Catches two passes Toney caught two of three targets for 16 yards Sunday against the Falcons.
Impact With Darius Slayton and Sterling Shepard suffering hamstring injuries, Toney could be in line for more work. The first-round rookie has dealt with nagging injuries himself, cutting into his readiness to make an early-season impact. Toney profiles best as a slot receiver, so he would have a clearer path to deliver fantasy value if Shepard in particular misses time.

No injury designation for Week 3 Toney (ankle) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Falcons, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Impact Toney was limited in practice Thursday but will be good to go for a juicy Week 3 matchup against a Falcons defense that's been torched for 40 points per game thus far. The rookie first-round pick has already started grumbling about his lack of usage, but perhaps a visit from the Falcons will be exactly what he and the Giants need to get going.

Limited by ankle injury The Giants added Toney to their injury report Thursday, listing him as a limited participant in practice due to an ankle issue, Zack Rosenblatt of The Newark Star-Ledger reports.
Impact The rookie receiver missed time in training camp with a hamstring injury, but he was cleared ahead of the season opener and has played in both of the Giants' first two games, logging 22 offensive snaps while recording two receptions for minus-2 yards. If Toney moves past the ankle injury ahead of Sunday's game against the Falcons, he'll likely have only a small role on offense.

No targets in Week 2 Toney wasn't targeted in Thursday's 30-29 loss to Washington.
Impact Toney totaled two receptions for minus-2 yards in his NFL debut last week, but he didn't get any looks while playing 28 percent of the team's offensive snaps Thursday. The 2021 first-rounder missed a significant portion of camp and has had a slow start to his professional career.

Modest pro debut Toney caught both of his targets but went for minus-2 yards in his professional debut Sunday against the Broncos.
Impact Toney missed quite a bit of training camp, so it could take a while before the first-rounder is fully up to speed and integrated into the offense.

Clear for pro debut Toney (hamstring) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game against the Broncos, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Impact The Giants capped Toney's practice reps all week as the rookie worked his way back from a hamstring issue that didn't allow him to suit up during the preseason. But the maintenance has done the trick, and he'll be out there Week 1 versus a tough Denver secondary. With Kenny Golladay (hamstring) also cleared to play, the team will have its top four wide receivers (also, Sterling Shepard and Darius Slayton) available for quarterback Daniel Jones on Sunday.

Manages another limited showing Toney (hamstring) was limited in practice Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Impact A hamstring injury has followed Toney into the regular season, but considering he's put together back-to-back practices -- albeit ones in which his reps were capped -- he seems to have a decent shot to make his pro debut Sunday against the Broncos. Friday's practice report may reveal as much for the 20th overall pick in the 2021 NFL Draft, but the Giants appear to be proceeding as though Toney will be available. Per Tom Rock of Newsday, offensive coordinator Jason Garrett said earlier Thursday that the team is planning to be "specific and purposeful" in how Toney is used Week 1, suggesting he'll have some plays designed for him despite the fact that he sits behind all of Kenny Golladay (hamstring), Sterling Shepard and Darius Slayton on the depth chart at receiver.

Logs limited practice Toney (hamstring) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Impact Toney is drawing closer to getting cleared for game action after a summer in which he had a bout with COVID-19 and also missed the preseason with an unknown injury. With the release of Wednesday's practice report, it was revealed to be a hamstring issue. In a receiving corps that's banged-up to start the season -- Kenny Golladay (knee, limited), Evan Engram (calf, DNP), Kyle Rudolph (foot, limited) and Kaden Smith (knee, limited) are the players in question -- Toney may be able to eke out his share of targets from Daniel Jones on Sunday against the Broncos, assuming he's available.

On practice field Wednesday Toney (undisclosed) took part in practice Wednesday, Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record reports.
Impact Toney hasn't exactly had a smooth summer as he gears up for his first pro campaign, contending with COVID-19 in late July and an undisclosed injury in August that sidelined him for the entire preseason. Still, the 20th overall pick in this year's draft ran routes at full speed last Wednesday and now seems to be gearing up for an appearance Week 1. The Giants will post their first injury report of the season later Wednesday, at which point his activity level will become known.
