Malik Nabers Calls Out Fox Broadcast After Sunday's Victory

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers was unhappy with the media following Sunday's Week 9 win over the Philadelphia Eagles. Nabers went to social media to call out FOX and Greg Olsen for criticizing his body language and demeanor during Sunday's game. The star wideout called out the broadcast for trying to create a negative narrative and making him look like a bad teammate. Clearly, the camera caught Nabers at a bad time, and the broadcast ran with it. Nabers was fairly quiet on Sunday, hauling in five of his eight targets for 43 yards in the win. He'll hope for better days ahead against the Washington Commanders in Week 10.

J.J. McCarthy Returns Against Eagles After Hip Injury

New York Giants quarterback J.J. McCarthy (hip) returned to Sunday's Week 9 game against the Philadelphia Eagles on the final play of the third quarter. McCarthy had been listed as questionable after taking a hit from Eagles linebacker Zack Baun on a designed run earlier in the quarter. Before leaving, McCarthy completed nine of 13 passes for 101 yards and ran three times for 11 yards. Jameis Winston led a 14-play, 76-yard drive in McCarthy's absence and threw a five-yard touchdown pass to Isaiah Likely to put the Giants ahead.

J.J. McCarthy Questionable to Return Against Eagles

New York Giants quarterback J.J. McCarthy (hip) is questionable to return to Sunday's Week 9 game against the Philadelphia Eagles, according to Jordan Raanan. McCarthy took a hit from Eagles linebacker Zack Baun on a designed run early in the third quarter. He tried to throw on the sideline and fell to the ground before being evaluated in the medical tent and heading to the locker room. Jameis Winston took over for New York. Before exiting, McCarthy completed nine of 13 passes for 101 yards and added 11 yards on three carries.

Cam Skattebo Hopeful to Play Next Thursday in Week 10

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo (hamstring) is inactive for Sunday's Week 9 game against the Philadelphia Eagles. Pat Leonard said he thinks Skattebo has a chance to return when the Giants host the Washington Commanders on Thursday night. Skattebo missed practice Wednesday and Thursday, then returned in a limited capacity Friday and was listed as doubtful. He rushed for a career-high 124 yards and a touchdown on 17 carries in his last game, the Week 7 win at Houston. With Tyrone Tracy Jr. on injured reserve, Devin Singletary is in line to lead the backfield against Philadelphia. Singletary ran for 41 yards on five carries against Houston, including the 30-yard touchdown that won the game in overtime. Gregory Desrosiers and Phil Mafah are also available, with Mafah elevated from the practice squad Saturday.

Cam Skattebo Inactive Vs. Eagles

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo (hamstring) is officially inactive for the Week 9 game against the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. Skattebo did not practice on Wednesday or Thursday, but he returned to a limited session on Friday before the Giants labeled him as doubtful to play this weekend. He was reportedly pushing to play on Saturday, but Skattebo just did not do enough during the week to convince the coaching staff that he was ready to play in Philly. It is extremely disappointing for his fantasy managers after he had the bye in Week 8 to heal from a hamstring injury that he suffered in overtime against the Houston Texans in Week 7. It remains to be seen if Skattebo will be ready to go on a quick turnaround next Thursday night to kick off Week 10 action against the division-rival Washington Commanders. With Skattebo sidelined this Sunday, Devin Singletary should see the lion's share of backfield work, making him a plug-and-play RB3/flex for fantasy managers who scooped him up off the waiver wire.

Cam Skattebo "Unlikely" to Play in Week 9 Against Eagles

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo (hamstring) is "unlikely" to play in Sunday's Week 9 contest against the Philadelphia Eagles, according to Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com. This report aligns with the official injury designation from the Giants, who listed Skattebo as doubtful. The 24-year-old will be inactive for the first time this season, and New York finally finds itself short-handed at the running back position after releasing Najee Harris and placing Tyrone Tracy Jr. (hamstring) on IR. Raanan reports that Devin Singletary will play the bulk of the offensive snaps for New York, and he'll occasionally be spelled by Phil Mafah. Meanwhile, Greg Desrosiers will round out the running back depth chart, presumably playing on special teams. Singletary is worth deploying as a mid-to-low RB2 in fantasy football this week.

Devin Singletary an Intriguing Week 9 Streamer with Potential for Stable Role

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary has emerged as an intriguing streaming option for Week 9 against the Philadelphia Eagles, and he has the potential to carve out standalone value over the rest of the season. The Giants recently released Najee Harris and lost Tyrone Tracy Jr. (hamstring) to injured reserve, leaving Singletary in the No. 2 running back role. Now, Cam Skattebo (hamstring) is doubtful for Week 9, putting Singletary in line to earn the start. He could feast in a high-volume role against a banged-up Eagles squad, so there's a realistic opportunity for him to finish this week as an RB2 in fantasy football. However, his upside spans beyond this week. The Giants have reportedly been exploring the trade market for a running back, but if they don't bolster their backfield ahead of the trade deadline, Singletary would be solidified as the No. 2 ball-carrier for the rest of the season. Skattebo has yet to prove he can be an every-down back, so there's an opportunity for Singletary to carve out standalone value as a low-end RB3/flex week after week. The 29-year-old should be a priority addition for fantasy managers; not only should he earn the start this week, but he could be a solid lineup option in 12+ team leagues for the rest of the season.

Dominic Zvada Hoping to Bounce Back Against Eagles

New York Giants rookie kicker Dominic Zvada hopes to bounce back after a tough three-game stretch before the bye week. In his first seven games, Zvada has made 13 of 18 field goals and all 12 extra points. His inaccuracy was a major factor in Weeks 5 and 7, when he missed five field goals. Head coach John Harbaugh remains confident in the rookie and has kept him as the starter heading into Week 9. Harbaugh said on Wednesday, "We're not worried about him. Now, we'll be disappointed if he misses a kick or two. We'll be really happy if he makes them." He faces the Philadelphia Eagles, who have allowed the seventh-most fantasy points to kickers this season. Their defensive struggles have been evident, but Zvada's inaccuracy over the course of the season makes him a risky option in Week 9.

Isaiah Likely Looks to Keep Breakout Season Going Against Eagles

New York Giants tight end Isaiah Likely has had a career season through seven games and looks to carry that momentum into the post-bye week. In seven games, Likely has hauled in 41 of 63 targets for 395 yards and five touchdowns, averaging 12.9 half-PPR fantasy points per game. After signing with the New York Giants this offseason, many expected Likely to prosper in his full-time role, but few anticipated this breakout. The former Raven ranks third in receptions per game (5.86), sixth in yards (56.4), second in touchdowns (5), and third in fantasy points per game among tight ends. Now he faces the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 9, who have allowed the third-fewest fantasy points per game to tight ends this season. While the Eagles have had success against tight ends, they haven't faced a top player at the position like Likely yet. Fire up the Giants playmaker as a top-end TE in Week 9.

Malachi Fields Not a Starting Option Despite Easy Matchup in Week 9

New York Giants wide receiver Malachi Fields enters the second half of his rookie season as a full-time starter. In seven games, Fields has caught 16 of 30 targets for 248 yards and a touchdown, averaging just 5.5 half-PPR fantasy points per game. The 2026 third-round pick had the best game of his career in Week 7, totaling four receptions for 83 yards in his first game with new starting quarterback J.J. McCarthy. The receiving corps is crowded, with star receiver Malik Nabers and tight end Isaiah Likely, who has been among the NFL's top tight ends this season. While he faces a Philadelphia Eagles defense that has allowed the most fantasy points to wide receivers this season, Fields shouldn't be in starting lineups this week.

Malik Nabers Off Injury Report, Primed for Monster Week Against Eagles

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers (knee) is off the injury report and slated to play in Week 9 against the Philadelphia Eagles. Nabers did not practice Thursday due to a knee issue but returned Friday and will play Sunday. The third-year receiver has been among the NFL's best wide receivers this season, despite being less than a year removed from ACL surgery after tearing it in 2025. In his last four games, Nabers has hauled in 36 of 51 targets for 509 yards and two touchdowns, averaging 20.2 half-PPR fantasy points per game. His hot streak is likely to continue in Week 9, as he faces a Philadelphia secondary that has allowed the most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Despite being listed on the injury report, Nabers is set for an explosion this week and should be a high-end WR1 in all formats.

Devin Singletary Set for Heavy Workload Against Eagles

New York Giants running back Devin Singletary is set for a heavy workload in Week 9 against the Philadelphia Eagles. In four games, Singletary has just 18 carries for 80 yards and a touchdown, along with eight receptions for 55 yards and a touchdown. While his numbers are lackluster, with Cam Skattebo (hamstring) doubtful and Tyrone Tracy Jr. (hamstring) on injured reserve, Singletary is set to take on the bulk of the workload in Week 9. He faces an Eagles defense that has allowed the second-most rushing yards to running backs this season. The Giants are also three-point favorites, and with the Eagles' offense dealing with several injuries, they could lean on their running game if they have a lead. Despite his lack of production this season, fantasy managers can start Singletary as a low-end RB2 or FLEX play in Week 9.

J.J. McCarthy Hoping for More Touchdown Luck Against Eagles

New York Giants quarterback J.J. McCarthy led the team to victory in Week 7 and will look to carry that momentum into Week 9. In five quarters with the Giants, McCarthy has completed 31 of 49 pass attempts for 495 yards, with one touchdown and one interception. In Week 7, McCarthy totaled 252 passing yards but did not throw a touchdown, while running backs Cam Skattebo, Tyrone Tracy Jr., Devin Singletary, and even backup Jameis Winston scored rushing touchdowns. McCarthy will hope for better touchdown luck against the Philadelphia Eagles defense, which has allowed the ninth-most fantasy points to quarterbacks this season. Injuries have plagued the Eagles on both sides of the ball, so the Giants could dominate and rely less on the pass game in Week 9. Fantasy managers should hope the Eagles' new starting quarterback, Joe Milton, can keep up against the Giants, as McCarthy enters as a low-end QB2 this week.

Jaxson Dart Continues to Have Enormous Dynasty Upside

New York Giants quarterback Jaxson Dart (knee) is out for the season after undergoing knee surgery in the aftermath of Week 2. While his 2026 campaign is over, the Giants' progress without him this year is an encouraging sign for his own fantasy football outlook when he returns to action in 2027. The Giants' passing game has held its own with a combination of Jameis Winston and J.J. McCarthy at quarterback, supporting big starts to the year for players like Malik Nabers (48 catches, 605 yards, two touchdowns) and Isaiah Likely (41 catches, 395 yards, five touchdowns). If two backup quarterbacks can support that level of fantasy productivity from their pass-catchers, then Dart should have no trouble racking up completions, passing yards, and touchdowns when he returns. In other words, the passing offense has plenty of weapons that can help him produce as a strong QB1 option. Of course, Dart also comes with his own rushing upside, as he had posted 54 rushing yards on 11 attempts back in Week 1. New York may ask him to run a little less to keep him healthy going forward, but his mobility still suits him incredibly well in fantasy football. He continues to have top-eight appeal at the quarterback position in dynasty fantasy football leagues, even if we won't see him take another snap in 2026.

Cam Skattebo Doubtful for Week 9

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo (hamstring) is officially listed as doubtful to play on Sunday in the Week 9 divisional game against the Philadelphia Eagles, according to Dan Salomone of the team's official website. Skattebo returned to a limited practice on Friday after missing Wednesday and Thursday due to a hamstring injury that he suffered in overtime in Week 7 against the Houston Texans. It is quite disappointing for fantasy managers after the 24-year-old had last week's bye to recover, but he still is not ready and will hand over lead-back duties in the backfield to Devin Singletary. Singletary will become a plug-and-play RB2 this weekend against a banged-up Eagles defense, with Greg Desrosiers and either Eric Gray or Phil Mafah backing him up. The Giants have a quick turnaround in Week 10 with another divisional tilt upcoming against the Washington Commanders next Thursday night. With the quick turnaround, Skattebo may not be a lock to return to his RB1 role for the G-Men.

Malik Nabers Will Be a "Full-Go" on Sunday

New York Giants head coach John Harbaugh said that wide receiver Malik Nabers (knee) got in a full practice on Friday and will be a "full-go" for the team's Week 9 matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday, per Matt Citak of Giants.com. Nabers missed practice on Thursday due to a knee issue, a notable development given that the star wideout missed nearly all of the 2025 season after suffering a serious knee injury in Week 4. However, it appears the 23-year-old may have just been getting a rest/maintenance day on Thursday. Nabers has been highly productive in 2026, recording 48 catches for 605 yards and two touchdowns on 70 targets across seven games. Now that he will officially be active in Week 9, he profiles as a must-start wide receiver for fantasy managers.

Cam Skattebo Misses Practice Friday, Status for Sunday Remains Unclear

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo (hamstring) did not practice Friday, marking the third straight day he was unable to participate. However, head coach John Harbaugh noted that he was not ready to rule him out ahead of their Sunday contest against the Eagles. Managers should continue to monitor his status ahead of the final injury report, but the Giants appear to be leaving the door open for their top running back if he progresses enough. Prior to their Week 8 bye, Skattebo enjoyed a strong showing in Houston, rushing for a season-best 124 yards and a touchdown on 17 carries. If Skattebo cannot play, veteran running back Devin Singletary would see a massive workload and carry borderline RB2 upside.

Cam Skattebo Seen With Jersey but Not Practicing on Friday

New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo (hamstring) was seen with a jersey on during the portion of practice open to the media on Friday, but he was not participating, according to The North Jersey Bergen Record's Art Stapelton. Skattebo suffered a hamstring injury in overtime in the Week 7 game against the Houston Texans, and despite having last week's bye to rest, he has yet to practice with the team this week and is trending towards missing the Week 9 divisional clash against the Philadelphia Eagles. If the second-year RB officially misses practice on Friday, he will most likely be ruled out for the weekend, which will set up Devin Singelton for a high-volume role as the Giants' primary RB against the Eagles. Remember, Tyrone Tracy Jr. is on Injured Reserve, and Najee Harris is no longer on the roster. Fantasy managers who have been using Skattebo in their starting lineups this year need to go in another direction in Week 9. If Skattebo is out in Week 9, his next chance to return will be next Thursday in another divisional game against the Washington Commanders.

Malik Nabers Participating in Giants Practice on Friday

New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers (knee) is participating in the team's practice on Friday during the media-viewing portion, according to Art Stapleton of The North Jersey Bergen Record. Nabers officially went down as a non-participant in Thursday's practice, but he told the media that he will "be good" for the Week 9 divisional tilt on Sunday against the Philadelphia Eagles. Fantasy managers were likely very concerned when they heard that the 23-year-old missed practice on Thursday with a knee injury after he missed most of last year following a torn ACL that he suffered in Week 4. After returning to practice on Friday, it should settle everyone's nerves regarding Nabers' status for Week 9, although we will keep an eye on the team's final injury report. As long as the former first-rounder from LSU is cleared to play this weekend, he should be considered a must-start in all fantasy football lineups after producing four straight 100-yard games. Nabers has developed a strong rapport with new quarterback J.J. McCarthy as the Giants' top dog at receiver.

Isaiah Likely Looking to Establish Connection with New QB

New York Giants tight end Isaiah Likely is looking to bounce back after a disappointing Week 7 performance. In quarterback J.J. McCarthy's first start with the Giants, Likely caught just two of four targets for 12 yards in the 27-21 overtime win over the Houston Texans. Prior to that outing, Likely had been enjoying a career season, hauling in 39 of 59 targets for 383 yards and five touchdowns through six games. While some worry that Likely had a better connection with backup Jameis Winston than with McCarthy, fantasy managers should expect him to produce in Week 9. However, another poor performance could raise concerns about his fantasy production moving forward.
