Giants Sign Darius Slayton To Baffling $36 Million Deal
WR Darius Slayton signed a three-year $36 million deal to stay with the New York Giants. That total is less than they offered RB Saquon Barkley last offseason. Slayton should slot in exactly where he sat in 2024 as the WR3 behind Malik Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson
Darius Slayton Will Play Week 12
Giants WR Darius Slayton (concussion) put in a full week of practice and is not listed on the final injury report for Sunday’s game vs. the Buccaneers. He’s just a desperation WR4 for now but would upgrade to WR3 status if WR Malik Nabers misses this game with his groin injury.
Darius Slayton A Full-Go Wednesday
Giants WR Darius Slayton (concussion) was a full participant in Wednesday's practice. Barring a setback, he'll play against the Bucs this weekend. Tampa Bay ranks 29th in adjusted fantasy points allowed to WRs, but Slayton would be a desperation fantasy play with QB Tommy DeVito.
Darius Slayton Out For Week 10
Giants WR Darius Slayton (concussion) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Panthers. He figures to be replaced by WR Jalin Hyatt, who’s only a flier in DFS tournaments. Hyatt has drawn a target on just 8% of his routes this season. (Slayton is at 15% for comparison.)
Several injury situations have opened the door for new fantasy contributors. See which QBs, RBs, WRs, and TEs to target inside the Week 8 waiver wire pickups.
