NY Giants Wide Receivers

2020:

Starters: Sterling Shepard, Darius Slayton, and Golden Tate

Backups: C.J. Board, Austin Mack, and Dante Pettis

2021:

Starters: Kenny Golladay, Sterling Shepard, and Darius Slayton

Backups: John Ross, Dante Pettis, C.J. Board, and Austin Mack

Analysis:

The position group that will look the most different.

Gone is Golden Tate. Entering is Kenny Golladay and John Ross. This group needs to be the team’s most improved position group in 2021. If they aren’t, it will be a serious concern and major development for a team that invested over $85 million to revamp the receiving corps.
