New York Giants HC Pat Shurmur impressed with rookie Darius Slayton

Going into this season, New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning has a multitude of targets. With receivers such as Sterling Shepard, Golden Tate and Corey Coleman, Manning should have options on each passing play.

But one receiver not receiving attention is the rookie Darius Slayton.

The Giants chose Slayton in the fifth round, No. 171 overall out of Auburn University. The young receiver will look to compete for their No. 4 receiver slot, as Shep, Tate, and Coleman are working in with the first team.
