2024 Fantasy Outlook
Banks enjoyed a decent rookie campaign after being taken 24th overall by the Giants in the 2023 NFL Draft, working as a starter throughout the season and finishing with 64 tackles (53 solo) and 11 passes defensed, including two interceptions, before missing the final two weeks with a shoulder injury. He's in line to reprise a starting role at cornerback in his second NFL campaign and will look to take a leap forward under new defensive coordinator Shane Bowen. Read Past Outlooks
Dealing with rib injury
Banks injured his ribs during Sunday's 30-7 loss to the Buccaneers and was estimated as a limited practice participant Monday.
ANALYSIS
Banks underwent X-rays after Sunday's loss, and the imaging revealed that the 2023 first-round pick suffered an injury to his ribs. Monday's session was a walkthrough, so Banks' status for Thursday's game against the Cowboys will become more clear over the next two days. Through 11 regular-season gams, Banks has logged 43 tackles (33 solo), seven pass defenses and one forced fumble.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Giants liked Banks enough to trade up a spot to nab him in the 2023 NFL Draft, and the cornerback out of Maryland should take on an immediate starting role for New York. Banks is an exceptional athlete who has both the size (6-2, 205) and speed (4.35 40 time) to develop into an elite NFL defender. The 22-year-old likely will line up opposite Adoree' Jackson, giving New York a second talented corner who excels in man-to-man coverage, which is a crucial component of coordinator Wink Martindale's blitz-happy defensive scheme.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Makes strides during spring work
Banks, the Giants' rookie 24th overall pick, worked himself up to the first-team defense over the course of OTAs and minicamp this spring, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Banks opened on the second-team defense during the Giants' first OTA session open to the media, but he quickly earned a promotion with his talent and athleticism. Defensive coordinator Wink Martindale has already taken note of the fact Banks possesses a very valuable intangible for a cornerback as well, namely, a short memory for unfavorable plays.
