Who Should I Start? Darius Slayton or Jerry Jeudy

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton (groin) popped up on Thursday's injury report and was listed as a limited participant in practice despite not showing up on the initial Week 2 injury report on Wednesday. If Slayton is unable to return to a full practice on Friday, he could be considered questionable for the Week 2 matchup against the division-rival Dallas Cowboys this Sunday. Even if the 28-year-old is cleared to play this weekend, fantasy managers in most leagues should be avoiding Slayton in a Giants offense that struggled to move the ball in the season-opening loss to the Washington Commanders under new quarterback Russell Wilson. At best, Slayton is a low-volume WR3 in New York's offense behind Malik Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson. In Week 1, he failed to corral his only target from Wilson.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy is off to a decent, yet unspectacular, start to the 2025 season. Through two games, Jeudy has caught nine of his 16 targets for 117 scoreless yards as the Cleveland offense has struggled mightily thus far. The veteran's receiving yardage is good enough to lead the Browns so far, showing just how much moving the football has been an issue. Jeudy will look to break out at home in Week 3 against the Green Bay Packers. The Packers have been tough on defense thus far, as they shut down the Detroit Lions' receivers in Week 1 and gave up just 92 receiving yards and a touchdown combined to Terry McLaurin and Deebo Samuel in Week 2. Jeudy is looking like a WR4 in fantasy unless the Browns can straighten out their offensive issues.
