Dante Pettis Daily Fantasy News, Rankings, Projections

CHI WR Chase Claypool (knee), WR Dante Pettis (ankle) and TE Trevon Wesco (calf) are all listed questionable for Week 17.

CHI WR Dante Pettis (ankle) did not practice Thursday.

CHI WR Dante Pettis (ankle) and TE Trevon Wesco (calf) were limited at practice Wednesday.

It's a step in the wrong direction as he was at practice yesterday, and it looks like we might have to wait to see his debut if the trend continues.

This is a doozie of an injury report but here we go: Saquon Barkley, Sterling Shepard, and Dante Pettis all listed out for Sunday; Kenny Golladay, John Ross, and Gary Brightwell listed questionable; Kadarius Toney not listed on injury report Despite the length of the report this is actually what we were expecting. With Barkley out Devontae Booker will once again lead the backfield with Elijhaa Penny and Gary Brightwell (questionable) backing him up and is a decent value play. Golladay is expected to make his return this week and should immediately slot back in as the top receiver flanked by Kadarius Toney (with Shepard ruled out) and both can be considered in DFS contests.

Sterling Shepard and Dante Pettis logged DNPs Thursday while Kenny Golladay, Kadarius Toney, John Ross, and Kaden Smith were all limited and seem on track to play Sunday against the Las Vegas Raiders. Shepard and Pettis seem doubtful at this point but the good news is that Golladay looks set to make his return and instantly take over the number one receiver spot for the Giants. Toney will likely be used as the second receiver with Darius Slayton as the third. The Giants receiving corps can't seem to get healthy all at the same time which offers value based on who is able to play that specific week. This week the main targets should be Golladay, Toney, and Slayton provided they are all available to play.

Saquon Barkley, Kenny Golladay, Dante Pettis, and Sterling Shepard all log DNPs Wednesday while Kadarius Toney and Kaden Smith were limited ahead of the Giants matchup Sunday with the Las Vegas Raiders. Barkley has tested positive for COVID-19 so his status is uncertain for Sunday, Devontae Booker would continue to lead the backfield if Barkley is unable to play. Golladay, Pettis, Toney, and Smith seem to a least have a chance to play this weekend while Shepard has all but been ruled out. The Giants look like they will be thin once again at receiver meaning whoever does suit up will provide some increased value based on expected volume.

Dante Pettis has been elevated from the practice squad for Sunday's game against the Los Angeles Rams. Pettis is expected to serve as receiver depth with the Giants' receiving corps still not at full strength, but Pettis is not DFS relevant at this time.
