New York Giants: Adapting to the weakening of the wide receiver position

The New York Giants wide receiver room looks very different than it did last season. Odell Beckham Jr. is now with the Cleveland Browns. Golden Tate, brought in to replace Beckham Jr., is suspended for four games and likely to lose his appeal.

Sterling Shepard has a fractured thumb, and while the team expects him back for Week 1, there’s no guarantee that he’ll be ready. Corey Coleman, a favorite to be the third receiver, tore his ACL and will miss the season.

The Giants are going to need to change on the fly, as they’ll potentially be missing their top three wide receivers on opening day.
