News

  • Out Monday

    Ellison (concussion) has been ruled out for Monday's game against the Eagles, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: The Giants' decision to rule out fellow tight end Evan Engram (foot) might have been a surprise, but Ellison was never expected to play after failing to practice all week. As a result, Kaden Smith will be in line to lead the position group once again after turning in a six-reception, 70-yard receiving day in the 31-13 loss to the Packers in Week 13.

  • Still sidelined by concussion

    Ellison (concussion) didn't practice Friday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Analysis: Ellison's continued absence from practice makes him unlikely to play in Monday's game against the Eagles. Meanwhile, fellow tight end Evan Engram (foot) has been practicing in limited fashion and is trending toward suiting up in Week 14. Ellison has missed the past two games.

  • No practice Thursday

    Ellison (concussion) did not practice Thursday, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.

    Analysis: Ellison has missed two straight contests due to a lingering head injury, and he's yet to make tangible progress in his recovery. He'll need to fully clear the league's five-step concussion protocol before suiting up. With top tight end Evan Engram (foot) hopeful to retake the field versus Philadelphia on Monday, Ellison could be relegated to a depth role when he does return.

  • Out for a second straight week

    Ellison (concussion) won't play in Sunday's game against the Packers, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Ellison will miss a second straight game while top tight end Evan Engram (foot) misses his third in a row. The two absences should clear the way for rookie Kaden Smith to lead the Giants' tight-end group in Week 13. Smith played 98 percent of the snaps on offense in last week's 19-14 loss to the Bears, bringing in five of six targets for 17 yards and a touchdown.

  • DNP on Thursday

    Ellison (concussion) was held out of practice Thursday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

    Analysis: With no noticeable progress through the protocol for head injuries, Ellison is on pace to log a second straight absence Sunday against the Packers. The Giants may also be without Evan Engram (foot), so Kaden Smith and Scott Simonson are poised to hold down the fort at tight end yet again this weekend.

  • Works on the side Wednesday

    Ellison (concussion) worked off to the side during Wednesday's practice, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

    Analysis: With both Ellison and Evan Engram (foot) still not participating in practice, the Giants' only healthy options at tight end are Kaden Smith and Scott Simonson. Ellison will still have a few more days to clear the five-step concussion protocol before the Giants face the Packers on Sunday.

  • Won't face Bears

    Coach Pat Shurmur confirmed Friday that Ellison (concussion) will not suit up against the Bears on Sunday, Paul Schwartz of the New York Post reports.

    Analysis: Ellison will miss his first game of the season as he nurses a head injury. With Evan Engram (foot) also ruled out for Sunday's contest, the Giants will be forced to proceed with Kaden Smith and Scott Simonson as the only healthy tight ends on the 53-man roster.

  • Not likely to play Sunday

    Coach Pat Shurmur said that Ellison won't practice Thursday and relayed that it's unlikely the tight end will clear the concussion protocol in advance of Sunday's game against the Bears, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

    Analysis: With Evan Engram (foot) also iffy for the contest, the Giants' top healthy tight ends at the moment are Kaden Smith and Scott Simonson.

  • Held out of practice

    Ellison (concussion) isn't practicing Wednesday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

    Analysis: With Evan Engram (foot) also sidelined, Scott Simonson and Kaden Smith were the only tight ends available for practice. The Giants still have some hope for Engram and/or Ellison to be available for Sunday's game in Chicago.

  • Gets some work in Monday

    Ellison (concussion) was spotted running on the side during the media-access portion of Monday's practice, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

    Analysis: Ellison will look to clear the NFL's concussion protocol in the coming days, with his Week 12 status gaining added import, given that fellow tight end Evan Engram (foot) wasn't at practice at all Monday.

  • Diagnosed with concussion

    Ellison was diagnosed with a concussion after Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Jets, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

    Analysis: The head injury didn't result in Ellison's early removal from the contest, but he only played 49 percent of the offensive snaps and caught three balls for 42 yards while stepping in as a replacement for starting tight end Evan Engram (foot). With Ellison entering the concussion protocol and Engram still hurting, the Giants could be down both of their top two tight ends in the Week 11 game against the Bears. Rookie Kaden Smith is the lone healthy tight end on the roster.

  • Nothing special as starter

    Ellison caught all three of his targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 34-27 loss to the Jets.

    Analysis: Though Ellison set a new season high for receiving yards while usual starter Evan Engram sat out due to a foot injury, fantasy managers need not rush to the waiver wire for the tight end. Engram will have an opportunity to heal up during New York's Week 11 bye, and Ellison showed that he's not a must-own option even when Engram sits.

  • Primed to start Week 10

    Ellison is expected to start at tight end in Sunday's game against the Jets with teammate Evan Engram (foot) ruling himself out for the contest, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Ellison previously filled in for Engram in the Giants' loss to the Patriots in Week 6, when he hauled in three of a season-high seven targets for 30 yards. Along with Engram, the Giants were also without Sterling Shepard (concussion) in Week 6, and both look on track to sit out again Week 10. With that in mind, Ellison should again benefit from a boost in snaps and targets, putting him in consideration for fantasy lineups in a week with six teams on bye.

  • Snags two passes

    Ellison caught two of five targets for 17 yards in Monday's 37-18 loss to the Cowboys.

    Analysis: Ellison played 36 of 72 offensive snaps (50 percent), but Evan Engram (foot) -- who caught six passes for 48 yards -- continues to command a majority of the tight-end targets from Daniel Jones. Engram hurt his foot and was held out for the last few offensive series Monday, and coach Pat Shurmur wouldn't write it off as simply precautionary. Engram's status is worth monitoring in deep fantasy leagues ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Jets. In the one game Engram missed this year, Ellison…read more

  • Scores in loss

    Ellison caught both of his targets for 33 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's loss to the Cardinals.

    Analysis: Ellison notched his first touchdown of the season during Sunday's loss despite Evan Engram having returned to the starting lineup. He played only 39 percent of snaps on offense. Given that Ellison figures to continue playing a reserve role going forward, he'll be difficult to trust for fantasy purposes as long as Engram remains healthy.

  • Three receptions in spot start

    Ellison secured three of seven targets for 30 yards in the Giants' 35-14 loss to the Patriots on Thursday.

    Analysis: Ellison filled in as the starter for Evan Engram (knee), but as his final line indicates, the veteran tight end was modestly involved overall. Ellison was also the intended target on Daniel Jones' third interception of the night, which short-circuited a six-play, 48-yard drive that opened the second half. Ellison will return to his reserve tight end role as soon as Engram is healthy, which could be a week from Sunday in a Week 7 battle against the Cardinals.

  • Could start Thursday

    Ellison is likely to start at tight end in Thursday's game against the Patriots with Evan Engram (knee) ruled out, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Aside from Engram, Ellison is the only tight end on New York's roster with a reception this season. He's a likely candidate to play a regular role in the passing game as long as Engram remains sidelined, though reserve Garrett Dickerson should earn some snaps as well. Of course, it'll be difficult to count on Ellison or any of the other depth options in the New York passing game while rookie quarterback Daniel Jones matches up against a formidable New England defense.

  • Catches three passes

    Ellison caught three of four targets for 24 yards Sunday against the Redskins.

    Analysis: Ellison's the blocking TE behind Evan Engram, but he's useful as a pass catcher on occasion. Golden Tate's return in Week 5 will probably shrink Ellison's already modest role in the passing game, however.

  • Brings in one pass

    Ellison caught his only target for three yards in Sunday's 32-31 win over the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Ellison now has a catch in every game this season, totaling just 19 yards. The veteran tight end fantasy value is minimal, as third-year tight end Evan Engram is firing up a breakout campaign.

    Published: Mon, Sep 23 at 12:24pm by Rotowire.com

  • Has one catch in loss

    Ellison caught his only target, an eight-yard gain, during Sunday's 28-14 loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: One catch for eight yards is how Ellison has come out in each of the first two games of the season. The Giants, outside of some big plays by Saquon Barkley and TE1 Evan Engram, haven't gotten much done to start the season, necessitating the beginning of the Daniel Jones era. Jones looked promising in the preseason, but Ellison's role in the offense is unlikely to change substantially even if Jones proves to be an upgrade.

  • Makes one reception

    Ellison caught one of two targets for eight yards in Sunday's 35-17 loss to Dallas.

    Analysis: The 31-year-old played 22 offensive snaps in the season opener, clearly outpacing Eric Tomlinson (two snaps) as the top backup for Evan Engram. Ellison appears locked into his No. 2 role as long as Engram remains healthy.

  • Stands out in Engram's absence

    Ellison took advantage of Evan Engram's injury-related absence from June minicamp, Matt Lombardo of NJ.com reports.

    Analysis: Engram was sidelined with a minor hamstring injury that's expected to clear up before the start of training camp in late July. Meanwhile, Ellison made it through the offseason program in good health, after sitting out Week 17 of last season due to a concussion. He doesn't have any guaranteed money remaining on the final two seasons of his four-year, $18 million contract, but a lack of competition for the No. 2 job at tight end puts the 30-year-old in good position to keep his roster spot.

  • Out for season finale

    Ellison (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cowboys.

    Analysis: With a healthy Evan Engram back in the lineup, Ellison caught just two passes for 18 yards the past three weeks, averaging 28.3 snaps per game in a blocking-focused role. The 30-year-old will head into 2019 with two seasons remaining on a four-year, $18 million contract, and it won't come as any surprise if the Giants decide he's too expensive for a backup tight end. Ellison did help his case this season with career-high marks for catches (25) and receiving yards (272), despite missing two…read more

  • In concussion protocol

    Ellison (concussion) remains in the league-mandated protocol Thursday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

    Analysis: Ellison continues to nurse a head injury sustained during Sunday's loss to the Colts. The veteran did not practice Wednesday and is working with trainers on the side during Thursday's session. If Ellison were to sit out Week 17, Scott Simonson and Garrett Dickerson could receive increased roles behind Evan Engram.

  • Exits game with concussion

    Ellison is ruled out to return to Sunday's game against the Colts due to a concussion.

    Analysis: Ellison exited Sunday's contest during the first quarter, and will need to clear the league-mandated concussion protocol before eventually retaking the field. Scott Simonson will serve as the top backup to starting tight end Evan Engram as long as Ellison remains sidelined.

  • Shut out Sunday

    Ellison failed to haul in his lone target in Sunday's loss to the Titans.

    Analysis: It marks the second week in a row that Ellison has gone without a reception, as his offensive reps continue to drop. Evan Engram has been heavily involved in the offense since returning from a hamstring injury, leaving little room for Ellison in the game plan.

  • Practices in limited fashion

    Ellison (ankle) was a limited participant in Thursday's practice.

    Analysis: Per Dan Duggan of The Athletic, Ellison, who sat out Wednesday's practice, took part in individual drills in his return to work and looked to be running at full speed during the media-access portion of the session. Ellison would clear up most of the concern about the health of his sprained ankle by practicing again Friday in any capacity.

    Ellison (ankle) isn't expected to practice Wednesday, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: With Evan Engram (hamstring) returning from a two-game absence last weekend against the Redskins, Ellison saw his involvement take a hit. The two tight ends both played 33 of the Giants' 64 offensive snaps (52 percent), but Ellison drew no targets in the passing game while injuring his ankle along the way. The extent of Ellison's injury isn't known, but he would clear up any concern about his availability for Sunday's game against the Titans by returning to practice in some fashion Thursday or…read more

  • Suffers ankle injury

    Ellison injured his ankle during Sunday's 40-16 win over Washington, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Ellison has been surprisingly efficient with his opportunities in the passing game, but they're few and far between when Evan Engram is available, as was the case during Sunday's easy victory. Scott Simonson will fill Ellison's blocking role if the 30-year-old isn't available for Week 15 against Tennessee.

  • Returning to backup role

    Ellison is expected to return to a reserve role at tight end Sunday against the Redskins with Evan Engram (hamstring) cleared to play after missing the previous two contests, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: While Engram was out, Ellison played 92.5 percent of the Giants' offensive snaps, parlaying the spike in usage into eight receptions for 119 yards across 12 targets. Ellison's snap count will dip with Engram back in the fold, though Raanan notes that the latter will be deployed primarily in obvious passing scenarios. That will allow Ellison, a superior to blocker, to retain a healthy amount of playing time, but his fantasy viability will take a hit nonetheless.

  • Finishes second on team in targets

    Ellison caught four of seven targets for 42 yards in Sunday's 30-27 overtime win over the Bears.

    Analysis: With Evan Engram (hamstring) out for another contest, Ellison filled a three-down role (94 percent snap share) for the fifth time this season. The 30-year-old has averaged 3.2 catches for 40.8 yards on 4.8 targets in the five games Engram has either missed or barely played in this season, albeit with just one touchdown to show for the increased workload. The Giants do hope to get Engram back in the lineup for Week 14 at Washington, but there's no guarantee it actually happens.

  • Starting assignment on tap

    Ellison is expected to start and handle the bulk of the snaps at tight end Sunday against the Bears with the Giants ruling Evan Engram (hamstring) out for the contest, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.

    Analysis: After tweaking his hamstring in pregame warmups, Engram sat out the Week 12 loss to the Eagles, allowing Ellison to play 89 percent of the Giants' offensive snaps. Ellison parlayed the heightened workload into a career-high 77 yards on four receptions and drew six total targets on the day. Though running back Saquon Barkley and wide receivers Odell Beckham and Sterling Shepard will all rank ahead of him in the pass-catching hierarchy, Ellison should represent the clear fourth option in the…read more

  • Sets career high in yardage

    Ellison caught four of six targets for 77 yards during Sunday's 25-22 loss to the Eagles.

    Analysis: Ellison hadn't recorded more than three catches or 39 receiving yards in any game this season, but he was thrust into a larger role after Evan Engram hurt his hamstring in warmups, according to Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record. He responded with several sizable gains en route to a new career high in receiving yardage. It's unclear at this point if Engram will be sidelined next Sunday against the Bears, but Ellison could play a large role once again if he is.

  • Catches a pass

    Ellison caught his lone target for 12 yards during Sunday's 38-35 win over Tampa Bay.

    Analysis: From a points perspective, Sunday was the Giants' best game of the season. Still, Ellison failed to reach 20 yards for the fifth consecutive game. The veteran target should not be looked at for anything more than an underneath catch or two per game, even Sunday against a struggling Eagles pass defense.

  • Targeted once

    Ellison caught his lone target during Monday's 27-23 win over the 49ers, gaining six yards.

    Analysis: The performance was a good one for the Giants, who tied the team's second-highest point total of the season. What was good for the team wasn't necessarily good for Ellison, who was held under 20 yards for the fourth consecutive week. He's not involved enough in what has been a pretty feeble passing attack to garner much attention, even Sunday against Tampa Bay's bottom-five pass defense, giving up 292 yards per game.
