Orleans Darkwa gets three carries in Week 2.

Darkwa looked good on his carries, gaining 17 yards on them and brining some energy to the run game. Darkwa also had a three-yard reception against the Lions. He’s not a fantasy option getting only a few touches per game.

Shane Vereen gets nine touches in Week 2.

Vereen had six rushes for 28 yards and three receptions for 27 yards. He played the best of anyone in the Giants backfield, but his role isn’t big enough to be an option outside of PPR leagues.

Giants offense struggles as Giants drop to 0-2.

Again, the offensive line struggled to protect Eli Manning, who was sacked five times and didn’t have much of a chance to make plays. Considering the lack of pass protection, Manning played pretty well in the game, going 22/32 for 239 yards, one touchdown, and one interception—and he had a perfect deep ball dropped by Brandon Marshall. The TD came on a play-action fake that led to a wide-open Evan Engram streaking down the field for 18 yards. The interception wasn’t good, as it came on a pass behind Engram, who got one hand on it before it was picked, right after the Giants forced a turnover. With a game coming up this Sunday against a solid Eagles pass rush, the Giants might struggle to protect Eli in Week 3.

Kenny Golladay catches one pass in Week 2.

After his breakout first-career game last Sunday against the Cardinals, Golladay had only eight yards against the Giants. The good news is Matthew Stafford took a couple of deep shots to Golladay and clearly trusts the rookie to make plays. There are probably better options in your fantasy lineup, but Golladay offers upside in Week 3 versus the Falcons.

Golden Tate catches all four targets in Week 2.

The Lions mostly got Tate involved on quick bubble screens, and he only had 25 yards on his four receptions. He’ll look to do more damage on Sunday against the Falcons.

Marvin Jones Jr. catches 27-yard touchdown in Week 2.

Matthew Stafford took advantage of single coverage against Jones and took a shot to the end zone against Eli Apple, and Jones came down with it pretty easily. It was Jones’ only catch on five targets, but he obviously made the most of it. He’s in FLEX consideration for Week 3 against the Falcons.

Tyler Lockett leads Seahawks in receiving in Week 2.

Lockett looked like his healthy self, catching six of nine targets for 64 yards, including a long of 22 yards. Considering the passing offense struggled, it was a solid game for Lockett. The Titans in Week 3 are not an easy matchup, but Lockett is worth FLEX consideration if you’re struggling with injuries.
