"In his seventh professional season, Darius Slayton is one of the longest tenured Giants. He was a sixth-round pick in the 2019 draft out of Auburn. Over his career, Slayton has played in 97 games and made 70 starts for the Giants. For the first time, he was voted a captain on New York's roster. Darius Slayton is well-respected in New York's locker room."
"During the Giants' Week 4 win vs. the Chargers, WR Malik Nabers suffered a torn ACL. It's a season-ending injury that will require surgery. A devastating loss offensively for New York. Without Nabers, Darius Slayton and Wan'Dale Robinson are the Giants' top wide receivers. On Wednesday morning, ESPN's Jeremy Fowler had a brutal injury update for New York. Barring an unforeseen change, Darius Salyton is expected to miss TNF in Week 6 with a hamstring."
Malik Nabers suffered a torn ACL in Week 4 and will miss the remainder of the season, requiring surgery. Darius Slayton is dealing with a hamstring and is expected to miss Thursday Night Football in Week 6 due to the short turnaround. With Nabers out and Slayton unavailable, Wan'Dale Robinson projects to be the Giants' WR1 versus the Eagles. Other receivers on the roster include Jaylin Hyatt, Beaux Collins, and Gunner Olzewski, and Lil'Jordan Humphrey could be elevated from the practice squad to play. Slayton is in his seventh season, has 97 games and 70 starts, and was voted a team captain.
