Logging his first game action since Week 11 of last season, Robinson was able to record a solid catch total despite Daniel Jones' quiet night. The second-year pro's reception tally was second only to that of Parris Campbell's for the Giants on the night, and Robinson should have a chance to serve as one of the top downfield threats in New York's air attack as the season unfolds and his knee gets back to full strength.

Logging his first game action since Week 11 of last season, Robinson was able to record a solid catch total despite Daniel Jones' quiet night. The second-year pro's reception tally was second only to that of Parris Campbell's for the Giants on the night, and Robinson should have a chance to serve as one of the top downfield threats in New York's air attack as the season unfolds and his knee gets back to full strength.
Banks already had an X-ray done, which came back negative. Still, the exact nature and extent of the injury are unclear, though there should be further news after the imaging is done Friday.
Waller co-led the team in targets but finished with his lowest yardage total in the first three games of the season. The veteran tight end was also the intended target on Daniel Jones' final pass of the night, one that resulted in an interception by the 49ers' Talanoa Hufanga with 3:48 remaining. Waller's production will naturally be inexorably tied to Jones moving forward, particularly concerning when considering how poorly the quarterback has played for all but the second half of the Week 2 comeback win over the Cardinals.
Slayton's yardage total, modest as it was, set the pace for the Giants on the night, and he also tied with Parris Campbell and Darren Waller for the team lead in targets. The veteran speedster also recorded the second-longest catch of the night for New York (17 yards), but like the rest of the team's air attack, he was victimized by Daniel Jones' mediocre play. Slayton has three catches apiece in each of his first three contests, a number he'll look to improve on against a vulnerable Seahawks secondary in a Week 4 home matchup on Monday night, Oct. 2.
Jones was only sacked twice and picked off once, but he was hit an additional four times unofficially and also limited to a microscopic 4.3 yards per attempt. The veteran signal-caller spread the ball around to seven different players, yet no Giants pass catcher managed to total more than 32 receiving yards. Jones has now put together a worrisome body of work in essentially 10 of his first 12 quarters of the season, particularly concerning when factoring in the financial commitment made to him by the franchise this offseason. Jones and his teammates will be trying to stave off a 1-3 start when they tangle with the Seahawks in a Week 4 home matchup on Monday night, Oct. 2.
Stepping in for Saquon Barkley (ankle), Breida somewhat unsurprisingly ended up with sparse opportunities on the ground against a 49ers team that overmatched the Giants on both sides of the ball. The veteran did manage to salvage his fantasy night to an extent with an eight-yard touchdown rush with 10 minutes remaining in the third quarter, his first rushing score since Week 11 of last season. A report earlier Thursday indicated Barkley's injury is specifically a high-ankle sprain, which portends a potential multi-game absence. However, whether Breida will have another shot as the primary early-down back in a Week 4 home matchup against the Seahawks on Monday night, Oct. 2 remains to be seen.
Neal appeared to roll his ankle while attempting to make a tackle after Daniel Jones was picked off toward the end of the game. The severity and exact nature of the injury are unclear, but he did not retake the field.
Davidson logged one tackle Thursday before he went down with an elbow injury during the third quarter. The 26-year-old also totaled just one tackle while making his season debut Week 2 against Arizona. Davidson's absence will leave the Giants with just four available defensive linemen between A'Shawn Robinson, Dexter Lawrence, Leonard Williams and Rakeem Nunez-Roches.
