Cam Skattebo returned to 11-on-11 reps at minicamp for the first time since a Week 8 ankle fracture ended his stellar rookie season. Before going down, he delivered an elite 3.84 Yards Created Per Touch and a +10.6 Production Premium, making it clear he belongs in this league.
With zero running backs drafted by New York to challenge him, Skattebo is poised to reclaim lead back duties and build on his 16.0 Fantasy Points Per Game from a year ago. He is a smash in all formats as the Giants will be run-first until Malik Nabers is fully recovered.
Running back Devin Singletary was the only New York Giants ...
If he's healthy, New York Giants running back Devin ...
New York Giants running back Devin Singletary could produce...
Nice try. Cam Skattebo is battling the mental hurdle of trusting his surgically repaired ankle, opening a window of opportunity for Tyrone Tracy to seize the primary role in John Harbaugh’s new-look, ground-and-pound Giants attack.
Skattebo posted solid efficiency metrics during his rookie campaign, and the Giants did not select a running back in the NFL Draft. Expect New York to bring their star sophomore RB along slowly this summer. Tracy is in-line to command high-value touches early on, leaving Devin Singletary as a mere rotational placeholder. With both Malik Nabers and Skattebo recovering from devastating lower body injuries, it is safe to fade the Giants offense in 2026, and then buy the dip on Nabers and Skattebo in fantasy football dynasty leagues.
The New York Giants couldn’t get much going on offense but running back Devin Singletary cleared over 100 scrimmage yards and punched in a score. Singletary ran efficiently, average 5.7 yards on 12 carries while adding 34 receiving yards.
Jaxson Dart returned from a concussion but struggled to get much going through the air, throwing for just 139 yards and one score. Darius Slayton was the Giants top receiver, catching just two passes but they went for 42 yards and a touchdown. Wan’Dale Robinson caught seven balls but only gained 34 yards.
Dart is going to have the normal rookie struggles but has already shown his ceiling this season, Robinson has emerged as a PPR maven, Slayton is the same boom or bust wide receiver he’s always been and this backfield looks like it’s going to be an even split between Singletary and Tyrone Tracy.

On Wednesday and Thursday, Kaleb Johnson had visits with the New York Giants and Cincinnati, respectively, in preparation for the 2025 NFL Draft. The Big Ten Running Back of the Year and consensus All-American will assuredly have more “top-30” visits in the coming week.
The Giants have made it no secret that they are entertaining the idea of a big-ticket running back during the draft as a possible upgrade from starter Tyrone Tracy and Devin Singletary. New York won’t likely spend their No. 3 overall pick on a running back, but they do pick again at No.34. Projected as an early Day 2 pick, he should still be on the board when the Giants select second in Round 2.
Cincinnati has rapidly become a wildcard in the draft by way of dipping their toes in the pool with visits from TreVeyon Henderson and Quinshon Judkins (OSU) in addition to welcoming in Johnson on Thursday. The Bengals own the 49th overall pick (coming in Round 2) and Johnson will likely be off the board, barring a trade-up scenario for Cincinnati.
Johnson rushed for 1,537 yards and 21 touchdowns at Iowa in 2024 alone and has rapidly become a hot name to watch in an already talented draft class. He’s hoping to take his electric running style and stellar pass protection to a starting role in the league.

The Giants need a quarterback and are in pole position for the No. 1 pick in the 2025 NFL Draft. They face a Falcons defense that gives up the fourth-most fantasy points to opposing wide receivers. Malik Nabers is the only pass catcher fantasy mangers will be considering playing in the fantasy playoffs. He holds a 40.2-percent Target Share over the last three games. He’s hard to bench with that kind of volume, especially in PPR leagues. The drawback is the Giants are expected to start Drew Lock, but Lock targeted Nabers 13 and 10 times, respectively, in his two starts (Weeks 13 and 14). If the rookie receiver can somehow manage a touchdown in the Giants’ offense, he is a smash start.
Tyrone Tracy has gotten volume that matters – 52 looks in the last three – but he is also a touchdown-dependent play. The Falcons are the 10th-toughest matchup for opposing running backs and Tracy is dealing with an ankle injury that may hold him out of Sunday’s game. If the rookie RB can’t go, Devin Singletary would be in line for increased usage, but is not a week-winning play in the fantasy playoffs.

The Giants were trounced by the Ravens 35-14 Sunday. Malik Nabers was the lone standout for the G-men, earning 14 targets and catching 10 for 82 yards and a touchdown. With a 6.2 ADOT in this one and Tommy DeVito/Tim Boyle throwing Nabers the ball, he is not racking up gawdy yardage. The rookie is a solid PPR play, however. Scoring his first touchdown since Week 3 helps, but the Giants cannot be expected to be productive in that department. They have not topped 20 points in their last five contests. None of the other pass catchers is producing at a startable level for fantasy. None recorded more than four catches or 40 yards versus the Ravens.
Tyrone Tracy Jr. and Devin Singletary split the backfield work in this one, Tracy carrying the ball 10 times to Singletary’s eight. Tracy was targeted four times to Singletary’s three, but the rookie caught just one pass while Singletary caught all three. Neither back topped 50 yards from scrimmage, Singletary scoring the lone rushing TD in the second quarter. Nabers is safe as a PPR play, but the whole Giants offensive unit will continue to struggle with the question marks at quarterback.
