2024 Fantasy Outlook
After the Giants took him in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft, Schmitz served as a starter in all 13 games in which he played as a rookie, though he also missed four contests due to injuries. He's slated to start at center for New York again in 2024. Read Past Outlooks
Left off injury report
Schmitz (ankle) was left off the Giants' injury report Wednesday ahead of Sunday's Week 1 contest against the Vikings.
ANALYSIS
Schmitz sustained an ankle injury during the Giants' preseason finale against the Jets, but it appears he's moved past the issue just in time for New York's regular-season opener. Expect the second-year offensive lineman to start at center for the Giants in 2024.
