Gunner Olszewski Won't Play Against Commanders in Week 15

Sunday, December 14, 11:45 AM

New York Giants wide receiver Gunner Olszewski (concussion) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 15 contest against the Washington Commanders. He had been listed as questionable and won't suit up despite logging a full practice on Friday. Olszewski has primarily played on special teams lately, so his absence won't have a major impact on the Giants' offense or fantasy football. Look for Devin Singletary to step up as New York's primary kick returner this week.

Kevin Austin Jr. News

Kevin Austin Jr. is an Intriguing Option for Week 18

Sunday, January 4, 8:27 AM

New Orleans Saints wide receiver Kevin Austin Jr. is expected to have an expanded role in Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons. The Saints will be without Chris Olave (illness) and Mason Tipton (groin) for the regular-season finale. The absence of those players should push Austin into the No. 1 wideout role in this offense. With all the injuries to the Saints' wideouts, Dante Pettis should also see an increase in target share on Sunday. Austin made himself known to the league when he hauled in four receptions for 52 yards and a touchdown in Week 17's win over the Tennessee Titans. Austin was able to do that with Olave healthy for that game, which means he should be able to produce more without him this weekend. Fantasy managers with something on the line this week can use Austin as a FLEX play, or in DFS contests, might want to target Austin as he's priced at only $3,400 on DraftKings.
