Bobby Okereke Still Out

Giants LB Bobby Okereke will miss his third straight game Sunday against the Falcons because of a back injury. Okereke has yet to even practice over that span, which doesn't bode well for his chances of returning for Week 17.

LB Micah McFadden has delivered two straight 11-tackle games as the Giants' lead LB and makes for a strong IDP play once again.

Rookie Darius Muasau graduated to 100% playing time last week for the first time all season (after playing 76% the week before). He's not nearly as good a bet for fantasy numbers as McFadden, though.

We'll see about Okereke's status heading into Week 17.
