The New York Giants will face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 12. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, especially regarding QB Daniel Jones.
Is Daniel Jones Playing in Week 12?
Jones has been benched and he has been demoted to fourth on the depth chart. We have seen the last of Jones in a Giants uniform.
Daniel Jones’ Fantasy Outlook
Daniel Jones is the only QB with five games in a single season with 35+ pass attempts and zero touchdowns — we aren’t even at Thanksgiving yet.
This season has been a mess. Jones is well below the line of where an advantageous matchup puts you on the streaming radar. He’s rushed for a score in each of his past two games, an upside that is wasted by Jones pacing for the worst healthy season of his career in terms of both yards per completion and yards per rush.
An athletic profile like this with a star receiver should matter. That’s one of the rules in fantasy. Another rule is that not all rules are absolute, and Jones is proof positive of that. News broke Monday morning that New York plans to start Tommy DeVito this week, a move that should not be the least bit surprising.
