Kudos to tight end Daniel Bellinger for putting together an impressive Week 5 performance to save himself from this spot. The 25-year-old ended the game with four receptions for 52 yards. He was one of the few bright spots for the New York Giants in an otherwise brutal afternoon. The same cannot be said of wide receiver Darius Slayton.
Sunday’s effort against the New Orleans Saints all but confirmed the G-Men can no longer wait for him to figure it out. The 28-year-old caught three of his six targets for 31 yards. That’s not an objectively horrible stat line, but context matters.
