With salsa-dancing Victor Cruz yet to take the field this year due to injury, Dwayne Harris has had a chance to emerge as a reliable option out of the slot for the Giants.
In a last-second loss to the Patriots on Sunday, Harris reeled in 6 of 9 targets for 82 yards and a touchdown against New England's ninth-ranked passing defense, resulting in an impressive 1.10 Reception NEP per target.
Starting from Week 4 onward, Harris has seen his snaps increase at a steady pace, resulting in 53.5 snaps per game over the last six games prior to this weeks contest with the Patriots. That trend should continue for Harris as he's shown he can produce when pressed into action: Harris has hauled in 10 of 19 targets and accounted for 3 receiving touchdowns over the past three weeks.
And while his efficiency on the year has been less than stellar -- he owned an unspectacular 0.65 Reception NEP per target on 31 targets going into Week 10 -- his increased usage and nose for the end zone makes him a nice stash this week in the event that Harris can continue to increase his target share on this team.
