Kenny Golladay suffered a knee injury, knocking him from Sunday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys, and creating a void in the NY Giants’ receiving corps

With Kenny Golladay being ruled out for the remainder of this weeks matchup against the Cowboys the Giants are going to need to change things up in order to have a chance to win this game.

A part of this change involves getting the ball to first round pick Kadarius Toney. Toney has looked electric these last two weeks, tallying 6 receptions for 78 yards last week against the Saints, and 6 receptions for 121 yards so far in this game.

Making defender miss play after play, Toney has a chance to solidify his role in the offense as a top receiver in the depth chart.

That is however, if Jason Garrett continues to draw up plays for him, alongside Mike Glennon’s ability as a QB.

The best way to utilize Toney is to get him in the open field no matter how far the throw is.

Whether it be a short simple pass for Glennon to throw, or a deep ball, Toney has to be given chances to make a play happen.

Kadarius Toney has proven he can be a great WR in this league. If the Giants want a chance to turn this game around they need to give him the ball. Plain and simple.
