Jermaine Eluemunor mocks Dallas loss as Giants take NFC East lead

New York Giants right tackle Jermaine Eluemunor mocked the Dallas Cowboys after their 33-30 loss to the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. The Giants are currently sitting at 4-2-1 during their bye week, while the defeat drops Dallas to 3-5 in the standings. Eluemunor took to social media on November 1 to celebrate the division shift without his team having to play.

The offensive lineman posted a direct message regarding the extra rest and the rival team's struggle. He wrote: "Man this has been such a great bye!" This reaction highlights how the Giants now hold a commanding lead in the NFC East despite their own recent challenges. The Cowboys were expected to win and close the gap, but their loss instead widens the gap in favor of New York.

Fantasy impact

The Giants' bye week means no games are played on Sunday, Nov. 1, so there are no immediate lineup changes for New York players. The team will return to action on Sunday, Nov. 8, at 1:00 PM ET against the Philadelphia Eagles at Lincoln Financial Field. This matchup against a division rival will be critical for the Giants to maintain their lead over the Eagles and Commanders.

Jameis Winston has been starting at quarterback while the team navigates the season after losing Jaxson Dart to injury, according to HITC. The team also acquired JJ McCarthy via trade to provide an alternate option at the position. Fantasy managers should monitor the health of these quarterbacks leading up to the game against Philadelphia.

What to do

Hold all New York Giants players through the bye week as they prepare for a tough divisional matchup. There is no active roster move to make since the team is not playing this week.

Watch for injury reports on Jameis Winston and JJ McCarthy before setting lineups for the game on November 8.
