Malik Nabers News
Friday, October 23, 6:36 PM
New York Giants wide receiver Malik Nabers has been on a tear lately and appears fully healthy entering Week 7. Over the past three weeks, Nabers has caught 29 of 42 targets for 398 yards and two touchdowns, averaging 22.1 half-PPR fantasy points per game. While the Giants are switching from Jameis Winston to J.J. McCarthy, Nabers continued to succeed with the former Vikings first-round pick, totaling four receptions for 95 yards in the fourth quarter. The quarterback change could end Nabers' hot streak and add risk, but it may not matter for the star receiver, who has been a volume machine. He faces the Houston Texans in Week 7, who have allowed the second-most fantasy points to wide receivers this season. Fantasy managers can still fire up Nabers as a solidified WR1, though he carries more risk if McCarthy struggles in his first start.

Woody Marks News
Saturday, October 24, 3:08 AM
Houston Texans running back Woody Marks is in a situation that sets him up to be very busy in his Week 7 matchup with the Giants, making him a solid option for fantasy football lineups. Marks will need to carry most of the workload in the backfield for Houston with David Montgomery (groin) and Jawhar Jordan (quad) both ruled out. Jordan stepped in with Montgomery out last week and had a good game in London, but this week, the team will be even more reliant on Marks. In each of the last two games, Marks has exactly 15 carries. He finished with 62 rushing yards against the Titans and 56 rushing yards against the Jaguars, but this week, he's in a more favorable matchup against the Giants, who have allowed six running back touchdowns in six games and have allowed at least 99 rushing yards to running backs in each of the last three weeks. With plenty of work in a favorable spot, Marks is the No. 14 RB in RotoBaller's rankings for this week, making him a strong RB2 in standard-sized leagues and a good starting option in almost all formats.
