  • Giants' Darnell Mooney: Full practice Thursday

    Mooney (neck) was a full participant in Thursday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Barring a setback, Mooney will play in Week 6 versus the Saints. However, the 28-year-old hasn't been productive in his five regular-season appearances in 2026, amassing eight receptions (17 targets) for 109 yards.

  • Giants' Darnell Mooney: Limited by neck injury

    Mooney (neck) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Mooney may have tweaked his neck during the Giants' 27-27 tie to the Commanders in Week 5, when caught two of seven targets for 14 yards. He'll have two more opportunities to increase his practice participation and avoid an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Saints. Mooney has just eight catches (on 17 targets) for 109 yards through five games and has taken a back seat in the passing game behind Malik Nabers and tight end Isaiah Likely.

  • Giants' Darnell Mooney: Totals 29 yards vs. Tennessee

    Mooney caught two passes on three targets for 20 yards and logged a nine-yard carry during the Giants' 12-7 win over the Titans on Sunday.

    Mooney has logged two catches in each of the first three games of the regular season, and his 95 receiving yards are third-most on the Giants behind Isaiah Likely (124) and Malik Nabers (96). The Giants will stay home for Week 4 against the Cardinals, whose defense has given up the second-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season.

  • Giants' Darnell Mooney: Leading receiver in loss

    Mooney caught two of three targets for 48 yards in Monday night's 28-6 loss to the Rams.

    Mooney led the team with 48 receiving yards in what was a disappointing outing for New York's offense. Starting quarterback Jaxson Dart suffered a knee injury on the first possession of the game, and he is expected to be sidelined for the foreseeable future. Mooney will look to continue to build chemistry with new starter Jameis Winston in Week 3 against the Titans.

  • Giants' Darnell Mooney: Two catches in Week 1

    Mooney caught both of his targets for 27 yards in Sunday night's 28-20 victory over Dallas.

    Mooney was on the field for 39 of the team's 69 total offensive snaps, 11 fewer than rookie Malachi Fields. He appears to have settled in as New York's primary slot receiver as the regular season gets underway, and veteran Odell Beckham may be his biggest competition for the role moving forward.

  • Giants' Darnell Mooney: Could have path to No. 3 role sans Austin

    Mooney could have a chance to open the season as the Giants' No. 3 receiver after Calvin Austin (knee) sustained a torn ACL in Tuesday's practice, Jordan Ranaan of ESPN.com reports.

    Before injuring his right knee, Austin looked primed to play a significant role as the Giants' slot receiver, but the team is now expected to take a committee approach to that position in the wake of his season-ending injury, per Dan Duggan of The Athletic. Along with Mooney, fellow wideouts Malik Nabers (knee) and Odell Beckham and tight end Isaiah Likely could also get more chances to work in the slot. Ranaan notes that Mooney -- who produced a 32-443-1 receiving line on 72 targets in 15 games with the Falcons in 2025 -- turned in one of his best practices of the summer Tuesday, which could prompt the coaching staff to carve out more snaps for him with the first-team offense.
