Progressing well post-surgery
McFadden started running on the field last week as he makes his way back from Lisfranc surgery for the foot injury he suffered in Week 1, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
McFadden could potentially return to practice this week, marking the first practice for the linebacker since he suffered his injury in the Giants' Week 1 loss to the Commanders. It's unclear how far the linebacker has to progress to make his return before the season's end, but things appear to be trending up for the 2022 fifth-round pick.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2023
McFadden built upon a strong finish to his rookie campaign to nail down a starting role in his second season, and he finished third on New York with 101 tackles, which included a team-high-tying 12 tackles for loss. The 2022 fifth-round draft pick has two years remaining on his rookie deal, and New York figures to reap the benefits of McFadden's very affordable contract as they pair him with Bobby Okereke to field a formidable linebacker duo.
