Darius Slayton Limited Again On Thursday

3 weeks ago

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton (groin) put in his second straight limited practice session this week on Thursday. Slayton is dealing with a groin issue but should be able to suit up this weekend to face the division-rival Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday. However, the impending return of rookie sensation Malik Nabers (concussion, hamstring) would make the 27-year-old Slayton less appealing as a flex play for fantasy managers for the third straight week. Slayton definitely took advantage of Nabers' absence the last two weeks, going for 14 receptions on 22 targets for 179 yards and a touchdown in Weeks 5 and 6. Before, he didn't go over three catches or 56 yards. If for some reason Slayton isn't able to play against the Eagles, Jalin Hyatt would likely serve as the WR3 for the G-Men behind Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson.
