Game Info
Kickoff: Monday, December 1, 2025, 8:15 p.m. ET
Location: Gillette Stadium, Foxborough, MA
Network: ESPN
New York Giants
Quarterback
Jaxson Dart: START, QB1
Jameis Winston: : START (in Superflex), Borderline QB1 (If Dart inactive)
Thanks to a little trickeration, famous Jameis Winston accounted for three touchdowns, including his first career receiving score. Jameis caught a Gunner Olszewski pass, stiff-arming the linebacker and spinning out of the tackle to get into the end zone. I wouldn’t believe it if I hadn’t seen it with my own eyes. Winston actually had 20 yards after the catch on the play. Jaxson Dart probably returns this week, and Winston goes back to the bench, but man, it’s been so much fun watching him. Fire up whoever ends up under center for the Giants, Dart in any format, and Winston in Superflex.

Running Back
Tyrone Tracy Jr.: START, RB2
Devin Singletary: SIT
Tyrone Tracy Jr. ran for 62 yards and caught three passes for 68 yards to total over 100 yards in consecutive games for the first time since Weeks 5 and 6 of last season. He once again looked much better than Devin Singletary, and although Tracy didn’t get into the end zone, he finally got a few goal-line carries. He had zero coming into the game, but got two of the three carries inside the 10. Tracy saw all four of the running back targets and shapes up as a solid flex against the Patriots, but just be aware the Giants have a Week 14 bye. After losing the goal-line work, Singletary is no longer startable.
Wide Receiver
Wan’Dale Robinson: START, WR2
Isaiah Hodgins: FLEX, WR4
Darius Slayton: SIT
Wan’Dale Robinson had the best game of his career in the Giants’ overtime loss to the Lions. Robinson had nine catches on 14 targets for 156 yards and also scored a touchdown 2 minutes into the game. Winston tossed the ball to Tracy running right, who lateraled the ball back to Winston, who had to okie doke a defensive lineman to give himself time to launch a bomb to a wide-open Robinson in the end zone.
DOUBLE PASS TD. JAMEIS TO WANDALE.

Wan’Dale was involved all day, but did most of his damage in the first quarter, catching 106 of his 156 yards in the first 10 minutes of the game. Robinson only has two touchdowns on the season, but is averaging nearly nine targets a game. He’s a locked-in every-week starter. If you’re in desperate need of a flex, see if Isiah Hodgins is still available. He’s scored 10 or more points in both his games since rejoining the Giants in Week 11.
Tight End
Theo Johnson: tHe gLoB
Theo is in the upper echelon of tHe gLoB, but gets a significant boost if Dart is able to return to the lineup.
Defense/Special Teams
New York Giants
New England Patriots
Quarterback
Drake Maye: START, QB1
Lock Drake Maye into your lineup right meow, but did you know that on Thanksgiving Day in 2024, he and then-Patriots teammate Jacoby Brissett volunteered at St. Francis House daytime shelter in New England, serving meals to over 350 guests alongside the Boston mayor?
Running Back
TreVeyon Henderson: START, RB1
Rhamondre Stevenson: SIT
Terrell Jennings: SIT
The good news? TreVeyon Henderson more than doubled Rhamondre Stevenson‘s snap percentage, carries, routes, and has twice as many targets, totaling 81 yards to Stevenson’s 10. AND Henderson got the first two snaps at the goal line. The bad news? After getting tackled at the 1, the Patriots then tried and failed a tush push and would settle for a field goal. The next three goal-line carries? One went to Terell Jennings, then the next two went to Stevenson. All three got stuffed. No matter how phenomenal Henderson has looked, coach Mike Vrable is dead set on getting the other backs involved, especially around the end zone. Hendo did end up with five goal-line carries, with the other two combining for six. Stevenson was in for seven of eight third-down snaps, but Henderson handled 37 of a possible 48 early downs, and his usage with the return of Stevenson was very encouraging for the rest of his season outlook. WHEELS UP for Hendo against a Giants defense allowing the second-most points to the position, BAY-BAY!
Wide Receiver
Stefon Diggs: START, WR1
Kayshon Boutte: FLEX, WR4
Mack Hollins: FLEX, WR4
Kyle Williams: FLEX, WR4
DeMario Douglas: FLEX, WR4
Stefon Diggs played 48% of snaps in Week 12 and finished with a season low four points, but has proven to be the most consistent Patriots pass catcher overall, scoring 10 or more points in seven of his last nine games, maintaining a moderately high ceiling. As for the rest of New England’s receivers, you’re basically picking a name out of a hat and hoping he’s the guy to go off that week. Kayshon Boutte returned and muddied up the target share for Mack Hollins, DeMario Douglas, and rookie Kyle Williams. Diggs is a must-start, but the others are lottery ticket FLEX plays in a fantastic matchup.
(Note: Yes, I did copy and paste most of last week’s blurb. But that’s because it fits.)
Tight End
Hunter Henry: SIT
As all tight ends do, Hunter Henry blew up against the Bengals to the tune of seven catches, 115 yards, and one touchdown. The Giants’ defense has actually been quite a difficult matchup for the tight end position, allowing the 10th-fewest points to the position and holding all tight ends faced under 60 receiving yards since Week 6.
Defense/Special Teams
New England Patriots: START
The Patriots have held five of their last seven opponents under 20 points.
