Updating a previous report, New York Giants WR Darius Slayton (hamstring) was limited during practice Friday, Oct. 24, but is not on the injury report for Week 8.
| Footballguys view: Slayton has been out with this hamstring injury since Week 5. In the two games in which Jaxson Dart started with Slayton, the veteran receiver averaged five targets. The field and playbook have begun to open up for Dart even more since those games, making Slayton a sneaky, albeit risky, flex play in this week's matchup against the Eagles. |

New York Giants WR Darius Slayton (hamstring) was limited during practice Thursday, Oct. 23.
| Footballguys view: Slayton is trending in the right direction with a couple of limited practices this week. After missing the last two games, we like Slayton as a deep flex play against the Eagles in Week 8. |

New York Giants WR Darius Slayton (hamstring) will practice on Wednesday, Oct. 22.
| Footballguys view: Slayton missed Week 6 against the Eagles and Week 7 against the Broncos, but he could be out there against the Eagles in Week 8. He injured this hamstring in Week 5, and Wednesday will be his first practice since then. Let's see if there are any setbacks from what is likely to be limited work. |

New York Giants WR Darius Slayton (hamstring) has been ruled out of the Week 7 game.
| Footballguys view: Slayton suffered the hamstring injury in Week 5, and he hasn't practiced since then. The team did not put him on IR, so they didn't believe Slayton needed the minimum four weeks of rest. That means we could see him return to practice on a limited basis next week. Lil Jordan Humphrey gets the call up against his former team (Broncos) on Sunday. |

New York Giants WR Darius Slayton (hamstring) did not practice all week and has been listed as doubtful for Week 7 against the Denver Broncos.

He's now expected to miss a second straight game, opening the door for Jalin Hyatt, Lil'Jordan Humphrey, and Beaux Collins to move up in the rotation behind Wan'Dale Robinson against the Broncos this week. |

| Footballguys view: Slayton has been out of action since injuring his hamstring in Week 5. He seems unlikely to suit up against the Broncos on Sunday. Lil'Jordan Humphrey should get more work against his former team, and the veteran receiver is at least a 'what the heck' flex in Week 7. |

New York Giants WR Darius Slayton (hamstring) suffered a hamstring injury during the Week 5 game and did not return.
| Footballguys view: Slayton was open deep on a flea flicker, but underthrown, and also had a fumble before leaving the game with an injury. He was a hot pickup this week, but can probably be dropped in typical leagues. The Giants play on Thursday, so he's almost certainly out for at least one game. There is still some promise of enough value to be worth a roster spot once he's healthy. |

The New York Giants plan to replace WR Malik Nabers (knee) in their offense with a committee approach, since it is difficult for one player to duplicate his production, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. WRs Wan'Dale Robinson and Darius Slayton, TE Theo Johnson and RB Cam Skattebo are expected to compensate for his loss and should see additional offensive targets.

New York Giants WR Darius Slayton (calf, groin) was limited during practice Friday, Sept. 19, but is not on the injury report for Week 3.
| Footballguys view: Despite being the most tenured receiving in New York, Slayton is taking a backseat to Malik Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson. With just two catches on the year, there's little reason to hold him in most leagues. He was a late-round target with upside in drafts, but is probably an injury away from meaningful usage now. |

New York Giants WR Darius Slayton has developed a 'quality connection' with QB Russell Wilson, according to Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com.
| Footballguys view: Slayton has 'what the heck' flex appeal for Fantasy GMs. Wilson should be the starter Week 1 for the Giants, and he may be starting the entire season if 2025 first-round pick Jaxson Dart isn't yet ready to take over. Let's see what this connection looks like in the preseason, but it sounds like Slayton could be a late-round flier in deeper drafts. |

New York Giants WR Darius Slayton was one of the standout performers during offseason workouts, in the opinion of ESPN.com's Jordan Raanan.
| Footballguys view: As Newsweek noted, Slayton has been consistent for the Giants since being drafted in the fifth round in 2019. That said, shifting starting quarterbacks last season resulted in his production taking a hit. Across 16 appearances, he totaled 573 yards (his lowest since 2021) and two touchdowns (ties career-low). This year, Slayton seems excited to get to work with former Super Bowl-winning quarterback Russell Wilson. With a more reliable talent like Wilson under center, it could result in a rebound as Slayton, currently carrying a WR78 average draft position, works alongside talented youngster Malik Nabers. |

New York Giants impending free-agent WR Darius Slayton is expected to have no shortage of suitors in free agency, according to comments he made recently on the Talkin' Ball Podcast with Pat Leonard.'When you look at that, my ability to stretch the field becomes more valuable because that leads to shorter drives, one-play touchdowns. You need chunk plays to score in this league. We know we have a lot of interest out there. And when free agency opens up, we'll have a lot of different conversations to have with a lot of different people,' Slayton told Leonard.

Pittsburgh Steelers WR George Pickens is not expected to be available via trade, according to sources, and the organization views any additions at the position as complementary to him. It is believed the Steelers will not add any wide receiver salaries without settling the quarterback position first, but addressing the position will be a top priority. Pittsburgh could pursue Denver Broncos WR Courtland Sutton via trade if contract talks with Denver break down, sources said. Last year, the Steelers showed interest in Jacksonville Jaguars WR Christian Kirk and WR Darius Slayton (Giants) at the trade deadline, and both could be in play again provided Kirk is released, in the opinion of PennLive's Nick Farabaugh.
