Darius Slayton Leads Giants in Receiving Against Dolphins

Sunday, August 23, 7:12 PM

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton caught four of six targets for 58 yards in the 26-3 preseason win over the Miami Dolphins. Slayton led the Giants' starting lineup in snaps and targets, playing all eight snaps on the team's opening drive with quarterback Jameis Winston. The veteran receiver had 538 yards and one touchdown in 14 games last season, though he is expected to play a smaller role with Malik Nabers back from injury and free-agency additions across the board. While Slayton's blocking and deep-threat ability could keep him on the field over the other names, he is unlikely to be a key contributor in fantasy leagues this season.

Isaac TeSlaa is Shaky Option in Redraft Formats

Wednesday, August 19, 5:44 PM

Detroit Lions wide receiver Isaac TeSlaa is expected to have a larger role in the offense this upcoming season. The second-year wideout is currently competing with Greg Dortch for the third wideout spot on this roster. It sounds nice on paper, but whoever gets that role will get the scraps behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams. The Lions also have tight end Sam LaPorta, who should be a significant part of the passing game as well. There are too many options on this offense for TeSlaa to have a steady role as a pass-catcher right now. The 24-year-old appears to be a viable red-zone target with six touchdowns last season. His role on the team should grow, but it'll likely be slowly, which makes him more of a dynasty stash than a weekly option in redraft formats.
