Darius Slayton News

Darius Slayton back with New York · Mar 16, 2023

The Giants have re-signed Darius Slayton to a two-year, $12 million deal.

Slayton was famously in the doghouse for much of his Giants career, but he came on strong this season as he slowly climbed out of it and posted a pretty respectable 46/724/2 line on the year. Slayton is more of a home run hitter than anything else, but the Giants simply don't have much in the cupboard outside of new additions Darren Waller and Parris Campbell. He has some appeal in dynasty leagues as we've seen him illustrate some real skill in the past. However, it's hard to see him rising too much higher than his WR82 ranking until we see some more consistency.

Darius Slayton a free agent · Jan 30, 2023

Darius Slayton is a free agent in 2023

Slayton was set to be cut in the preseason but managed to hang onto his roster spot, ultimately becoming a top option for the Giants when Sterling Shepard's season ended. Slayton finished with a 46/724/2 line and should find suitors on the open market. Recently-turned 26, Slayton is found as DLF's WR88 and could be a sneaky addition as a sleeper for 2023.
