New York Giants WR Darius Slayton is not guaranteed a spot on the 53-man roster, according to sources.
| Footballguys view: Slayton has not looked the same coming back from his hernia surgery this offseason. He's competing with Odell Beckham for what could be the final spot on the 53-man roster at the wide receiver position. |

Updating previous reports, New York Giants RB Tyrone Tracy Jr. (neck, shoulder) sustained a stinger during the preseason game against the New York Jets Friday, Aug. 28, according to head coach John Harbaugh.
| Footballguys view: Tracy was evaluated and then cleared for a concussion. Before exiting, Tracy had 37 yards and a touchdown on four carries. Cam Skattebo, Najee Harris and Devin Singletary along with Tracy make up the Giants' backfield, so Tracy would have to see injuries strike above him on the depth chart to have a fantasy relevant role. |
Baltimore Ravens DT CJ Okoye was acquired from the New York Giants Saturday, Aug. 29, in exchange for a seventh-round pick in the 2028 NFL Draft.

Link to storyNew York Giants QB Jaxson Dart is not expected to play in the preseason game Friday, Aug. 28, according to sources.
Link to storyNew York Giants RB Najee Harris is expected to play in the team's final preseason game on Friday, Aug. 28. He has not played since tearing his Achilles in Week 3 of the 2025 season.
| Footballguys view: Harris needs to prove that he is game shape, so this isn't necessarily a sign that he is on the margins of the depth chart. On the other hand, if he looks good, Harris could force a committee with Cam Skattebo right away, given his experience and durability. |

New York Giants WR Malachi Fields is likely to be the team's No. 2 receiver. The team traded up to get him in the third round because they were infatuated with his size, physicality and ability to make contested catches. He has shown all of that in camp.
| Footballguys view: Fields is at least on our waiver wire watch lists, if not a deep league late round pick. He wins when the ball is in the air and could be a top red zone target for Jaxson Dart. Fields is still going to be in the shadow of Malik Nabers and maybe Isaiah Likely, so he's not a priority late round target. |
New York Giants WR Calvin Austin (knee) was placed on the Reserve/Injured list Thursday, Aug. 27.
| Footballguys view: Bad news for the Giants here. Austin had been an impressive player this offseason, and many were speculating he would play a sizable role in the Giants' offense as the slot receiver. Now, the Giants could turn to Malachai Fields as an option behind Malik Nabers, Darius Slayton, and Darnell Mooney. |
New York Giants WR Darnell Mooney saw an 'increased workload' during practice Wednesday, Aug. 26, following the injury to WR Calvin Austin (knee), according to Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: Mooney signed a one-year, $10 million deal with the Giants this offseason ($3 million in dead money, $7 million in incentives). Drops, injuries, and inconsistent play plagued Mooney's game last year with the Falcons. He may never be the 1,000-yard receiver he used to be with the Bears (2021), but Mooney gives the Giants a veteran presence as their no.3 receiver behind Malik Nabers and Darius Slayton. |

Updating a previous report, New York Giants WR Calvin Austin (knee) will miss the entire season due to a knee injury, according to a source.
Link to storyNew York Giants WR Calvin Austin (knee) was reportedly carted off from Tuesday's practice after going to the ground on 1-on-1 drills running a route and immediately grabbing his knee, according to a source on Tuesday, Aug. 25.
Link to storyThe Giants' receiving corps may have been dealt a serious blow on Tuesday. Calvin Austin had to be carted off the field after going down while running a 1-on-1 drill.
| Footballguys view: Reporters at the practice noted that Austin grabbed his right knee after going down and that he was consoled by teammates as well as team owner John Mara before making his way off the field. Austin signed a one-year deal with the Giants this offseason after spending his first four NFL seasons with the Steelers. The team lists him behind Malik Nabers on the depth chart. Odell Beckham Jr. is one of the wideouts behind Austin, and a severe injury could help the veteran solidify his hold on a roster spot in his second tour of duty with the Giants. |
New York Giants TE Theo Johnson (undisclosed) left practice Monday, Aug. 24, early after suffering an undisclosed injury.
| Footballguys view: Johnson went down while blocking, prompting trainers to rush onto the field. According to local reports, Johnson walked off, slammed his helmet into the grass, ripped off his gloves, pulled his hood up, and headed briskly toward the locker room alone, appearing frustrated. Isaiah Likely has been the fantasy-relevant TE in New York all along, but we'll continue to watch for more on Johnson and report back as developments warrant. |
New York Giants WR Malik Nabers (knee) was not wearing a no-contact jersey during practice Monday, Aug. 24. He was catching passes while running at 75 percent speed during practice.
| Footballguys view: As CBSSports.com notes, Nabers has been taking part in team drills for a little more than one week, but he was wearing the red jersey until Monday's development. This doesn't mean he's been cleared for all activity, but he is now closing in on the final stages of his recovery from the torn ACL that he suffered in his right knee in Week 4 of last season. All signs are pointing toward Nabers being available Week 1 against the Cowboys. He's a prime pick in Round 3 at his current WR12 ADP. |
New York Giants WR Ryan Miller was waived Monday, Aug. 24.

Link to storyNew York Giants WR Malik Nabers (knee) might shed his non-contact jersey sometime this week, head coach John Harbaugh said Sunday, Aug. 23.
| Footballguys view: Everything is proceeding at a pace to expect Nabers to be full go for Week 1 against the Cowboys. His ADP may go up a few spots when he is officially cleared for contact. |
New York Giants RB Tyrone Tracy Jr. may be in danger of not making the team's 53-man roster, in the opinion of Paul Schwartz of the New York Post.
Link to storyNew York Giants RB Tyrone Tracy Jr. rushed six times for 26 yards, caught three passes for 22 yards and lost a fumble during the preseason game against the Miami Dolphins Saturday, Aug. 22.
| Footballguys view: Tracy's lost fumble was in the red zone, so that makes two big no-no's in the preseason after he got his quarterback blown up by whiffing on a pass block last week. Najee Harris should be the backup as soon as he is football shape. Tracy wasn't seen as a cut candidate last week, but that could change, or he could be shopped for a late round pick swap. Either way, his dynasty value is plummeting. |

New York Giants OG Joshua Ezeudu (leg) left the Giants' preseason game against the Miami Dolphins as he reportedly had his left leg rolled up by a teammate, according to a source on Saturday, Aug. 22.
Link to storyNew York Giants WR Darius Slayton could be behind several other pass-catchers in the Giants' receiver pecking order, as Slayton suited up for their preseason game against the Miami Dolphins while WRs Malachi Fields, Darnell Mooney, and Braxton Berrios were all given the day off, in the opinion of ESPN's Jordan Raanan on Saturday, Aug. 22.
| Footballguys view: Slayton has worked his way back from the core muscle surgery that kept him out of action in the spring. He might just be getting some extra (needed) reps to knock off some of the rust. |

New York Giants RB Najee Harris was brought in under the premise that he's going to be a significant contributor, even though a source told ESPN he signed a one-year minimum salary $1.215 million deal with no guaranteed money. The Giants' signing of Harris wasn't in direct response to RB Tyrone Tracy Jr.'s preseason gaffe. The team had been in contact with Harris' representative for months, and the workout was scheduled last week, sources told ESPN.
| Footballguys view: Tyrone Tracy was listed as the first team back along with Cam Skattebo on the first depth chart, so the Giants weren't sold on Skattebo being a true lead back yet early in the preseason. It's not a stretch to see Harris as the #2 back behind Skattebo, and taking more work from him than Tracy would have. Harris is on the borderline of draftable in typical leagues, and Skattebo is a shakier fourth round pick. |

New York Giants DT Darius Alexander (undisclosed) left practice early Thursday, Aug. 20, because of an undisclosed reason.
Link to storyNew York Giants WR Malik Nabers (knee) did not participate in practice Thursday, Aug. 20.
| Footballguys view: Nabers avoided the PUP list to begin training camp, but he's not yet up to full speed according to HC John Harbaugh. So long as there are no setbacks, Nabers should be ready for Week 1. His current ADP is WR14 (3.09) in 12-team PPR leagues. |
New York Giants first-round pick OG Francis Mauigoa (illness) left practice Thursday, Aug. 20, for what's believed to be a heat-related issue.
Link to storyFormer New York Jets DT Ben Barten was awarded to the New York Giants off waivers, according to a source on Wednesday, Aug. 19.
Link to storyNew York Giants RB Najee Harris will likely need 'a couple weeks' to get into football shape, according to head coach John Harbaugh. Harris took part in individual drills only on Tuesday, Aug. 18.
| Footballguys view: Harris looked pretty good in his first practice, so Harbaugh's words don't seem as prohibitive when considering Harris's potential value this season. Cam Skattebo was listed as an -OR- with Tyrone Tracy as first string backs on the depth chart, so the new regime has not anointed Skattebo the lead back yet. Harris isn't a must draft with a late round pick, but we wouldn't talk you out of using a pick on him either. |
