Darius Slayton Has Weak Fantasy Day In Week 16

Sunday, December 22, 6:12 PM

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton had a quiet outing in Sunday's 34-7 loss to the Atlanta Falcons, recording just one catch for 21 yards on two targets and adding one carry for six yards. His lone reception tied for the team's longest of the day, matching Malik Nabers' 21-yard catch, but opportunities were scarce for the third option in a struggling passing attack led by Drew Lock. Slayton's 3.2 fantasy points reflect the broader inefficiencies of the Giants' offense, which has been unable to support multiple receivers effectively. With Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson dominating targets and Lock failing to produce, Slayton's fantasy relevance remains minimal heading into the season's final weeks.

Cole Kmet Completely Uninvolved In Thursday's Loss To Seahawks

Thursday, December 26, 11:25 PM

Chicago Bears tight end Cole Kmet was a statistical no-show in Thursday's 6-3 loss to the Seattle Seahawks. The fifth-year Bear saw zero passes go his way from quarterback Caleb Williams, marking his third game this season without a single target. Overall, the 25-year-old has caught 45 passes for 471 yards and four touchdowns over 16 games this season. Kmet's game disappointed fantasy managers who looked his direction this week, and he will likely continue to be minimally involved within the offense in Week 18's season finale against the Green Bay Packers.
