Fields caught four of five targets for 83 yards in Sunday's 27-21 overtime win over Houston.
In J.J. McCarthy's first start of the season, Fields had his best performance as a pro, capping his day with a 47-yard catch and run in the first quarter. The rookie wideout set a new career high in both receiving yards and catches after hauling in exactly two passes in each of his first six games for the Giants. Fields will head into the Giants' bye with a 16-248-1 line on 30 targets before facing the Eagles in Week 9.

Giants' Malachi Fields: Catches both targets vs. Washington
Rotowire
Fields hauled in both of his targets for 20 yards during the Giants' 27-27 tie with the Commanders on Sunday.
The rookie third-rounder has caught exactly two passes in each of the first five games of his NFL career, and he's turned that into 146 yards and a touchdown (on 17 targets). Fields' 64 offensive snaps were second-most on the Giants on Sunday, but he's well below both Malik Nabers and Isaiah Likely on Jameis Winston's priority target list in the passing game. The Giants will stay home for Week 6 against the Saints on Oct. 18.

Giants' Malachi Fields: Another two grabs in loss
Rotowire
Fields brought in two of six targets for 30 yards in the Giants' 28-6 loss to the Rams on Monday night.
Fields finished third in receptions and second in targets for the Giants on a night when Jaxson Dart (knee) exited after just one series. One of Fields' catches came during that opening drive, as he secured a 14-yard grab on third down to move the chains. The rookie third-round pick has enjoyed a solid complementary role over his first two NFL games, posting a 4-55-0 line on 10 targets. Fields is slotting in ahead of veteran Darnell Mooney on the depth chart heading into a Week 3 home matchup against the Titans on Sunday.

Giants' Malachi Fields: Two catches in regular-season debut
Rotowire
Fields caught two of four targets for 25 yards during Sunday night's 28-20 victory over the Cowboys.
Fields was on the field for 50 of the team's 69 total offensive snaps in his regular-season debut, and he appears to be settling in as the Giants' No. 2 option at wide receiver behind Malik Nabers. The 23-year-old has a sizable 6-foot-4 frame, and he could continue to garner more looks moving forward as he gets more comfortable at the NFL level.

Giants' Malachi Fields: Snagged by Giants
Rotowire
The Giants selected Fields in the third round of the 2026 NFL Draft, 74th overall.
The Giants traded up with the Browns for the 74th pick in order to bring Fields into a wide receiver room that lost Wan'Dale Robinson to the Titans in free agency but features Malik Nabers (knee) and Darius Slayton. Fields spent the first four years of his college career with Virginia before transferring to Notre Dame in 2025, though he saw his production dip in his lone season with the Fighting Irish, finishing with 36 catches for 630 yards and five touchdowns across 12 games. Fields is a physical wideout with a 6-foot-4, 220-pound frame that he can use to his advantage against smaller corners, but he also displayed his speed with a 6.98-second three-cone time at the NFL Combine. He has the size and catch radius to serve as a competent WR2 for the Giants behind Nabers.
