Daniel Jones Fantasy Football News | Shark Bites

Shark Bites are the latest fantasy football news & NFL updates. Draft Sharks has been in business since 1999. And when we started, redraft was the dominant form of fantasy football. Check out what we've learned about this most basic form of fantasy football along the way.

Giants QB Daniel Jones struggled throwing the football, ending up completing 22-of-37 passes for 190 yards and two INTs. He did find success rushing the ball, running seven times for 26 yards and a TD. Against the weak Panthers defense, these numbers are extremely disappointing.

Giants QB Daniel Jones threw a pair of TD passes and ran for a score in Sunday's loss to the Commanders. Jones rushed seven times for 54 yards, including a 2-yard TD in the fourth quarter. He added 174 yards passing, with no INTs, 2 sacks taken, and one fumble.

Giants WR Malik Nabers caught 7 of 13 targets for 71 yards in a Week 8 loss to Pittsburgh. His season-long target share is now nearly 37%.

The Giants pulled QB Daniel Jones for the fourth quarter of Sunday's lopsided loss to the Eagles. He completed 14 of 21 passes for just 99 yards while taking 7 sacks before that departure. Drew Lock entered to go 3-for-8 with 6 yards passing.

Giants QB Daniel Jones put up a stinker in Sunday night's loss to the Bengals, despite facing the defense that entered the week as the fourth-friendliest scoring matchup for QBs. Jones threw for just 205 yards on 22-of-41 passing, with 0 TDs and 1 (bad) INT. He did at least add a team-leading 56 rushing yards.

Giants WR Malik Nabers (concussion) is out for Sunday night's game vs. the Bengals. He's yet to practice after sustaining a concussion 15 days ago. We'll see if Nabers can get cleared for Week 7's game vs. the Eagles. His absence this weekend again leaves Wan'Dale Robinson and Darius Slayton as New York's top two WRs. They accounted for 20 of the team's 34 targets last week.

Giants WR Malik Nabers (concussion) remained sidelined for Thursday's practice. With multiple stages of the protocol to pass through still, he's unlikely to be cleared in time for Sunday night's game vs. the Bengals. We'll update Nabers' status again tomorrow but are removing him from the Week 6 Rankings for now. Nabers' absence boosts the target projections for WRs Wan'Dale Robinson and Darius Slayton.

Giants WR Malik Nabers (concussion) will not practice on Thursday, HC Brian Daboll said. The rookie is now a long shot to be cleared in time for Sunday's game vs. the Seahawks, a sentiment echoed by ESPN's Jordan Raanan.

Giants QB Daniel Jones completed 29 of 40 passes (73%) for 281 yards (7.0 YPA) in Thursday night's loss to the Cowboys. He was decisive and accurate in the short passing game, peppering WRs Malik Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson with 29 combined targets. Jones couldn't connect on much downfield, though, notably missing two deep throws to WR Darius Slayton and one to Nabers. Two of those could have gone for TDs with well-placed balls. Jones also struggled in the red zone, with the Giants ultimately settling for five FGs. Jones carried four times for just three yards.

Despite the difficult match-up, QB Daniel Jones had a great game completing 24 of his 34 passes for 236 yards and 2 TDs. He also ran eight times for 20 yards.

Per Giants beat writer Dan Duggan, QB Daniel Jones “has looked so good physically this summer that his return to game action doesn't seem like a big deal.” Jones is set to make his preseason debut today vs. Houston.

Giants QB Daniel Jones has struggled in training camp so far, according to SNY's Connor Hughes. Jones has regularly come up short on deep balls and been inaccurate on shorter passes. It's been a "common occurrence to see Jones simply missing his wide-open guys," Hughes writes.

Giants QB Daniel Jones (knee) has been fully cleared for contact to start training camp, the team announced Wednesday. Jones is set to participate in all 11-on-11 work, which he didn't do in the spring. “He will play every snap the (first-team offense) is in,” HC Brian Daboll said, adding that the team will monitor Jones closely throughout camp.

Giants QB Daniel Jones (knee) is not expected to land on the PUP list to begin training camp, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Jones is working back from a right ACL tear suffered on November 5. He's on track to be ready for Week 1, barring a setback between now and then.

Giants HC Brian Daboll has been calling plays on offense so far this offseason, according to ESPN's Jordan Raanan. OC Mike Kafka handled those duties over the past two years. The team hasn't officially announced the change, but it looks like it'll be Daboll at the controls this season.

ESPN's Jordan Ranaan reports that Giants TE Darren Waller is expected to announce next week whether he'll play this season -- and that "people in and around the team expect that he's going to retire." The team has a two-day mandatory minicamp starting on June 11. Waller's expected to deliver his decision ahead of that.

The Giants drafted WR Malik Nabers sixth overall. Nabers is an explosive athlete, confirmed by a 4.35-second 40 time and 42-inch vertical at his Pro Day. Those are 91st- and 97th-percentile marks for his position. A big play waiting to happen both after the catch and going deep, Nabers averaged 15.9 yards per catch for his college career. He flashed as a freshman at LSU and then broke out as a sophomore, leading the team with 72 catches and 1,017 yards. Then came a massive junior season: 89 catches, 1,569 yards, and 14 TDs. Nabers led the FBS in plays of 20+ yards (34) and 30+ yards (17). He also led all 286 qualifying WRs in Pro Football Focus receiving grade and ranked third in yards per route. In many ways, his 2023 season was better than Marvin Harrison Jr.’s. Nabers isn’t as polished as Harrison, needing work on his route running and ball skills. But his pure athleticism should create plenty of 2024 fantasy value. And his long-term fantasy ceiling might be higher than Harrison’s. The Giants present opportunity for Nabers to immediately lead the team in targets. The team picking him instead of a QB in Round 1 also bodes well for the 2024 fantasy outlook of QB Daniel Jones, who has been going at the bottom of QB3 territory in early best ball drafting.
