Bellinger finished Sunday's loss to the Rams with four catches on four targets for 39 yards.

EDGE Analysis

Darren Waller logged more targets (six), catches (five) and yards (51) than Bellinger, but the latter still had a reasonably productive performance. Bellinger's longest catch went for 18 yards, and he also had a 14-yard reception that he immediately followed with a nine-yard catch on the following play. Waller has undoubtedly been the better fantasy asset when healthy this season, but Bellinger has come on strong even with Waller able to suit up over the past two weeks, putting up an 8-82-0 line on nine targets. The Giants have little to play for in their season finale against Philadelphia next weekend, so the team could opt to relax the veteran Waller's workload, which could benefit Bellinger to some extent against a defense that has been middle-of-the-pack against tight ends this season.

Bellinger finished Monday's loss to the Eagles with four catches on five targets for 43 yards.

EDGE Analysis

Primary tight end Darren Waller was healthy for the contest, though he and Bellinger logged an equal number of offensive snaps (40). Bellinger was somewhat surprisingly the more productive pass catcher, finishing second on New York in both receptions (four) and receiving yards (43). The former total was a season high for Bellinger, while the latter tied a season-best mark. Though this was Bellinger's best game of the season, Waller remains the better option for fantasy purposes.

Bellinger caught both of his targets or 13 yards in Sunday's 24-6 Week 15 loss to New Orleans.

EDGE Analysis

Bellinger worked as New York's starting tight end while Waller was on IR with a hamstring injury between Week 9 and Week 14, but he returned to a backup role with the latter returning Sunday. Bellinger averaged a modest 2.2 receptions for 27.6 yards during his five-game starting stint, and he wasn't far off those numbers while working behind Waller against the Saints. Waller appeared to come out of the contest in good health, so Bellinger should again see limited receiving opportunities next Monday against the Eagles.

Bellinger (illness) is active for Monday's contest against the Packers, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

EDGE Analysis

The Giants held Bellinger out of drills Friday and Saturday due to an illness and handed him a questionable designation for Week 14. In the lead up to Monday's game, the team didn't elevate a tight end from the practice squad, indicating that Bellinger was in line to be available. Indeed, that has come to pass, meaning he should be good for his typical workload (85-93 percent of the offensive snaps) from the previous five games with Darren Waller (hamstring) sidelined. So far, that has yielded a modest 9-123-0 line on 11 targets for Bellinger during that span.

Bellinger (illness) is listed as questionable for Monday's matchup against the Packers, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.

EDGE Analysis

Bellinger has registered close to 90 percent of the team's offensive snaps dating back to Week 8, so if he's unable to go it would be a major strain on the team's tight end depth. Expect Lawrence Cager to receive the bulk of the opportunities if the 23-year-old is unable to play.

Bellinger didn't practice Friday due to an illness, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

EDGE Analysis

Assuming the ailment isn't too significant, Bellinger could still return to the field Saturday for the Giants' final Week 14 practice, which would clear up any concern about his status heading into Monday's game against Green Bay. While Darren Waller (hamstring) has been sidelined for the Giants' last four games before the team's Week 13 bye, Bellinger had served as New York's top tight end and compiled a 9-123-0 receiving line on 10 targets. The Giants have yet to designate Waller for return from injured reserve as of Friday, so Bellinger will presumably be in store for another sizable snap count Monday if he can overcome the illness.

Bellinger caught all three of his targets for 38 yards Sunday in a 31-19 victory versus the Commanders.

EDGE Analysis

Bellinger finished third on the Giants in receiving yards, with his 26-yard reception early in the fourth quarter accounting for most of his total and helping to set up a Saquon Barkley receiving touchdown. Bellinger has stepped in as New York's top tight end over the past three weeks with Darren Waller (hamstring) on IR, and he's accounted fairly well for himself with an average of 2.7 catches for 38.3 yards over that span. Bellinger isn't going to set the fantasy world on fire, but he's at least established a decent floor as a fill-in for however long Waller remains out.

Bellinger caught two of three targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 49-17 loss to the Cowboys.

EDGE Analysis

The tight end actually led the Giants in receiving yards on the day, as undrafted rookie quarterback Tommy DeVito managed only 86 passing yards. Bellinger also lost a chance to have a better fantasy day when No. 2 TE Lawrence Cager caught a 10-yard touchdown in the second half. Darren Waller (hamstring) won't be eligible to return from IR until after the team's Week 13 bye, but with DeVito under center, Bellinger doesn't figure to offer much production, even if he continues to start at tight end.

Bellinger corralled all three of his targets for 43 yards in Sunday's 30-6 loss to Las Vegas.

EDGE Analysis

Bellinger's three targets ranked fifth behind Saquon Barkley and the Giants' three starting receivers, but the tight end did more with less and finished second in yardage for New York on Sunday. Starting quarterback Daniel Jones (knee) went down early in this contest and had to be replaced by backup Tommy DeVito, who was already replacing Tyrod Taylor (ribs), who is currently on injured reserve. Bellinger had been backing up Darren Waller (hamstring) prior to the latter being placed on injured reserve Saturday, so fantasy managers in need of a serviceable tight end could take a look at the second-year backup while Waller mends on IR. Bellinger projects to be the starter against Dallas next Sunday.

Bellinger is lined up to work as the Giants' starting tight end for an extended period with Darren Waller (hamstring) expected to miss several weeks, per Art Stapleton of The Bergen Record.

EDGE Analysis

Bellinger worked almost exclusively as a starter as a rookie last season, but he's taken a back seat for the most part in 2023 with New York signing Waller in the offseason. However, Waller suffered a hamstring injury in Sunday's loss to the Jets and has indicated that he's likely to miss multiple contests. That should push Bellinger into a more prominent role, though he shouldn't be expected to match Waller's success as a pass catcher. Daniel Jones (neck) is expected to return to action Sunday against Las Vegas after missing each of New York's past three games, which should boost the outlook of Bellinger and the team's entire pass-catching corps. Still, Bellinger averaged a modest 2.5 catches for 22.3 yards over 12 contests working with Jones as the team's top TE last year, so expectations for his production in Waller's stead should be tempered.
