Darius Slayton's Long-Term Role in New York is Uncertain Entering 2026

Tuesday, June 30, 7:22 AM

Across 14 games in 2025, New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton recorded 37 catches for 538 yards and one touchdown on 63 targets. Slayton remains a steady downfield presence, as he's averaged 15.1 yards per reception over the last four seasons. However, he was unable to step into a higher-volume role last season, even after star Giants wideout Malik Nabers (knee) went down with a season-ending knee injury in Week 4. Entering 2026, New York has a new coaching staff in place that may not be as partial to Slayton. The Giants signed veteran wideouts Darnell Mooney, Calvin Austin III, and Odell Beckham Jr. in free agency in addition to using a third-round pick in the 2026 Draft on wide receiver Malachi Fields. As Slayton enters his age-29 season, he may be in line for a significantly reduced role in his team's offense. In dynasty formats, managers may want to see whether they can move Slayton for any value.

Isaiah Hodgins News

Giants Re-Sign Isaiah Hodgins to One-Year Deal

Monday, March 9, 4:47 PM

The New York Giants re-signed wide receiver Isaiah Hodgins on Monday to an undisclosed one-year deal, a source told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Hodgins began last season on the Pittsburgh Steelers' practice squad before eventually being signed to the Giants' active roster in November. The 27-year-old former sixth-round pick by the Buffalo Bills in 2020 out of Oregon State caught just 10 of his 19 targets for 115 yards and one touchdown in seven games (five starts) for the G-Men in 2025. At best, he'll most likely be competing for the WR3 role in New York now that Wan'Dale Robinson has left in free agency. And with new tight end Isaiah Likely in town, Hodgins could be the fourth or fifth option for young quarterback Jaxson Dart in the passing game. In his five years in the NFL, Hodgins has only 70 catches for 749 yards and eight touchdowns in 38 games played (19 starts) for the Giants and Bills.
