Who Should I Start? Courtland Sutton or Darius Slayton

Saturday, October 11, 8:36 AM

Although Denver Broncos wide receiver Courtland Sutton will face star cornerback Sauce Gardner and the New York Jets defense, he will likely lead the team in targets as they take the field in London. Sutton has been a consistent player this season, outside of a Week 2 dud, in which Troy Franklin had a breakout game. With averages of 13.5 half-ppr ppg and 16.1 full-ppr ppg coming into Week 6, Sutton is likely the only fully reliable option within the Broncos' core against a defense that typically gets exploited by the run game more than the pass. Fantasy managers should keep him in their lineups as a WR2 with upside, as Sutton comes in as WR15 in the latest RotoBaller rankings for Week 6.

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton will return to the field in Week 8 against the Philadelphia Eagles after missing each of his team's last two games due to a hamstring injury. Slayton has recorded 12 catches for 166 yards on 18 targets across five games so far this season. However, he recorded a season-high six targets in Week 5, the lone game he has played in since star Giants wideout Malik Nabers (knee) was lost for the season with a knee injury. Slayton recorded 14 catches for 179 yards and a touchdown on 22 targets across the two games that Nabers missed in 2024. The Giants have a difficult matchup on the road against the Eagles in Week 8. Philadelphia has allowed the second-fewest receiving touchdowns (seven) in the NFL in 2025. Still, Slayton has clear target volume upside and profiles as a low-end WR4/flex option for fantasy managers in Week 8.
