Giants' Darius Slayton: Three grabs against Washington
Slayton caught three of four targets for 33 yards in Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Commanders.
The veteran receiver finished a distant second on the Giants in catches and targets to dynamic rookie Malik Nabers, who posted a 10-127-1 line and saw more targets (18) than the rest of the team put together. Slayton was, however, the intended target on a pair of two-point attempts from Daniel Jones that misfired, after Graham Gano (hamstring) was injured on the opening kickoff. Slayton has seen exactly four targets, and caught three of them, in each of New York's first two games this season, giving him a limited ceiling heading into a Week 3 clash with the Browns.

Giants' Darius Slayton: Ready for Sunday's contest
Slayton (concussion) practiced full Friday and doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game in Washington, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
In the wake of entering the concussion protocol earlier this week, Slayton was held out of drills Wednesday before getting some non-contact work one day later. His full practice Friday was accompanied by no game status for Week 2, indicating he gained clearance from an independent neurologist. Thus, Slayton will team up with Malik Nabers (knee), Wan'Dale Robinson and Jalin Hyatt at wide receiver for New York's offense this weekend.

Giants' Darius Slayton: Upgrades to limited Thursday
Slayton (concussion) practiced in a limited capacity Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Slayton entered the protocol for head injuries in the wake of the Giants' Week 1 loss to the Vikings. After sitting out Wednesday's session, he was back on the field for some non-contact drills one day later, indicating he's through at least a few of the five steps of the aforementioned protocol. Slayton will have one more opportunity to get back to all activity this week, but he'll still need to gain clearance from an independent neurologist in order to suit up Sunday at Washington.

Giants' Darius Slayton: Won't practice Wednesday
Giants head coach Brian Daboll said that Slayton (concussion) won't participate in practice Wednesday, Connor Hughes of SNY.tv reports.
Slayton remains in the NFL's concussion protocol and will likely need to get back on the practice field in some capacity in addition to gaining clearance from an independent neurologist to have a chance at playing Sunday against the Commanders. Jalin Hyatt will have a path to increased offensive snaps alongside starting wideout Malik Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson if Slayton misses any time.

Giants' Darius Slayton: In concussion protocol
Coach Brian Daboll said Monday that Slayton is in the concussion protocol, Patricia Traina of SI.com reports.
Slayton secured three of four targets for 27 yards while playing 72 percent of offensive snaps during Sunday's 28-6 loss to the Vikings, and he'll now need to fully clear the league's five-step concussion protocol before suiting up again. The speedster is entrenched as a starter in three-receiver sets alongside Malik Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson. If Slayton is unavailable Week 2 versus the Commanders, Jalin Hyatt could get an opportunity to step up as the No. 3 WR.

Giants' Darius Slayton: Leading receiver Saturday
Slayton caught all three of his targets for a team-high 59 yards in Saturday's 28-10 preseason loss to the Texans.
The speedster quickly reforged his connection with Daniel Jones in the quarterback's first game action since he tore his ACL in Week 9 of last season, hauling in a 44-yard strike in the second quarter that nearly went for a touchdown, although Slayton was ruled down at the one-yard line. The 27-year-old has led the Giants in receiving yards in four of the last five seasons despite never having an 800-yard campaign, and while that honor is expected to pass to rookie Malik Nabers in 2024, Slayton should still have a big role in the team's passing game.

Giants' Darius Slayton: Limited in practice
Coach Brian Daboll said Friday that Slayton is "tight" and won't be a full practice participant, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Slayton reportedly was limited Thursday, and he previously dealt with an undisclosed injury during June minicamp. It doesn't sound like anything serious, but perhaps the Giants will provide more details if Slayton isn't back at full strength next week.

Giants' Darius Slayton: Good to go for camp
Slayton (undisclosed) is practicing at the start of training camp, SI's Patricia Traina reports.
It seems the injury Slayton suffered during June minicamp wasn't anything serious. He led the Giants in receiving yards four of his first five seasons, but without ever reaching 800 yards in a campaign. While Slayton still projects as a starter, the Giants hope sixth overall pick Malik Nabers will give them a legitimate No. 1 receiver for the first time since Odell Beckham's prime.

Giants' Darius Slayton: On track for training camp
Coach Brian Daboll said Wednesday he expects Slayton (undisclosed) to be ready for the start of training camp late July, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Slayton suffered an undisclosed injury at Tuesday's minicamp practice, but it doesn't appear the Giants are overly concerned about his health. Slayton is positioned for a starting gig in New York's wide receiver corps, alongside rookie first-round addition Malik Nabers, plus incumbent Wan'Dale Robinson, who should be more effective now that he's another year removed from his ACL tear.

Giants' Darius Slayton: Leaves practice with injury
Slayton (undisclosed) departed Tuesday's practice at mandatory minicamp early due to an apparent injury, Ralph Vacchiano of Fox Sports reports.
Slayton appeared to sustain an injury after colliding with a teammate, but he was able to walk off the field under his own power. The 27-year-old remains in position to handle a starting role for the Giants, though rookie phenom Malik Nabers is likely the clear No. 1, so the Giants' offense can ill afford to have Slayton miss any time. With tight end Darren Waller having now officially retired, New York is lacking for depth behind Nabers, Slayton and third-year pro Wan'Dale Robinson. If Slayton is sidelined, more reps will open up for Jalin Hyatt, Allen Robinson and Isaiah McKenzie.
