Darren Waller Has No Injury Status Heading Into Week 2

Darren Waller Has No Injury Status Heading Into Week 2

one year ago

New York Giants tight end Darren Waller (hamstring) was limited in practice on Friday but was removed from the final injury report heading into Sunday's Week 2 matchup against the Arizona Cardinals on the road. Waller is dealing with a hamstring injury to the same leg that caused him to miss time with the Las Vegas Raiders last year, but the 31-year-old insists it's nothing remotely as serious as what he dealt with in 2022. His missed practice this week was mostly for rest purposes, and Waller vowed to be ready to go this Sunday. Waller played 89% of the offensive snaps in the Week 1 blowout loss to the Dallas Cowboys and led the team with three catches for 36 yards. For now, his hamstring injury shouldn't worry fantasy managers too much. He'll be a top-five TE1 play as the G-Men look to bounce back from an embarrassing season opener.
