New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton will return to the field in Week 8 against the Philadelphia Eagles after missing each of his team's last two games due to a hamstring injury. Slayton has recorded 12 catches for 166 yards on 18 targets across five games so far this season. However, he recorded a season-high six targets in Week 5, the lone game he has played in since star Giants wideout Malik Nabers (knee) was lost for the season with a knee injury. Slayton recorded 14 catches for 179 yards and a touchdown on 22 targets across the two games that Nabers missed in 2024. The Giants have a difficult matchup on the road against the Eagles in Week 8. Philadelphia has allowed the second-fewest receiving touchdowns (seven) in the NFL in 2025. Still, Slayton has clear target volume upside and profiles as a low-end WR4/flex option for fantasy managers in Week 8.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Nick Westbrook-Ikhine has stepped into a much larger role in the last few weeks since Tyreek Hill (knee) was lost for the season. He played over 60% of snaps in each of the last three weeks, and last week, he finally started to get more involved. He had three catches for 16 yards on four targets last week after only totaling four catches in the first six games of the year. Despite his upward trend, he's in a tough matchup against the Falcons this week, who have allowed the second-fewest fantasy points to receivers this year. Westbrook-Ikhine is only the No. 77 WR in RotoBaller's rankings due to the difficult matchup and Miami's struggling offense, so he shouldn't be started in hardly any formats this week.
