2026 Outlook
Braxton Berrios signed with the Giants on June 1, 2026, after the team placed Gunner Olszewski on injured reserve. A slot receiver and special-teams ace, Berrios brings proven return-game value to New York's receiving room alongside the returning Odell Beckham Jr. His 2021 All-Pro season as a returner (13.4 yards per punt return, 30.4 yards per kickoff return—leading the NFL) demonstrated elite value in that role. Though his receiving statistics are modest (typically 40-50 catches per season), Berrios offers situational depth at WR and anchors the Giants' special teams unit (per Giants sign wide receiver Braxton Berrios). His fantasy relevance is limited to PPR scoring from receptions and return yardage, but he's a roster staple on special-teams-heavy scoring leagues.
Role / Depth Chart
Slot receiver and return specialist. Contributing depth at WR behind Odell Beckham Jr. and DeAndre Washington. Core returner on kick and punt teams.
