57°Availability
The New York Giants D/ST held the Vikings to just 240 yards, recorded four sacks, forced two turnovers and had a fumble return for a score. It wasn't enough, however, as New York suffered a 16-13 loss - its ninth straight setback.
Fantasy Impact
The Giants' defense did their part on Sunday as they tried to snap their lengthy losing skid. But, New York's offense could not score an offensive touchdown and the streak reached nine consecutive losses. The Giants' only touchdown came on defense as Brian Burns strip sacked J.J. McCarthy late in the first half. Tyler Nubin picked up the loose ball and took it to paydirt from 27 yards out. The Giants visit the Raiders on Sunday in a game that could determine the top pick in the 2026 NFL Draft.
The Giants D/ST allowed 29 points on 340 total yards with two sacks and two fumble recoveries on Sunday.
Fantasy Impact
The Commanders had one big play on the Giants with a 51-yard touchdown pass from Marcus Mariota to Terry McLaurin. The Giants D/ST remains off the fantasy radar.
The Giants' D/ST logged three sacks and allowed 33 points in Monday night's loss to the New England Patriots.
Fantasy Impact
New York struggled as a team on Monday, particularly their defense and special teams. They allowed 33 points over the course of the game, which obviously led to a loss for the Giants on the road. This unit should not be started in any matchups moving forward.
The Giants D/ST logged three sacks while also forcing one turnover (one interception) in a 34-27 loss to the Lions in Week 12.
Fantasy Impact
The unit was unable to make key stops when it mattered, allowing multiple touchdowns on the ground and through the air in a losing effort Sunday. Fantasy managers remain better served using a more reliable option in all formats ahead of a Week 13 contest against the New England Patriots.
The Giants D/ST recorded two sacks in a 27-20 loss to the Packers in Week 11.
Fantasy Impact
The unit failed to make stops when the Giants needed them, allowing four touchdowns and failing to record a turnover despite holding the Packers under 300 offensive yards. Fantasy managers will be better served with a more favorable option in Week 12, with the Giants facing the Detroit Lions next.
