Who Should I Start? Darius Slayton or Joshua Palmer

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.

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Joshua Palmer (ankle) is officially active for the Week 15 game on Sunday in New England against the division-rival Patriots. With Palmer returning to action, Gabe Davis will be a healthy scratch for Buffalo. The 26-year-old Palmer will return to the WR rotation after missing the team's last two games. He'll provide a deep threat for quarterback Josh Allen, but fantasy managers should be looking elsewhere for a flex play this weekend. Palmer is unlikely to see much playing time behind Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, Tyrell Shavers, and Brandin Cooks. Tight ends Dalton Kincaid and Dawson Knox will probably be more involved as well against a very capable Patriots defense. Palmer just hasn't made much noise at all in his first year in Buffalo in 2025, catching 18 of his 29 targets for 272 yards and zero touchdowns.
