Poll of the Day: How many receiving yards will Hakeem Nicks have vs. 49ers?
Although he rolled his ankle during practice this week, Giants receiver Hakeem Nicks is listed as probable on the injury report and is expected to play.
Nicks, who is my top-ranked fantasy receiver for this week, has had back-to-back monster games this postseason. In those two games combined, Nicks has 13 receptions for 280 yards and four touchdowns.
During the regular season, Nicks had a solid year (76 receptions for 1,192 yards and seven touchdowns). He set a career high in yards but fell short of his career highs in receptions (79) and touchdowns (11) set in 2010.
And, of course, his performance was overshadowed by what teammate Victor Cruz did in setting the franchise record in receiving yards (1,536).
The weather may not be great in San Francisco for the NFC Championship Game with all the rain in the forecast.
Based on a prop bet from Sportsbook.com, the over/under for receiving yards for Nicks this weekend is 80.5 yards.
Will Nicks have another big week? Or will finish with 80 yards or less?
