News: 4 days agoFields caught all three of his targets for 34 yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 13-10 preseason loss to the Vikings.
Spin: The rookie wideout needed every inch of his 6-foot-4 frame on the Giants' lone TD of the afternoon. Early in the second quarter, Jaxson Dart got flushed out of the pocket and tossed up an off-balance 15-yard pass into the end zone that Fields skied to snag over 5-foot-10 linebacker Ivan Pace in coverage. Fields, a third-round pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, has a clear path to the No. 2 receiver job in New York, with veteran holdover Darius Slayton and former Steeler Calvin Austin as his main competition. Standing out as a red-zone threat to complement Malik Nabers might be Fields' best way to win it.
ESPN Fantasy Projection: Fields was selected by the Giants in the third round of April's draft. One of the biggest and strongest receivers in this rookie class, Fields figures to work as a perimeter, vertical target in the pros (career 13.3 aDOT during 49 collegiate games). Fields, who dropped just seven passes in college, handled a target share of, at least, 20% and air yard share of, at least, 30% during each of his final three collegiate seasons (two at Virginia, one at Notre Dame). Fields will battle Darnell Mooney, Darius Slayton and Calvin Austin III for New York's No. 2 receiver gig behind Malik Nabers. The rookie is no more than a late-round flier.
