    New York Giants RB Shane Vereen (calf) was limited during practice Friday, Sept. 29, and is not on the injury report for Week 4.

    Huddle Up: Vereen likely will continue to be used as mostly a receiver out of the backfield against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers but probably would not be a great option for fantasy owners.

    New York Giants RB Shane Vereen (calf) did not participate in practice Thursday, Sept. 28.

    Huddle Up: It appears that Vereen may be in danger of missing the Week 4 game because of the injury, so owners should monitor the situation. He has been more involved in the passing game so far this season but only has 129 total yards in three games. Paul Perkins is probably the only Giants running back with fantasy value and should be considered a flex option.

    New York Giants RB Shane Vereen (calf) did not practice Wednesday, Sept. 27.

    Huddle Up: Vereen is nursing a calf injury, while Orleans Darkwa was off the field due to a back ailment. If one or neither can go, or they're limited in Week 4, it would mean Paul Perkins would see more touches.

  • Posted: 9/24/2017 4:36pm ET

    New York Giants RB Shane Vereen posted two catches for 18 yards in Week 3 against the Eagles and he rushed just once for five yards.

    Huddle Up: Vereen was limited to three touches, but he still managed a critical mistake running out of bounds in a key situation to give Philadelphia extra time on the clock. Just three touches helps no fantasy players.

  • Posted: 9/18/2017 9:14pm ET

    New York Giants RB Shane Vereen rushed six times for a team-high 28 yards in Week 2 against the Detroit Lions on Monday, Sept. 18, and he added three receptions for 27 yards.

    Huddle Up: Vereen leading the team in rushing tells you a little something about how the night went for the G-Men. Vereen isn't known for his rushing, but for his hands out of the backfield. He is a tremendous PPR option in most fantasy leagues, but not terribly valuable in some standard formats. The Giants travel to Philadelphia in Week 3.

  • Posted: 9/10/2017 10:09pm ET

    New York Giants RB Shane Vereen did not have a rush attempt in Week 1 at Dallas, but he was able to contribute with nine receptions for 51 yards on 10 targets.

    Huddle Up: The run game isn't where Vereen is effective, but he does have a tremendous hands out of the backfield. Vereen remains a solid RB3 or flex option in most PPR formats. He'll look to carry over the momentum into Week 2 against Detroit.

  • Posted: 6/9/2017 11:21am ET

    New York Giants RB Shane Vereen (triceps) is taking a slower approach this offseason after he admitted returning prematurely from a torn triceps last year.

    Huddle Up: Vereen will likely be playing behind Paul Perkins and splitting time with Wayne Gallman, among others. He should be mostly used in passing-down situations and thus has more value in PPR leagues as a late-round option.

  • Posted: 5/19/2017 6:54pm ET

    New York Giants RB Shane Vereen (triceps) is fully recovered after tearing his triceps twice last season.

    Huddle Up: Vereen's role is limited to passing downs, but as much as the Giants throw the ball, he is still a RB4 in PPR formats with potential as a flex option.
