New York Giants veteran wide receiver in danger of being cut, per analyst

The New York Giants have some big decisions to make ahead of Tuesday's deadline to cut the roster down to 53 players.

Among those tough decisions include a crowded wide receiver room. With four spots essentially locked up with Malik Nabers, Wan'Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton and Jalin Hyatt, the Giants must decide how many receivers to keep on the initial roster.

Then, they must decide which players get the final two or three spots in the room.

One player who is right on the fringe of the roster bubble is veteran wide receiver Allen Robinson, who finds himself in danger of being cut, according to David Kenyon of Bleacher Report .

"The question is the role. If the Giants believe a fifth wideout is necessary after Malik Nabers, Wan'Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton and Jalin Hyatt, they may prioritize Allen Robinson II. If they're comfortable in a four-man rotation, the special teams factor does Robinson no favors when compared to Miles Boykin, Isaiah McKenzie or Gunner Olszewski," Kenyon wrote.

The special teams factor is likely going to be the biggest determination in the final spots in the wide receiver room. The Giants seem pretty content with the starting quartet of wideouts they currently have.

There figures to be a spot reserved for one of Isaiah McKenzie or Gunner Olszewski due to their abilities as return men on special teams. However, Olszewski is currently nursing a groin injury that could force him to miss the beginning of the season.

Miles Boykin may have a chance to make it over Robinson due to his special teams work as well even though the latter is the superior talent on offense.

It will be interesting to see what the Giants have planned, but Robinson certainly finds himself on the roster bubble with cuts looming.
