Who Should I Start? Darius Slayton or Jauan Jennings

Tuesday, December 2, 1:00 AM

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton hauled in two of his three targets for 41 yards and his first touchdown of the season in Monday night's loss to the New England Patriots. Slayton led the Giants in receiving in the game and found the end zone for the first time since Week 17 of last season. The 28-year-old hasn't been a huge factor for the Giants this season, totaling 26 receptions for 407 yards and one touchdown on 39 targets in 10 games. He's operated as the No. 3 option in the passing game behind Wan'Dale Robinson and tight end Theo Johnson in recent weeks and has returned fringe flex value in fantasy football. Slayton and the Giants head into their Week 14 bye before facing the Washington Commanders in Week 15.

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Jauan Jennings will get a chance to build on his recent bump in productivity when the team hosts the Titans in Week 15. Jennings is riding a seven-game streak with at least four receptions and has caught a touchdown in four of the 49ers' last games. It should be noted that in that span, he averaged just 49.2 receiving yards per game. He will have a chance to do more damage against a Titans secondary that has allowed at least 76 receiving yards plus a touchdown to their opponents' leading receivers in each of their last four games. Jennings has seemingly been unaffected by Ricky Pearsall's return to action and is consistently among one of Brock Purdy's favorite targets, alongside George Kittle and Christian McCaffrey. Jennings projects as a WR2 in Week 15, making him a viable starter as the fantasy football playoffs get underway.
