Who Should I Start? Darius Slayton or Travis Hunter

Friday, September 19, 3:15 PM

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton (groin, calf) will play in his team's week 3 matchup against the Kansas City Chiefs, per Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. Slayton was limited in practice this week due to groin and calf issues, but will not carry an injury designation into the weekend. The 28-year-old has two catches for 61 yards on just four targets through his first two games of the season. Slayton appears to be firmly behind both Malik Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson in the target pecking order among wide receivers in New York. Slayton should remain off the radar of fantasy managers.

Jacksonville Jaguars head coach Liam Coen said that injuries at wide receiver and/or cornerback won't affect rookie two-way star Travis Hunter's usage. Right now, Hunter is playing just one position at receiver and one at cornerback, although he will build more versatility in years to come. When Dyami Brown (shoulder) was injured in the Week 3 win over the Houston Texans, Parker Washington played more instead of Hunter. The Heisman Trophy winner has played out of the slot for 63 percent of his routes through his first three NFL games, and he's caught 10 of his 16 targets for 76 scoreless yards. The 22-year-old had just one catch on two targets for 21 yards last week and was more involved on defense than ever before, which is not what his fantasy managers want to see. It sounds like Hunter's role on offense won't necessarily increase if Brown cannot play in Week 4 against the San Francisco 49ers.
