Darius Slayton Sticking With Giants

Monday, March 10, 7:13 PM

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton has signed a new extension with the organization on Monday. The two sides have agreed to a three-year, $36 million extension. Slayton has been with the Giants since being drafted in the fifth round by the team in 2019. The 28-year-old had a down year in 2024, but has posted four seasons with 700 receiving yards or more during his career. He's certainly not a top option, but is a nice asset to have alongside Malik Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson. Slayton will probably float around WR4 value, but that depends on what else the Giants add this offseason.

Jalen Nailor In Line for WR3 Role in Minnesota

Friday, July 11, 2:31 PM

Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Jalen Nailor "will be the team's No. 3 receiver," according to Alec Lewis of The Athletic. Lewis also notes that Nailor showed up to organized team activities in the "best shape of his life." Nailor played 17 games for Minnesota last season, recording 28 receptions for 414 yards and six touchdowns. His most productive stretch of the season might have been from Week 2-3, where he tallied a combined six catches for 85 yards and two scores. That's noteworthy because those are the two games that fellow Minnesota wideout Jordan Addison missed in 2024. Addison could be facing an early-season suspension due to a DUI citation he received last summer. If that happens, Nailor could be a sneaky end-of-roster add for fantasy managers.
