New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton recorded three catches for 44 yards on four targets in his team's 21-18 Week 4 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. Slayton has just nine catches for 135 yards on 12 targets so far in 2025, but he's likely to see a major uptick in target volume with star Giants wideout Malik Nabers (knee) likely out for the remainder of the season with what could be a torn ACL. In the two games Nabers missed in 2024, Slayton recorded 14 catches for 179 yards and a touchdown on 22 targets. Giants wide receiver Wan'Dale Robinson should also see more work in the passing game, but Slayton is the more explosive downfield threat. Slayton should be added in all fantasy leagues with 12 or more teams ahead of a favorable Week 5 matchup against the New Orleans Saints.

Carolina Panthers wide receiver Xavier Legette (hamstring) has officially been ruled out for the Week 4 road tilt against the New England Patriots on Sunday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. It will be the second straight game that Legette will miss after he was unable to practice at all this week. He will need to get back on the practice field next week if he wants to return for a Week 5 matchup against the Miami Dolphins. Rookie first-rounder Tetairoa McMillan (calf) is also questionable this weekend, so the Panthers could be pretty thin at wideout. Tight end Ja'Tavion Sanders (ankle) will also miss multiple weeks with a high-ankle sprain. It's setting up nicely for New England's defense in this one. With Legette out, Hunter Renfrow, David Moore, and Brycen Tremayne will battle for additional snaps and targets. Renfrow would be worth a look as a sleeper, but probably only if McMillan is out as well.
