He scored twice in Week 3 and logged 10 catches for a career-best 127 yards and a score in Week 2.
Giants wide receiver Wan’Dale Robinson was limited in practice this week because of a heel injury. Darius Slayton, Jalin Hyatt, Bryce Ford-Wheaton and Ihmir Smith-Marsette are the other wide receivers on the Giants roster.
