2024 Fantasy Outlook
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.

Racks up 13 stops Week 2
McFadden tallied 13 tackles (seven solo), including one sack, in a loss to the Commanders on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
McFadden didn't see the field Week 1 against Minnesota, but he got the start Sunday with Darius Muasau out with a knee injury. McFadden took advantage of the opportunity with a team-leading tackle total that included a third-quarter sack of Jayden Daniels. McFadden did briefly leave the game with an injury in the second quarter, but he was able to return and finish out the contest. It remains to be seen how he'll be used moving forward, and Muasau's injury status could certainly play a part in McFadden's snap count.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
McFadden played in all 17 games for the Giants as a rookie and saw his role increase as the season progressed, though he was inactive for each of the team's two playoff games. The Florida product gave way to veteran Jarrad Davis in those postseason contests, but Davis won't play in 2023 due to a knee injury. McFadden should compete in training camp with Darrian Beavers for a starting role, though Beavers may have the advantage due to superior pass-coverage skills.
