Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Turns 11 targets into 50 yards
Rotowire
Robinson finished with five receptions (11 targets) for 50 yards in Sunday's 17-7 loss to the Bengals.
Robinson tied teammate Darius Slayton for the team lead in targets (11) while Malik Nabers (concussion) remained sidelined for the second consecutive game. The 23-year-old Robinson couldn't replicate his trip to the end zone from last week's depth chart promotion, but he still produced decent numbers considering the Giants were just held to seven points at home. The 11 targets marked the third time in six games this season that Robinson has hit double-digit targets. Despite his unpredictable workload, Robinson is providing fantasy value for those in deeper formats off of volume alone heading into a Week 7 matchup against Philadelphia.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: WRs to Start
Rotowire
Malik Nabers (concussion) is out for Week 6 against the Bengals, and I would start Robinson as a No. 2 receiver in all leagues. Robinson has scored at least 13.1 PPR points in three weeks in a row. He continues to be a go-to option for Daniel Jones, and Robinson has four games with at least eight targets. And with Nabers out, I like Darious Slayton as a high-end No. 3 Fantasy receiver as well. Slayton just replaced Nabers at Seattle in Week 5 and had eight catches for 122 yards and a touchdown on 11 targets. Slayton has now scored a touchdown in four games in a row without Nabers on the field going back to the end of 2023. The Bengals have allowed a pair of receivers to score at least 15.8 PPR points in each of the past two games against Carolina and Baltimore.
Robinson was my top WR add last week, but he's still available in more than a third of leagues. He has at least eight targets in four of his five outings and at least 13 PPR Fantasy points in each of his last three games. He's a must-start top-20 guy if Malik Nabers remains sidelined and a borderline WR2 if Nabers is back.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Week 6 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
The Giants have two receivers worth adding in Robinson and Darius Slayton (9 percent rostered) but for different reasons. Robinson, as we've been saying for weeks, should be added to all leagues, and he scored at least 13.1 PPR points in three weeks in a row. He continues to be a go-to option for Daniel Jones, and Robinson has four games with at least eight targets. Slayton just replaced Malik Nabers (concussion) in Week 5 at Seattle and had eight catches for 122 yards and a touchdown on 11 targets. Slayton has now scored a touchdown in four games in a row without Nabers on the field going back to the end of 2023. Since Nabers can return in Week 6 against Cincinnati, it's risky to go all in on Slayton, but he should be added for up to 5 percent of your remaining FAB. Robinson, where available, should be added for at least 15 percent of your remaining FAB.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Similar usage in Nabers' absence
Rotowire
Robinson caught six of nine targets for 36 yards and a touchdown while adding a four-yard rush in Sunday's 29-20 win over the Seahawks.
Robinson tied the game at a touchdown apiece with a seven-yard touchdown catch in the second quarter. This was the fourth consecutive game with more than 60 receiving yards or a touchdown for Robinson, who has carved out a significant role in the Giants' offense out of the slot. Robinson's role wasn't significantly affected by the absence of sensational rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers (concussion), but Darius Slayton turned into the team's top pass catcher with eight catches for 122 yards and a touchdown on 11 targets. Robinson's Week 6 outlook against the Bengals is unlikely to be affected significantly by Nabers' availability or lack thereof.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Set to operate as No. 1 wideout
Rotowire
Robinson is in line to serve as the Giants' No. 1 receiver in Sunday's Week 5 matchup against the Seahawks with Malik Nabers (concussion) inactive for the contest, per Dan Salomone of the team's official site.
Robinson has already seen volume befitting the title of the alpha pass catcher of the offense, logging 38 targets through the first four games of the season. The third-year pro has just an average depth of target of 4.6 yards, however, so while he projects for another extremely busy afternoon, veteran Darius Slayton and speedy second-year man Jalin Hyatt are likely to share the downfield routes Nabers' absence opens up.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Sleeper WRs
Rotowire
Malik Nabers (concussion) is out for Week 5 at Seattle, which should mean plenty of targets for Robinson. And I like Darius Slayton as a sleeper as well in deeper leagues. Robinson just had 11 catches for 71 yards on 14 targets in Week 4 against Dallas, and that's his third game this season with at least eight targets and six catches. He's also scored at least 13.1 PPR points in each of his past two games and has just one game this season below 11.8 PPR points. Robinson should be considered a No. 3 PPR receiver for Week 5 at Seattle, and he could get 10 catches in this matchup. For Slayton, he hasn't done much this season with Nabers and Robinson hogging most of the targets from Daniel Jones, and Slayton's best game was Week 4 against Dallas with three catches for 56 yards on four targets. But last season, Slayton had at least 17.2 PPR points in each of his final three games, and he caught a touchdown in each outing. He could be a nice surprise in Week 5 with Nabers out.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Clear for Week 5
Rotowire
Robinson (heel) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game in Seattle, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Robinson logged limited practices Wednesday and Thursday due to a heel injury, but the issue won't stop him from being out there Week 5, when he likely will be the Giants' top pass catcher with WR Malik Nabers (concussion) sidelined and RB Devin Singletary (groin) doubtful to play. Through four contests this season, Robinson is second on the team in targets with 38, which he's parlayed into a 26-194-1 line.
Robinson (heel) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Robinson now has opened Week 5 prep with back-to-back capped sessions, giving him just one more opportunity to get back to full participation before the Giants potentially tag him with a designation ahead of Sunday's game at Seattle. Meanwhile, fellow WR Malik Nabers (concussion) seems to be trending in the wrong direction with no practice reps to speak of so far this week, so if Robinson is available Sunday, he likely would serve as the top pass catcher available to QB Daniel Jones. Through four contests on the campaign, Robinson has hauled in 26 of 38 targets for 194 yards and one touchdown.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Tending to heel issue
Rotowire
Robinson was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a heel injury, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Alongside rookie standout wide receiver Malik Nabers, Robinson has been regularly featured in the Giants' passing game this season, resulting in a 26-194-1 receiving line on 38 targets in four contests. With Nabers in the concussion protocol and not practicing Wednesday, Robinson could have a chance to be the No. 1 wideout in the short term if the former isn't able to gain clearance from an independent neurologist prior to Sunday's visit to the Seahawks. However, Robinson has a health concern himself, so his status bears watching as the week continues.
The Giants' highly concentrated offensive attack means that Robinson can be a Fantasy WR3 even when Nabers is the clear WR1. With four teams on a bye and all these injuries, Robinson may even be a WR2 this week. He's scored at least 9.8 PPR Fantasy points in every game, and he's topped 11 in three of four.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Week 5 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Robinson just had 11 catches for 71 yards on 14 targets in Week 4 against Dallas, and that's his third game this season with at least eight targets and six catches. He's also scored at least 13.1 PPR points in each of his past two games and has just one game this season below 11.8 PPR points. He's only scored one touchdown and likely won't find the end zone on a regular basis, so his value is higher in PPR, but Robinson should now be considered a No. 3 PPR receiver heading into Week 5 at Seattle. He's worth adding for at least 10-15 percent of your remaining FAB.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Extremely busy in loss
Rotowire
Robinson secured 11 of 14 targets for 71 yards in the Giants' 20-15 loss to the Cowboys on Thursday night.
Robinson finished second in receptions, receiving yards and targets to Malik Nabers (concussion) on the night, with all three figures also serving as season highs. The third-year pro's short-area role was as prominent as ever, although he was the intended target on a deep pass down the right sideline with 28 seconds remaining. Nabers should have a good chance of clearing concussion protocol in time for a Week 5 road matchup against the Seahawks on Sunday, Oct. 6, but Robinson would be poised to see even more work in that contest should his teammate sit out.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Week 4 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Robinson has quietly had a nice start to the season for the Giants and Fantasy managers as the Robin to Malik Nabers' Batman. Robinson has 24 targets in three games, and he's scored at least 11.8 PPR points in two outings, including two games with at least six receptions. He's never going to be an option in non-PPR leagues, but in PPR he could be a No. 3 receiver in deeper leagues. He's worth adding for 5-10 percent of your remaining FAB.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Week 3 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Robinson scored a touchdown in Week 2 at Washington, but he only had two catches for 18 yards on four targets. His outing in Week 1 against Minnesota is more of what to expect when he had six catches for 44 yards on 12 targets. Malik Nabers had 18 targets against the Commanders, and Daniel Jones will likely spread the ball around more moving forward. I still like Robinson as a low-end starter in deep PPR leagues, and he's worth adding for up to 5 percent of your remaining FAB.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Scores first TD of season
Rotowire
Robinson caught two of four targets for 18 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Commanders.
While the third-year wideout saw little volume, something that was true for every Giant other than rookie Malik Nabers (10-127-1 on 18 targets), Robinson was on the other end of a seven-yard Daniel Jones TD early in the fourth quarter. Robinson caught only one touchdown in each of his first two NFL seasons, but he should easily top that mark in 2024 if he can stay healthy, even if he's just a secondary read for Jones behind Nabers. Robinson faces a tough challenge in Week 3 against a stingy Browns secondary.

Robinson isn't going to make a lot of big plays for the Giants, especially with Daniel Jones at quarterback, but Robinson could be a decent No. 3 PPR receiver.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Targeted 12 times in opener
Rotowire
Robinson caught six of 12 targets for 44 yards and added a 14-yard run in Sunday's 28-6 loss to the Vikings.
Robinson was frequently targeted near the line of scrimmage and finished with five more targets than second-place Malik Nabers, though Nabers led the team with 66 receiving yards. The Giants' entire passing game will continue to struggle barring significant improvement from quarterback Daniel Jones, who threw for just 186 yards on 42 pass attempts (4.4 yards per attempt) with a 0:2 TD:INT. A Week 2 trip to Washington could be just what the Giants need, as Jones is 5-1-1 with a 10:3 TD:INT against the Commanders in his career.

We know Malik Nabers is going to lead the Giants in targets, but Robinson could be second on the team. While this isn't a passing game you want to invest heavily in, Robinson could still be a top option for Daniel Jones, especially if he remains the slot receiver. I'm excited to see what Robinson can do in his third season in the NFL.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Nabs lone target in preseason loss
Rotowire
Robinson caught his only target for 13 yards Saturday in an exhibition loss to the Texans.
Darius Slayton and Malik Nabers were the Giants' top receivers with 59 and 54 yards, respectively, Saturday, and that duo figures to lead the team's receiver corps throughout the campaign. However, Robinson could still see plenty of opportunities as a slot and possession receiver, with his fantasy value more promising in PPR leagues. Saturday marked Robinson's first action of the preseason, as he was held out of the New York's exhibition opener against Detroit.
