Darius Slayton Healthy to Start Training Camp

Thursday, July 30, 7:05 AM

After missing spring workouts while recovering from offseason core-muscle surgery, New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton was in attendance for the team's first practice of training camp. While the Giants have 14 wide receivers listed on their 90-man roster, few roles, if any, have been secured behind 2024 first-round pick Malik Nabers, so the team will be looking for players who can consistently make plays in a game-like setting, and Slayton reportedly connected with quarterback Jaxson Dart on a deep out over starting cornerback Paulson Adebo. Barely clinging to fantasy relevance, Slayton is RotoBaller's WR104 ahead of the 2026 season. Still, if he can continue to string plays together throughout camp, he could prove to be a necessary piece of the Giants' new-look offense and see his fantasy value rise.

Pat Bryant Second-String Despite Strong Camp

Wednesday, August 12, 10:20 AM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Pat Bryant is listed with the second group on the team's first unofficial depth chart despite an impressive training camp. According to Parker Gabriel, Jaylen Waddle, Courtland Sutton and Marvin Mims Jr. are on the top receiver line, while Bryant is listed alongside Troy Franklin and Lil'Jordan Humphrey as a No. 2. The label is worth noting, but Bryant's practice work has told a more encouraging story. He caught a touchdown from Bo Nix during a first-team period Tuesday, and Broncos coaches have repeatedly praised the plays he has made throughout camp. Sean Payton has also pointed to Bryant's strong hands in traffic, run-after-catch ability and versatility between the outside and slot. Bryant caught 31 passes for 378 yards and one touchdown in 15 games as a rookie, making seven starts. Denver has a crowded receiver room after adding Waddle, so snaps will not come easily. Still, Bryant's second-string listing does not erase the momentum he has built this summer.
