New York Giants
Quarterback
Jaxson Dart: SIT, QB2 (Startable in Superflex)
Results may slightly vary depending on how many points your league awards passing touchdowns, but Jaxson Dart has scored 20(ish) points or more in each of his first three games as the Giants’ starting quarterback. He’s been greatly aided by his rushing production, averaging over 50 rush yards per game, and he ran one in for a score in two of three games. Up against the stout Denver defense, Dart is a startable but risky Superflex option. If he’s able to deliver another 20-point performance against the second-toughest fantasy matchup for opposing quarterbacks, he’ll be pushing borderline QB1 status.
Running Back
Cam Skattebo: START, RB2
Tyrone Tracy Jr.: SIT
Devin Singletary: SIT
I’m a bit concerned the Cam Skattebo hype comes crashing down to earth just a bit after facing the Broncos. Denver is one of nine teams allowing fewer than 4 yards per carry, and allowed just two rushing touchdowns on the season. It was encouraging for Skattebo’s season-long prospects that Tyrone Tracy saw just four carries in his return. Skattebo is still a rock-solid RB2 option, but don’t expect a repeat of his Thursday night performance. If by some miracle there is, you can expect more of the following:

Wide Receiver
Wan’Dale Robinson: START, WR2
Jalin Hyatt: SIT
Lil’Jordan Humphrey: SIT
The Jaxson Dart experience has been great for Giants fans, but not so great for Giants wide receivers. Outside of Wan’Dale Robinson, that is. With Malik Nabers out for the season, Robinson has been the top option, seeing 19 targets over Dart’s first three starts. He’s a volume-based WR2 with spike week potential when he’s able to get into the end zone. The Lil’Jordan Humphrey story is a nice one, but he’s best left on the wire. He scored 9.5 fantasy points on eight targets and is a candidate to return to the practice squad once Darius Slayton is healthy.
Tight End
Theo Johnson: SIT
Theo Johnson came crashing back down to earth in Week 6 after catching three touchdowns in Dart’s first two starts. Johnson is a member of what I like to call the “Tight End Glob.” He’ll catch three to five targets for about 30-ish yards, and will finish inside the top 12 if he’s able to get in the end zone. Denver’s allowed one touchdown to tight ends all season, so chances are not great for it to happen this week.
Defense/Special Teams
New York Giants: STREAMER
The Giants’ defense is holding opponents to an average of 18.3 points over their last three games, as well as totaling four turnovers and five sacks over that same period.
Denver Broncos
Quarterback
Bo Nix: START, QB1
Bo Nix gave us another clinic in consistent inconsistency this week. His final stat line tells the story: 19 completions on 30 attempts for a meager 174 yards, one TD, and one interception, adding 24 yards on five carries. That’s his third game under 180 passing yards this season, and his fourth with just one passing touchdown. Nix should have had a second, but overthrew Marvin Mims Jr. for what should have been a sure thing touchdown. He didn’t sink your fantasy team in Week 6, he just delivered the fantasy equivalent of a lukewarm glass of milk. As I said in last week’s start/sit, he’s a start more often than not, but he remains an extremely volatile option. The Giants’ defense has played much better as of late, but is still a better than average matchup.
Running Back
J.K. Dobbins: START, RB1
RJ Harvey: FLEX, RB3
J.K. Dobbins looked meh — disappointing, to be honest. He was supposed to eat against a Jets defense that was a top 10 fantasy matchup coming into the week, but he looked like he was running in quicksand. He ground out 14 carries for just 40 yards. R.J. Harvey continues to get some passing work, catching two passes for 11 yards on only two carries for 4 yards. The ceiling is permanently capped by this committee, but Dobbins remains the lead horse (I’m so sorry). Dobbins’ performance was a clear dud in a prime matchup, but he’s in the perfect get-right spot against the Giants, who allow the 10th-most fantasy points to the position. Even in a good match, Harvey is strictly in handcuff status for now.
Wide Receiver
Courtland Sutton: START, WR1
Marvin Mims Jr.: FLEX, WR5
Troy Franklin: FLEX, WR4
Courtland Sutton had his second fantasy faceplant of the season, catching his only reception with 4:41 left in the first quarter on just three targets. While this game is just a blip on the radar, he’s been a high-end WR2 more often than not and should still be considered one.
Troy Franklin tied for the team lead with seven targets but turned that into only four receptions for 19 yards and lost a fumble! Marvin Mims Jr. should have had a long TD, but got overthrown by Nix. Sutton is the only comfortably startable Broncos wide receiver; no one else is consistent enough to be more than a desperation flex.
Tight End
Evan Engram: START, TE1
Evan Engram was the Broncos’ silver lining against the Jets, securing five catches on seven targets for 42 yards — his third straight game with four more catches. He’s pushing weekly borderline TE1 status.
Defense/Special Teams
Denver Broncos: START
The Broncos lead the NFL in sacks with 30 and allow the second-fewest points per game (15.8).
