Darius Slayton was once looked at as a potential breakout player, but his rookie season (2019) continues to be his high-water mark with a 48-740-8 line. Still, the Giants investing in him by signing him to a new three-year, $36 million contract should tell us that they do still consider him to be better than what he's shown on the field in recent seasons. In 2024, Slayton finished with just 39 catches for 573 yards and 2 TDs, relegating him to fantasy waiver wires. However, Wilson's 126.3 passer rating on 20+ yard passes in 2024 could boost Slayton as he's struggled to create a connection with the line of trash quarterbacks he's had to play with in recent seasons.
Slayton is a late-round option and his fantasy relevance depends on health and QB play, making him most useful in best ball formats or as a late-round flier in deeper leagues. Expect WR4 potential with lots of frustrating boom-or-bust weeks.

 Darius Slayton set to miss Week 6
Hamstring injury
By: Mike Krueger | Wed Oct 8, 9:06 am
|  | No Darius Slayton vs. Eagles. He was limping badly around the locker room yesterday. Turnaround too quick for any real chance.
Expect Lil'Jordan Humphrey to get called up and play a role Thursday night. (Jordan Raanan on X)
FFToday's Take: Slayton left the Giants Week 5 game against the Saints with a hamstring injury and will now miss Week 6 against the Eagles. The Giants are depleted at the wide receiver position which affects the fantasy prospects of quarterback Jaxson Dart. Even if Humphrey jumps into the starting lineup he won't be a recommended fantasy play.

Giants suffer huge blow to passing game

| | An MRI today confirmed that Giants standout WR Malik Nabers suffered a season-ending torn ACL during Sunday’s game vs. the Chargers, per source. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take: It's a tough loss for the Giants who have turned to rookie Jaxson Dart at quarterback. Wan'Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton and Jalin Hyatt should be the top wideouts moving forward. TE Theo Johnson saw increased looks (5) yesterday once Nabers left. Assuming surgery and rehab go well, it's possible for Nabers to be ready for Week 1 of the 2026 season.
