NFL trade deadline 2024 live updates: Tracker, deals, grades and league news

Let’s take a look at the offensive snap counts from the Giants’ 27-22 loss to the Commanders on Sunday to see what we can learn:

-Tyrone Tracy Jr. (72% of the snaps) remains the clear RB1. He had another solid game despite the lack of explosives that have defined his game this season. He finished with 16 carries for 66 yards. Devin Singletary (28%) showed some juice on his seven carries for 33 yards.

-Rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers (95%) had one target in the first half and didn’t tally a catch until the third quarter after torching the Commanders in Week 2. They peppered him while playing catch-up, but he only totaled 59 yards on nine catches. He’s averaging just 10.1 yards per catch. It’s another sign of how lifeless this passing game is. Managing his frustration if this continues will be a top priority.

Darius Slayton (92%) left late with a concussion. That could complicate any trade negotiations. But I don’t see the Giants trading their most reliable player from an offense that’s barely functional with him.

The stat lines for Wan’Dale Robinson (72%) stat lines are getting more unbelievable each week. On Sunday, he tallied three catches for 10 yards. That’s the second time in three weeks he’s averaged under four yards per catch. He’s had five games under seven yards per catch. His 6.9 yards per catch average ranks 82nd of 82 qualifying WRs. The Giants drafted him 43rd in 2022 with a specific vision for his role. This can’t be it.

Jalin Hyatt (6%) played four snaps when Slayton was out. He so no targets for the third time this season. He has one catch for six yards all season. The Giants traded a fourth-round pick to move up in the third round for him last year.

-The Giants mixed their other tight ends in a bit more, but it was still Theo Johnson’s (85%) show. Johnson salvaged a rough receiving day with the late 35-yard TD catch. Those seam passes need to become a bigger part of the offense.

The only other target to a TE was Chris Manhertz’s (25%) impressive 2-yard TD catch.

-LT Chris Hubbard (100%) got beat too cleanly on the disastrous screen fumble. Otherwise, the O-line was fine. But that’s a big “otherwise.” Evan Neal (2%) played his first snap from scrimmage as a jumbo TE on the Manhertz TD.
