What is Malik Nabers’ value with Tommy DeVito starting in Week 12?

Coming off their fifth-straight loss, the Giants have decided to make a change at quarterback and start Tommy DeVito ($4,000) instead of Daniel Jones this Sunday vs. the Buccaneers. Malik Nabers’ ($7,400) fantasy production has dwindled after a hot start to his season due to Jones’ poor play, and while Nabers and DeVito have yet to play a snap together this season, there is a chance the quarterback change revitalizes Nabers.

In his six starts for the Giants last season, DeVito threw for seven touchdowns and only one interception. On the other hand, Jones has struggled with just eight passing touchdowns and seven interceptions in his 10 starts this season.

Nabers leads the NFL with a massive 36.4% target share, and there is no reason to suggest this elite volume will stop with DeVito under center. Nabers is far and away New York’s best weapon and is in a terrific spot this Sunday against a Tampa Bay squad which ranks second in zone coverage rate this season.

Nabers hasn’t cracked 20 fantasy points in four consecutive games, but this matchup with the Buccaneers is a prime spot for him to get back on track. He is a terrific gamble to take in large tournaments this weekend, as most DFS players will likely avoid Nabers given the uncertainty surrounding DeVito.
