New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning has put up some decent fantasy numbers in 2017. He may, however, be without three of his top targets heading into Week 6. Odell Beckham Jr., Dwayne Harris, and Sterling Shepard are all dealing with injuries.
Fantasy football start/sit Week 6: What to do with Eli Manning
The Giants quarterback is shorthanded heading into Week 6. We break down the fantasy implications.

Fantasy impact: Not only is Manning going to be super shorthanded going into Sunday’s game, he’s also facing the Denver Broncos. A receiving corps full of bench players plus a top defense on the opposite side of the football is not good.
Sure, maybe Manning has a few tricks up his sleeve, but nobody should count on him driving the team to a huge win on the road. The Giants haven’t been able to win a game with everyone healthy.
Don’t be surprised if Manning gets dropped across fantasy leagues during the rest of the season. The Giants look like they’ll be out of the playoff race by the end of the month if they aren’t already.
Recommendation: Sit
