The New York Giants have ruled out Paul Perkins against the Denver Broncos in Week 6.
Paul Perkins injury update: How to handle Giants RB going forward
Paul Perkins has been a major disappointment this season, which is the story of the 2017 Giants.

Perkins is battling a rib injury that kept him sidelined in Week 5. The Giants are just a mess all over on offense, especially with the ground game. No running back has been able to establish himself, especially Perkins. He’s been unable to do anything behind this putrid Giants offensive line.
Against the Buccaneers in Week 4, Perkins mustered up just 13 yards on nine carries. He has averaged under 2.5 yards per carry in all four games this season and has yet to reach the end zone.
Fantasy impact: With Perkins out, the Giants will rely on Shane Vereen, Orleans Darkwa, and Wayne Gallman against a stout Broncos defense. Don’t bother playing any of them until one can break from the pack (if that ever happens), and drop Perkins from all of your fantasy teams.
