Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Paces pass catchers in win
Rotowire
Robinson secured six of seven targets for 84 yards and a touchdown in the Giants' 34-17 win over the Eagles on Thursday night.
Robinson's catch and yardage totals were both team highs for the Giants on the night, and his target tally was second only to that of Lil'Jordan Humphrey. The highlight of Robinson's night was his 35-yard touchdown reception in the first quarter, his second score of the campaign. Robinson now has seen seven targets apiece in his first two full games without Malik Nabers (IR, knee), and his involvement should remain elevated during a tough Week 7 road matchup against the Broncos on Sunday, Oct. 19.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Hauls in five catches Sunday
Rotowire
Robinson caught five of seven targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 26-14 loss to the Saints. He added two rushing yards on his only carry.
Jaxson Dart wasn't able to stretch the field much in his first game working without Malik Nabers (knee), and while tight ends Theo Johnson (6-33-2 on seven targets) and Daniel Bellinger (4-52-0 on four targets) saw more volume than usual, Robinson was able to get his share of those short passes as well. The veteran slot receiver has caught multiple passes in four of five games so far in 2025, posting a 23-267-1 line on 34 targets, and he should continue to have a solid PPR floor given the team's lack of other receiving options. However, Robinson may not have much of a ceiling in a Week 6 clash with the Eagles.
We normally limit the waiver wire to guys rostered in 65% of leagues or less, but I am making an exception for Robinson. He led the Giants with a 25% target share in Week 4 and I would expect him to lead the team in targets rest of season. His yards per reception and yards per target are both well above his career averages and his catch rate is still at 66%. This will be a low-volume pass attack but Robinson could still be a solid flex most weeks. This week, with all the injuries and byes, Robinson is a solid WR3.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Just three grabs Sunday
Rotowire
Robinson caught three of five targets for 14 yards in Sunday's 21-18 win over the Giants.
The five targets tied for the team lead with tight end Theo Johnson, but it was still disappointing volume for Robinson in Jaxson Dart's first career NFL start under center, especially considering that Malik Nabers (knee) was knocked out of the game in the second quarter. Nabers could have a torn ACL which would sideline him for the remainder of 2025, a brutal blow to the Giants offense that would leave Robinson and Darius Slayton atop the depth chart at WR. Robinson will take an 18-237-1 line on 27 targets into a Week 5 clash with the Saints, but the bulk of that production came Week 2 with Russell Wilson at the helm of the offense.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Sleeper WRs
Rotowire
Robinson had a down game in Week 3 against the Chiefs with one catch for 26 yards on four targets, but I'll go back to him in Week 4 against the Chargers, especially in Jaxson Dart's first NFL start. Dart will likely lean on Robinson a lot in this matchup, and he had 18 targets in his first two games this season, albeit from Russell Wilson. That said, we know Robinson is a target hog and a reliable, short-area target. He's worth using as a No. 3 PPR receiver against the Chargers, who have allowed three receivers to score at least 12.8 PPR points this season.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Held to one catch
Rotowire
Robinson recorded one catch on four targets for 26 yards in Sunday's 22-9 loss to the Chiefs.
The Giants' passing offense never got on track, limiting the production of the entire receiving corps. Robinson wasn't immune, turning in season-worst marks in every statistical category. Many of his targets were tightly contested -- including one that was picked off in double coverage -- and Robinson was hit hard over the middle on his lone catch of the night late in the fourth quarter. Positively, he should continue to maintain a significant role in the offense in Week 4 against the Chargers.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Sleeper WRs
Rotowire
I don't expect Robinson to repeat his performance from Week 2 at Dallas when he had eight catches for 142 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets, but he's always good for a safe floor. For example, he had six catches for 55 yards on eight targets in Week 1 at Washington, and you should be able to count on him for around 12 PPR points in this matchup. Three receivers for the Chargers scored at least 13.4 PPR points against the Chiefs in Week 1, and Robinson and Malik Nabers should once again be heavily involved in this matchup. Robinson is worth using as a No. 3 PPR receiver in Week 3.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Cleared to face Chiefs
Rotowire
Robinson (foot) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Chiefs, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Robinson was a limited practice participant Wednesday and Thursday, having picked up a minor injury during his career-best performance Sunday against the Cowboys. While unlikely to approach last week's 8-142-1 receiving line, Robinson does actually offer some upside now that he's getting targets that aren't within five yards of the line of scrimmage.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Limited again Thursday
Rotowire
Robinson (foot) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Robinson continues to nurse a foot injury he evidently sustained during New York's loss to Dallas in Week 2. As long as he's able to log at least limited reps again Friday, though, Robinson seems like a solid candidate to gain clearance in time for Sunday night's home game against the Chiefs. Robinson has commanded a total of 18 targets across two regular-season appearances so far, and in Week 2 he translated 10 of those looks into a tremendous 8-142-1 receiving line.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Tending to foot issue
Rotowire
Robinson was a limited practice participant Wednesday due to a foot injury, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Robinson dealt with an ankle issue last week and now is tending to a new health concern as the Giants prep for Sunday's matchup with the Chiefs. During a Week 2 back-and-forth overtime loss at Dallas, Robinson handled a 70 percent snap share and reeled off eight catches (on 10 targets) for 142 yards and one touchdown, all of which were surpassed by No. 1 WR Malik Nabers' 9-167-2 line on 13 targets.
I already told you about Robinson's aDOT spike with Russell Wilson under center. Maybe the most impressive part about that is that Robinson also has a career-high 77.8% catch rate, and he's still earning nine targets per game. He has always been great in terms of target volume and catch rate, but those numbers normally decrease when aDOT spikes like Robinson's has. It is a bad matchup in Week 3 against the Chiefs, but Robinson could still be used as a flex in full PPR leagues.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Week 3 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Don't add Robinson if you're chasing his Week 2 performance against Dallas with eight catches for 142 yards and a touchdown on 10 targets. It was a wild game where Russell Wilson passed for 450 yards. But Robinson has 18 targets through two games, and he had 93 catches on 140 targets in 2024. Maybe Wilson can help expand Robinson's game, but he's always worth using as a low-end No. 3 PPR receiver most weeks. He should be added for up to 10 percent of your remaining FAB.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Career-best numbers in Dallas
Rotowire
Robinson caught eight of 10 targets for 142 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 40-37 overtime loss to the Cowboys.
During a wild seesaw affair in which Russell Wilson threw for 450 yards, Robinson set a new career high that shattered his previous best of 100 yards, which he recorded in Week 11 of his rookie season in 2022. The possession receiver has had a strong start to the current campaign, posting a 14-197-1 line on 18 targets, and if the Giants fall behind early he could be busy again in Week 3 against Kansas City.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Good to go Week 2
Rotowire
Robinson (ankle) is officially active for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.
The 24-year-old received the questionable tag after picking up an ankle injury in the season opener, but he'll be available for Sunday's divisional matchup in Dallas. Robinson played 76 percent of the offensive snaps Week 1 and showed a decent rapport with quarterback Russell Wilson, catching six of eight targets for 55 yards.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Listed as questionable
Rotowire
Robinson (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Cowboys, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Fellow Giants wideouts Malik Nabers (back) and Darius Slayton (groin) don't have injury designations, leaving Robinson and LT Andrew Thomas (doubtful, foot) as the question marks for Big Blue's offense ahead of a 1:00 p.m. ET kickoff in Dallas. It looked like a good matchup for Robinson otherwise, with Cowboys slot corner DaRon Bland (foot) expected to miss multiple weeks.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Practicing Thursday
Rotowire
Robinson (ankle) participated in Thursday's practice, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Robinson was held out of drills Wednesday, which was three days removed from handling 52 of 68 offensive snaps, running 32 routes and racking up six catches (on eight targets) for 55 yards during this past Sunday's 21-6 loss at Washington. Top WR Malik Nabers (back) opened this week as limited and is expected to be a full participant Thursday, but it remains to be seen if Robinson also will be unhindered in the Giants' second session of Week 2 prep.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Misses practice with ankle injury
Rotowire
Giants coach Brian Daboll said Wednesday that Robinson (ankle) will not practice, Patricia Traina of SI.com reports.
Robinson played 76 percent of New York's offensive snaps during the Giants' 21-6 loss to the Commanders in Week 1, in which he secured six of eight targets for 55 yards, but he appears to have picked up an ankle injury in the process. Daboll downplayed the severity of Robinson's injury, per Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com, so as long as the No. 2 receiver is able to return to practice Thursday and/or Friday he should have a good chance to suit up Sunday on the road against Dallas. Russell Wilson has been confirmed as the starter again for Week 2, but if the Giants' offense isn't able to improve notably after having been limited to just 168 passing yards Week 1, the team could soon consider a shift to rookie first-rounder Jaxson Dart.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Week 2 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Robinson had a typical Robinson game in Week 1 at Washington with six catches for 55 yards on eight targets. He should continue to be a good source of receptions and helpful in PPR, and he could be a No. 3 Fantasy receiver in deeper leagues. Russell Wilson will remain the starter for the Giants in Week 2 at Dallas, and we'll see what happens once Jaxson Dart eventually takes over. But Robinson's role should remain the same, and he's worth adding for 1 percent of your remaining FAB.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Six catches in Week 1 loss
Rotowire
Robinson caught six of eight targets for 55 yards in Sunday's 21-6 loss to the Commanders.
Robinson averaged 41.1 yards on 8.2 targets per game in 2024, so his Week 1 stat line wasn't far from his customary production. Whether the Giants stick with veteran Russell Wilson in Week 2 against the Cowboys or turn to rookie first-round pick Jaxson Dart under center after Sunday's ugly performance on offense, Robinson will continue to offer a high floor due to his significant involvement on short passes but have a limited ceiling due to his lack of downfield contributions.

Giants' Wan'Dale Robinson: Secures one catch Saturday
Rotowire
Robinson hauled in one of two targets for six yards in Saturday's 31-12 preseason victory versus the Jets.
As with most of New York's key players, Robinson's time on the field was brief -- he played just seven offensive snaps, a bit fewer than fellow WR roster locks Darius Slayton (10) and Jalin Hyatt (11). Nonetheless, Robinson was the only member of that trio to get multiple targets, and his lone catch came on a short hookup with Russell Wilson. Robinson got a healthy 140 targets and caught 93 of them last season, though he averaged only 7.5 YPC. Malik Nabers (toe/shoulder/back) hasn't yet played in a preseason game, but he's expected to get the lion's share of attention among New York's receiving corps again in 2025. That should leave Robinson, Slayton and (to a lesser extent) Hyatt competing for looks from a new QB room that features Wilson, Jameis Winston and rookie Jaxson Dart.
