Who Should I Start? Darius Slayton or Andy Isabella

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton (groin) popped up on Thursday's injury report and was listed as a limited participant in practice despite not showing up on the initial Week 2 injury report on Wednesday. If Slayton is unable to return to a full practice on Friday, he could be considered questionable for the Week 2 matchup against the division-rival Dallas Cowboys this Sunday. Even if the 28-year-old is cleared to play this weekend, fantasy managers in most leagues should be avoiding Slayton in a Giants offense that struggled to move the ball in the season-opening loss to the Washington Commanders under new quarterback Russell Wilson. At best, Slayton is a low-volume WR3 in New York's offense behind Malik Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson. In Week 1, he failed to corral his only target from Wilson.

Free agent wide receiver Andy Isabella inked a deal with the San Francisco 49ers on Thursday. The 49ers will technically be Isabella's fifth team in the NFL after bouncing around practice squads for the past few years. Isabella will add extra depth with injuries seemingly popping up left and right in the 49ers' wide receiver room. The former 62nd overall pick of the 2019 draft has put up career stats of 33 receptions for 447 yards and three touchdowns. After compiling the majority of these statistics during his first two years in the league with the Arizona Cardinals, Isabella will look to revamp his career in San Francisco.
