Who Should I Start? Darius Slayton or Kyle Williams

Saturday, October 18, 2:09 PM

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton (hamstring) has been ruled out for his team's Week 7 matchup against the Denver Broncos, per Dan Salomone of Giants.com. This marks the second straight missed game for Slayton, who has recorded 12 catches for 166 yards on 18 targets across the five games he's been healthy for in 2025. With both Slayton and Malik Nabers (knee) sidelined, Giants wideout Wan'Dale Robinson should see a healthy dose of targets from quarterback Jaxson Dart. Wide receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey could serve as the team's WR2, as he saw eight targets with Slayton out in Week 6. Still, in a tough matchup against Denver, Robinson is likely the only Giants pass-catcher worth starting for fantasy managers in Week 7.

New England Patriots offensive coordinator Josh McDaniels recently said that rookie wide receiver Kyle Williams "continues to practice well" and is "doing a really good job of understanding his assignments," per ESPN's Mike Reiss. Williams has had a limited impact through the first six weeks of his career, recording two catches for 20 yards on four targets. However, it appears as though the team is happy with his progress and sees him as an important piece going forward. For now, Williams appears to be behind Stefon Diggs (chest), Kayshon Boutte, DeMario Douglas, and Mack Hollins on the depth chart at wide receiver in New England. He should remain off of the radar of redraft fantasy managers for the time being, but Williams maintains appeal in dynasty leagues.
