Richie James Fantasy

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton (illness) was absent from Friday's practice, while Richie James (knee) was listed as a limited participant. Both wideouts are officially questionable for a Week 13 divisional matchup with the Washington Commanders. Slayton has missed two consecutive practices with an illness, but the team is hopeful that he will be able to suit up on Sunday. Both players have been fantasy-relevant in recent weeks and can be considered as flex options in deeper leagues if active. If either is forced to miss, additional targets could go to Isaiah Hodgins, Kenny Golladay, and Marcus Johnson.

New York Giants wide receiver Richie James (knee) and rookie tight end Daniel Bellinger (eye) were both listed as limited participants in practice on Thursday. The Giants didn't actually practice on Thursday, so the designations were estimations. James picked up a DNP on Wednesday, so he's making progress and should be able to play in Week 13 against the Washington Commanders. James has scored in each of the last two games, but he hasn't gone over five receptions or 59 yards in a single game in 2022, making him a tough-to-trust WR4/flex, even in deep leagues. Bellinger is hoping to return for the first time since fracturing his eye socket in Week 7. There is long-term upside here, but expect him to be eased back into action if he plays against Washington on Sunday.

New York Giants wide receiver Richie James (knee) missed Wednesday's practice, while rookie tight end Daniel Bellinger (eye) returned to a limited session. James will be in danger of missing Week 13 against the Washington Commanders if he can't practice on Thursday or Friday. The 27-year-old has scored his first two touchdowns of the season in the last two games, but he also hasn't seen more than six targets in a game or cleared 60 receiving yards in 2022. If he's out this weekend, Isaiah Hodgins and Kenny Golladay would see more run behind No. 1 wideout Darius Slayton. Bellinger returns to practice for the first time since Week 7 after he had surgery to fix a fractured eye socket. The 22-year-old was becoming a bigger part of the passing game before his injury, but he'll be nothing more than a low-end TE2 streamer in fantasy if he returns to action against Washington.
