2025 Projections
Absorbs significant role in Year 2
Muasau (ankle) started 11 of the 12 games in which he played in 2025, totaling 51 tackles (including 1.0 sacks) and one defensed pass.
ANALYSIS
Muasau began the campaign in a rotational role, but Micah McFadden suffered a foot injury in Week 1 and never returned to game action, leaving the former with a starting role. Muasau dealt with injuries as well -- he spent four games on IR due to an ankle injury and also sat out one contest early in the campaign due to a concussion -- but he typically logged defensive snap counts north of 60 percent when he was healthy. Muasau suffered an ankle injury in Week 18, and it's unclear if it's an issue that will affect his availability for OTAs. He has two years remaining on his rookie contract and should play a role on defense for the Giants next year, though whether or not he'll continue to start could depend on the health of the team's other inside linebackers.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Set for bigger role
Muasau is set to take on a bigger role due to Micah McFadden being sidelined by a foot injury, Jordan Raanan of ESPN reports.
ANALYSIS
McFadden is set to undergo surgery and doesn't have a clear timeline to return. Muasau closed the 2024 season as a starter for the Giants and logged at least eight tackles in four of the team's last five games, but he managed only two tackles on 34 defensive snaps in Week 1 after McFadden's departure.
