Bennie Fowler catches one pass in Week 16 loss.

It went for 26 yards. Fowler won’t be a recommended fantasy option next week as the passing attack goes through Sterling Shepard, Evan Engram, and Saquon Barkley.

Sterling Shepard goes over 100 yards in Week 16 loss.

Shepard caught six passes for 113 yards, also adding a rush for negative-three yards. The time with Odell Beckham (quad) out of the lineup didn’t start great for Shepard, but Sunday was a promising bounce back in a good spot. The 24-year-old will be a quality FLEX option in the season finale against Dallas.

Corey Coleman rushes once in loss to the Colts.

It went for five yards, and he didn’t catch his lone target. Coleman will look to flash in the season finale and to vault him into 2019 success.

Wayne Gallman rushed twice for 12 yards in Sunday’s loss to the Colts.

Gallman wasn’t targeted in the passing game. There was thought that the second-year back might be more involved down the stretch as New York looks to 2019, but they continue to feed Saquon Barkley (26 touches), which will likely remain the case in the finale. Gallman is just a stash in dynasty leagues based on individual talent.

Evan Engram totals 113 yards in loss to the Colts.

Engram caught six passes for 87 yards, also adding two carries for 13 yards. The 2017 first-round pick had seemed to fall out of favor with Pat Shurmur due to injuries, but he has re-emerged over the past three games, going for lines of 3/77, 8/75, and 6/87. The year hasn’t been what Engram was hoping for, but he will look to continue his strong finish next week as a solid TE1 against Dallas.

Saquon Barkley bottled up on 26 touches in Week 16 loss.

Barkley rushed 21 times for 43 yards and a touchdown, also adding five receptions for 34 yards. Outside of a one-yard touchdown run in the first quarter that Saquon bounced to get in for six, Indy completely shut him down, lowering his yards-per-carry average for the season to 4.9. Still, the prized rookie already has 14 total touchdowns and will look to build on his standout campaign next week in the season finale against the Cowboys. Consider him an elite RB1.

Eli Manning plays well in 28-27 loss to the Colts.

Manning was 25/33 for 309 yards, one touchdown, and one interception, also adding two carries for zero yards and another score. Eli did most of his damage to Sterling Shepard (6/113) and Evan Engram (6/87), but a potential game-winning drive was cut short on an overthrow over the middle into Malik Hooker’s arms. The Giants will look to finish strong next week against the Cowboys—who locked up the NFC East on Sunday—but Manning won’t be anything more than a low-end QB2 option.
