Giants' Darnell Mooney: Leading receiver in loss
Mooney caught two of three targets for 48 yards in Monday night's 28-6 loss to the Rams.
Mooney led the team with 48 receiving yards in what was a disappointing outing for New York's offense. Starting quarterback Jaxson Dart suffered a knee injury on the first possession of the game, and he is expected to be sidelined for the foreseeable future. Mooney will look to continue to build chemistry with new starter Jameis Winston in Week 3 against the Titans.

Giants' Darnell Mooney: Two catches in Week 1
Mooney caught both of his targets for 27 yards in Sunday night's 28-20 victory over Dallas.
Mooney was on the field for 39 of the team's 69 total offensive snaps, 11 fewer than rookie Malachi Fields. He appears to have settled in as New York's primary slot receiver as the regular season gets underway, and veteran Odell Beckham may be his biggest competition for the role moving forward.

Giants' Darnell Mooney: Could have path to No. 3 role sans Austin
Mooney could have a chance to open the season as the Giants' No. 3 receiver after Calvin Austin (knee) sustained a torn ACL in Tuesday's practice, Jordan Ranaan of ESPN.com reports.
Before injuring his right knee, Austin looked primed to play a significant role as the Giants' slot receiver, but the team is now expected to take a committee approach to that position in the wake of his season-ending injury, per Dan Duggan of The Athletic. Along with Mooney, fellow wideouts Malik Nabers (knee) and Odell Beckham and tight end Isaiah Likely could also get more chances to work in the slot. Ranaan notes that Mooney -- who produced a 32-443-1 receiving line on 72 targets in 15 games with the Falcons in 2025 -- turned in one of his best practices of the summer Tuesday, which could prompt the coaching staff to carve out more snaps for him with the first-team offense.

Giants' Darnell Mooney: Favorite for slot duties
Mooney is expected to work as the Giants' primary option in the slot, Alex Smith of SNY.tv reports.
Mooney was limited to 443 receiving yards with the Falcons in 2025, but he has recorded at least 992 receiving yards in two of his six NFL regular seasons. Slot receiver Wan'Dale Robinson, who signed with the Titans in free agency, led the Giants with 1,014 receiving yards in 2025. Mooney seems to have a defined role lined up while Darius Slayton (abdomen), Calvin Austin, Malachi Fields, JuJu Smith-Schuster and Odell Beckham compete for reps on the outside opposite Malik Nabers (knee), who is expected to reclaim a starting role once healthy.
