2018 NFL Draft prospect profile: D.J. Chark, WR, LSU
For much of the 2017 season the New York Giants’ receiving corps looked more like what a team would field in the fourth quarter of a pre-season game than in a regular season game.
It’s rare that an entire position group can be changed in a single week, but that’s what happened after a disastrous Week 5 game that saw the Giants’ top four receivers suffer significant injuries (three landing on injured reserve). But even before that, the Giants’ receivers didn’t live up to expectations. Odell Beckham, Brandon Marshall, and Sterling Shepard all dealt with pre-season injuries, and the team’s depth simply couldn’t pick up the slack.
