran wasn't able to get much going on Sunday, finishing with just 13 yards in the team's narrow win over the Titans. He isn't likely to return to fantasy relevance for however long QB Jameis Winston is starting for New York, however, so fantasy managers shouldn't have any hesitations to drop him at this point.

Malik Nabers hauled in 5-of-6 targets for just 26 yards in Sunday's 12-7 win over the Tennessee Titans.

Fantasy Impact: Nabers led the team with six targets on Sunday, but he was only able to turn that into five catches for a measly 26 yards over the course of the afternoon. He's a very talented player, but it looks like his fantasy output is going to be sparse for the foreseeable future with QB Jameis Winston currently at the helm for the Giants.

Cam Skattebo rushed the ball 20 times for 60 yards and caught 3-of-4 targets for 40 yards in Sunday's 12-7 win over the Tennessee Titans.

Fantasy Impact: On Sunday, Skattebo was practically New York's entire offense. He was the team's leader in rushing and receiving yards, and he nearly doubled the yards of the next closest skill-position player. His workload is elite at this point, but he isn't likely to be a strong fantasy option moving forward given how weak this New York offense is looking without QB Jaxson Dart (knee).

Giants RB Devin Singletary is officially inactive for a Week 3 matchup with the Titans.

Fantasy Impact: Singletary is a healthy inactive for the Giants after averaging just 2.8 yards per carry in the first two games. Najee Harris will serve as the primary backup to Cam Skattebo.

Fantasy Impact: Dart had been getting multiple opinions on his ACL injury. Examination shows that the ligament is intact, but Dart will still require surgery that will end his second-season. Jameis Winston will take over as QB1 for the Giants.
