Outlook Cam Skattebo
Cam Skattebo vs. Saints — Heavy Volume Expected Despite Recent Ball-Security Troubles
Cam Skattebo continues to operate as the Giants' lead back heading into a home matchup against New Orleans, though a costly overtime fumble last week highlighted ongoing ball-security issues. Despite minor rotation with Tyrone Tracy Jr. and Najee Harris, Skattebo remains atop the depth chart and carries no injury designation after logging 31 carries over his past two contests.
Rostered everywhere with an 89% start rate, fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into lineups across all formats. Our weekly projection forecasts roughly 20 carries for 73 rushing yards and three receptions for 15.7 fantasy points, offering a stable workload in a tightly projected home battle.

Outlook Alec Pierce
Alec Pierce Sidelined on IR — Heel Rehab Clouds Midseason Outlook
Pierce remains sidelined on injured reserve after re-aggravating a surgically repaired left heel against Kansas City. Head coach Shane Steichen noted that Pierce avoided another surgery and continues to rehab, though he is expected to miss multiple weeks. In his absence, Indianapolis added veteran Darius Slayton to help flank Keenan Allen and Josh Downs in the passing attack.
Our weekly projections slate Pierce for zero points against Tennessee as he remains out. Coming off a breakout 2025 campaign with 1,029 yards and six scores, Pierce still holds long-term value, but his roster rate has dipped to 62%. Fantasy managers should stash him on IR if space allows, but keep him benched this week and check back often for updates on his recovery.
