New York Giants news, rumors and injuriesMon, 28 Jul 2014 23:05:17 -0700 Updating a previous report, New York Giants OT DeMarcus Love (undisclosed) was placed on no-recall waivers with a waived/injured designation Monday, July 28. Comment () | Share: Giants | Jerrel Jernigan in mix to start Mon, 28 Jul 2014 20:30:10 -0700 New York Giants WR Jerrel Jernigan is expected to compete with rookie WR Odell Beckham Jr. (hamstring) for a starting spot. Fantasy Tip: Jernigan has a chance to get a leg up in the competition with Beckham sidelined for at least another week due to a hamstring injury. Even if Jernigan can win a starting job, he shouldn't be viewed as much more than a WR4 or flex fantasy play in leagues of 12 or more teams. Comment () | Share: Giants | Odell Beckham Jr. out for a week Mon, 28 Jul 2014 20:28:17 -0700 Updating a previous report, New York Giants WR Odell Beckham Jr. (hamstring) is expected to be sidelined at least another week due to his hamstring injury. Beckham was originally injured during organized team activities (OTAs), and then he aggravated the hamstring during the first training camp practice. He hasn't practiced since Tuesday, July 22. Fantasy Tip: Beckham is expected to battle Jerrel Jernigan for a starting job opposite Victor Cruz, but he needs to stay healthy if he is going to compete. If he wins the job, he has some upside as a WR3/4 or flex fantasy option. Comment () | Share: Giants | Mario Manningham still not confident in knee Mon, 28 Jul 2014 19:35:13 -0700 New York Giants WR Mario Manningham (knee) said he is still not 100 percent confident in his surgically repaired knee. "I'm working on it," he said of overcoming that psychological hurdle. "Every day I feel better. (I'm) going out and just trying to get back to where I was." Comment () | Share: Giants | Tests negative for Odell Beckham Jr. Mon, 28 Jul 2014 18:46:55 -0700 New York Giants WR Odell Beckham Jr. (hamstring) had tests on his injured hamstring Monday, July 28, and the results were negative, according to two sources briefed on the injury. Fantasy Tip: Missing practice time isn't going to help Beckham develop any kind of chemistry with Eli Manning, and while that will hurt his fantasy value to start the year, he has too much explosiveness to be rendered irrelevant all season. He is worth grabbing and stashing later in drafts. Comment () | Share: Giants | Xavier Grimble day-to-day Mon, 28 Jul 2014 17:33:39 -0700 New York Giants TE Xavier Grimble (hamstring) is day-to-day with a hamstring injury that isn't considered serious, according to Ebenezer Samuel of the New York Daily News. Comment () | Share: Mon, 28 Jul 2014 14:22:31 -0700 The New York Giants have claimed OG Mark Asper off waivers from the Buffalo Bills. The team also waived OT DeMarcus Love. Comment () | Share: Giants | Xavier Grimble meets with doctor Mon, 28 Jul 2014 14:19:06 -0700 New York Giants TE Xavier Grimble (hamstring) met with a doctor Monday, July 28, to have his injured hamstring examined. Comment () | Share: Giants | Eli Manning hopes to play in preseason game Mon, 28 Jul 2014 13:35:29 -0700 New York Giants QB Eli Manning said he hopes to receive some playing time in the Hall of Fame but will let the coaches determine his status for the game. Comment () | Share: Giants | Odell Beckham Jr. misses practice again Mon, 28 Jul 2014 12:09:40 -0700 New York Giants WR Odell Beckham Jr. (hamstring) missed practice Monday, July 28, to receive treatment for his injured hamstring. Head coach Tom Coughlin said Beckham probably has some tests scheduled for the hamstring. Comment () | Share: Giants | Want high completion percentage from Eli Manning Mon, 28 Jul 2014 10:43:36 -0700 The New York Giants are looking for QB Eli Manning to complete at least 70 percent of his passes this upcoming season, according to quarterbacks coach Danny Langsdorf. "He's well aware of who's done it in the past and what the system can get you in terms of completion," Langsdorf said. "So we're trying to focus on that and really trying to do a good job of taking care of the ball and hitting open receivers." Fantasy Tip: Manning is coming off a difficult 2013 season and has been working on learning the new offense this offseason. Owners should consider Manning as a No. 2 quarterback at this point, because he may have some issues with the offense early on and there are questions with the team's running backs and offensive line. Comment () | Share: Giants | Two players miss practice Sun, 27 Jul 2014 19:05:54 -0700 New York Giants WR Trindon Holliday (leg) and TE Xavier Grimble (hamstring) did not participate in practice Sunday, July 27. Comment () | Share: Giants | Odell Beckham not doing much Sun, 27 Jul 2014 18:53:43 -0700 New York Giants WR Odell Beckham Jr. (hamstring) fielded some punts during practice Sunday, July 27, but did not do any running or participate in any other drills. Fantasy Tip: With Beckham missing multiple practices, his fantasy value is taking a hit since he is not working with the offense. He may have a chance to be a No. 5 wide receiver on some fantasy teams at this point. Comment () | Share: Giants | Ryan Nassib struggling Fri, 25 Jul 2014 16:58:16 -0700 New York Giants QB Ryan Nassib has struggled during the early portion of training camp. He has been missing on passes to wide receivers at times by a significant margin. Comment () | Share: Giants | David Wilson takes a hit Fri, 25 Jul 2014 14:28:17 -0700 New York Giants RB David Wilson (neck) took his first hit of training camp Friday, July 25, without issue. "That felt good," Wilson said. Fantasy Tip: Another big hurdle passed for Wilson, who will now have to contend with a crowded backfield in training camp. Wilson is a risky draft option, and should be considered an RB4. Comment () | Share:  |
