Florio: Zay Flowers (hamstring) will have MRI
Key Points:
- Giants rookie WR Malachi Fields caught 2-of-4 targets for 25 yards in Week 1, showing strong blocking skills and earning trust as the WR2 opposite Malik Nabers, but his fantasy upside is limited due to target competition.
- Malik Nabers led the Giants with 6-of-9 receptions for 69 yards, showcasing alpha receiver potential and high target volume alongside tight end Isaiah Likely, making him a solid fantasy WR1 candidate despite a tough Week 2 matchup.
- Isaiah Likely made a strong debut for the Giants with 8 receptions for 78 yards and two touchdowns, proving to be a key offensive weapon and a fantasy TE1 option, although he faces a challenging matchup in Week 2.
- Giants RB Cam Skattebo led the team with 18 carries for 81 yards and a touchdown, maintaining a high workload and touchdown pace that keeps him in RB1 discussions despite a tough upcoming game against the Rams.
- Cowboys’ key offensive players struggled in the Week 1 loss: WRs Ryan Flournoy and George Pickens had modest production, while TE Jake Ferguson and WR CeeDee Lamb showed flashes but were limited by game flow and defensive schemes, with all facing hopeful bounce-back opportunities in Week 2.
