  • Slayton caught his only target for 16 yards in Sunday's 35-14 loss to Baltimore. Slayton's recent trend of poor production continued in the loss, as he's now caught two or fewer passes in four straight games. Even more worrisome is the fact that the veteran wideout was targeted just once in the contest. It doesn't help that the Giants' quarterback situation is a mess. With Drew Lock (heel/elbow) unable to play against the Ravens and Tommy DeVito leaving late in the first half due to a concussion, journeyman Tim Boyle ended up playing the entire second half. It's uncertain which of the three signal-callers will be behind center to begin next Sunday's matchup versus the Falcons, but Slayton's outlook isn't bright regardless of who is throwing passes for the team.

  • Slayton caught two of his six targets for 27 yards Sunday in a 14-11 Week 14 loss to the Saints. Malik Nabers entered the weekend deemed questionable to play due to hip and groin injuries, and with some reports indicating that he would be limited even if able to suit up, it looked like Slayton could be in line for increased opportunity. The veteran wideout did technically see a bump in his stats -- his 27 receiving yards marked his highest total since Week 9 -- but he still finished fifth on the team in targets behind wideouts Wan'Dale Robinson (11) and Nabers (10) as well as running back Tyrone Tracy (10) and tight end Daniel Bellinger (seven). Given the poor state of the Giants' offense -- they 've scored 20 or fewer points all but one time during their current eight-game losing streak -- and Slayton's increasingly frustrating inefficiency, he's a name to leave on the waiver wire in the majority of fantasy leagues.

  • Slayton caught two of six targets for eight yards in Thursday's Thanksgiving Day loss to Dallas. After being held without a catch in a Week 12 loss with Tommy DeVito starting at quarterback for New York, Slayton was only mildly more productive Thursday with Drew Lock behind center. It's unclear which QB will start next Sunday against New Orleans, but either way Slayton's floor has fallen quite low since the departure of Daniel Jones. Among the Giants' wideout corps, only Malik Nabers has been able to maintain useful production since the changing of the guard at quarterback.

  • Slayton (concussion) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game versus the Buccaneers, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. With confirmation that he's cleared the concussion protocol, Slayton is set for his first game action since Week 9. Elsewhere in New York's receiving corps, Malik Nabers showed up on Friday's injury report as a non-participant due to a groin injury and is listed as questionable for Week 12 action. Nabers himself told Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com that he intends to suit up Sunday, but if Nabers is inhibited or even inactive, Slayton would stand to benefit in a passing game that will be led by Tommy DeVito now that Daniel Jones has been waived by the team.

  • Slayton (concussion) remained a full practice participant Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. Slayton is in the later stages of the concussion protocol following the head injury that he sustained during a Week 9 loss to the Commanders. It's unclear yet whether he's met with an independent neurologist in order to gain clearance to return to action, but he nonetheless appears as if he'll be good to go Sunday against the Buccaneers. If that comes to pass, Slayton will be on the receiving end of passes from QB Tommy DeVito after the Giants demoted Daniel Jones coming out of their Week 11 bye.
