2025 Fantasy Outlook
Golston parlayed a career-best 2024 season, during which he posted 5.5 sacks and started 13 of 17 games with Dallas, into a three-year, $19.5 deal with the Giants. He'll join a formidable collection of pass rushers alongside Dexter Lawrence, Brian Burns, Kayvon Thibodeaux and rookie Abdul Carter. There's a bit of a logjam in terms of edge rushers among that group, but Golston has experience lining up both on the edge and on the interior, and that versatility should help him see meaningful snaps.

Golston (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Chargers.
ANALYSIS
Golston is now in line to miss his second consecutive game while dealing with an ankle issue. The Iowa product played 81 total snaps (49 on special teams, 32 on defense) over the Giants' first two games this season, recording two total tackles. Abdul Carter is expected to serve as New York's lone reserve outside linebacker with Golston sidelined Sunday.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Hamstring issue not too serious
DEDallas Cowboys
July 23, 2021
The Cowboys don't expect Golston (hamstring) to miss Week 1, Michael Gehlken of The Dallas Morning News reports.
ANALYSIS
Golston will miss at least some of his rookie training camp due to a hamstring injury that's landed him on the PUP list, but he should be back for Week 1. Golston's versatility should lead to a fair amount of defensive reps Year 1, assuming he avoids setbacks in his recovery.
