Darius Slayton and Daniel Jones both came to the New York Giants in the 2019 NFL Draft. Slayton, a wide receiver drafted in Round 5, spent their six years together in New York defending the quarterback taken No. 6 overall.
Jones is gone from the Giants, having moved on to the Minnesota Vikings last season and now to the Indianapolis Colts. Slayton, though, is still defending the quarterback.
Appearing on the ‘NFL Spotlight with Ari Meirov’ podcast, Slayton insisted that Jones was not solely to blame for the struggles the team experienced during most of their time together.
