• Giants' Darius Slayton: Set to return Sunday

  4H ago • By RotoWire

  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.

• Giants' Darius Slayton: Another full practice

  1D ago • By RotoWire

  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.

• Giants' Darius Slayton: Full practice Wednesday

  2D ago • By RotoWire

  Slayton (concussion) practiced in full Wednesday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. Slayton made a late departure from a Week 9 loss to the Commanders and subsequently was placed in the concussion protocol. He wasn't able to gain clearance from an independent neurologist in time to travel with the Giants to Germany for a Week 10 matchup with the Panthers, but following the team's bye, he wasn't inhibited in the first session of Week 12 prep. It's unclear if Slayton is out of the concussion protocol, but Wednesday's uncapped practice bodes well for his chances of playing Sunday against the Buccaneers.

• Giants' Darius Slayton: Won't travel to Germany

  15D ago • By RotoWire

  Slayton (concussion) will not travel with the Giants to Germany and will be out for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports. Slayton was placed in concussion protocol following Sunday's loss to the Commanders and has yet to practice this week, indicating he hasn't made significant progress in his recovery. As a result, he'll stay stateside for the Giants' Week 10 game in Germany, though he should have a better chance to return after the team's bye for a Week 12 matchup against the Buccaneers. Jalin Hyatt will have the opportunity to step up in Slayton's absence.

• Giants' Darius Slayton: Week 10 status dicey

  15D ago • By RotoWire

  Giants head coach Brian Daboll said Slayton (concussion) won't practice Thursday and is unlikely to make the trip to Munich, Germany for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports. Slayton has made no noticeable progress through the protocol for head injuries after he suffered a concussion this past Sunday against the Commanders. If Slayton indeed isn't able to join his teammates, Jalin Hyatt will be the next player up at wide receiver alongside Malik Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson.
