Darren Waller (groin) returning to Giants practice Thursday

New York Giants tight end Darren Waller will practice on Thursday, per head coach Brian Daboll.

What It Means:

Waller will return after resting on Wednesday. He set season-highs across the board last week, with 8 catches for 86 yards on 11 targets. Waller will try to score his first touchdown of the season in Week 6 versus the Buffalo Bills on Sunday night.

Waller is the TE9 in numberFire's Week 6 rankings and our models project him for 7.5 FanDuel points, with 6.3 targets, 4.3 receptions, and 45.9 yards. The Bills are allowing the third-fewest FanDuel points per game to opposing tight ends this season and their pass defense ranks first in numberFire's opponent-adjusted NEP model.
