New York Giants team news

New York’s offense has leaned heavily on Jaxson Dart this season, and he’s delivered solid production through the air and on the ground. Dart has piled up 1,835 passing yards with 13 touchdowns against five interceptions while completing just over 62 percent of his throws, and he’s added another 407 yards and seven scores with his legs. 

Russell Wilson and Jameis Winston have also seen action, but neither has been especially productive in limited opportunities. In the backfield, Cam Skattebo chipped in 410 rushing yards and five touchdowns before being lost for the season, leaving Tyrone Tracy Jr. to shoulder the load with 575 yards and two scores. 

The passing game has been paced by Wan’Dale Robinson, who leads the team with 81 catches for 901 yards and four touchdowns, while Theo Johnson has emerged as a red-zone threat with five scores on 45 receptions. Darius Slayton has also been a steady contributor. Defensively, Bobby Okereke tops the tackle chart with 130 stops, and Brian Burns has been a menace off the edge with 15 sacks. Overall, the Giants’ defense has totaled 35 sacks and six interceptions.

Raiders vs Giants Fantasy Football

Geno Smith quietly put together an efficient performance last week against a Houston pass defense that usually makes life miserable for quarterbacks. He wrapped up the week as QB20, throwing for 201 yards while completing nearly 70 percent of his passes and averaging an impressive 8.7 yards per attempt. Losing Brock Bowers for the remainder of the season certainly lowers Smith’s ceiling, but there’s still a path to another serviceable QB2 outing. Since Week 12, the Giants have been one of the league’s most forgiving secondaries, allowing the fifth-most yards per attempt, the 11th-highest success rate per dropback, and the highest CPOE in the NFL.

This is also a reminder of why you trust elite talent, no matter the matchup. After back-to-back weeks under 50 scrimmage yards, Jeanty exploded in fantasy semifinal week, finishing as the overall RB1 against a Texans defense many consider the league’s best. He carried the ball 24 times for 128 yards and a touchdown, then added a 60-yard receiving score for good measure. Now he draws a Giants defense that has surrendered the seventh-most fantasy points to running backs since Week 10. If you’ve made it this far, Jeanty has the profile of a player who can push you over the top in championship week.

Tre Tucker also sneaks onto the radar as a deeper-league flex option, thanks largely to a favorable matchup against a battered Giants secondary that has struggled to hold up all season.

At quarterback, the general consensus among fantasy analysts is that Jaxson Dart remains a risky proposition, even with a seemingly friendly matchup against the Raiders. Early in the season, his rushing ability propped up his fantasy value, but that element has been dialed back, leaving his weekly floor far shakier than managers would like.

Tracy, on the other hand, has been a model of steady volume. Over his last three full games, he’s averaged nearly 20 touches and just over 100 total yards, finishing as RB12, RB5, and RB32. He profiles as a dependable RB2 this week with legitimate upside to push past 20 opportunities. While his efficiency metrics are middling, ranking 38th in missed tackle rate and 28th in yards after contact per attempt, the matchup helps. Since Week 12, the Raiders have allowed the tenth-most rushing yards per game, the seventh-highest missed tackle rate, and the second-most yards after contact per carry.

Wan’Dale Robinson continues to offer a solid fantasy floor as well. He sits as the WR19 in points per game and has commanded a 26.5 percent target share with Dart at quarterback, averaging nearly 49 receiving yards per contest and posting respectable efficiency numbers. Robinson has also seen consistent red-zone involvement, with seven targets and ten total looks inside the 20 during that stretch. His outlook hinges on the Giants’ game plan. If they lean heavily on the run again, his ceiling takes a hit. If the offense stays balanced, Robinson shapes up as a strong flex play with WR2 upside against a Raiders defense that has allowed the seventh-most PPR points per target to slot receivers since Week 12.

Raiders vs Giants Game Predictions

Jaxson Dart and this young Giants roster are searching for any spark they can carry forward as Week 17 arrives. Across the field, the Raiders find themselves in a strange spot, a loss would officially lock up the No. 1 overall pick in the 2026 NFL Draft. If Las Vegas is going to push back against that outcome, the clearest path is through Ashton Jeanty, who has a prime opportunity to run wild against a New York defense that has struggled mightily versus the ground game.

That said, the Giants should be able to generate heat up front, and Geno Smith has shown he can be forced into mistakes under pressure. One or two timely sacks turning into turnovers could swing the momentum New York’s way.

Prediction: Expect a scrappy, mistake-filled game, but New York’s pass rush makes the difference late. Giants sneak out a close win, 20-17.
