Will Darius Slayton remain Giants’ top receiver?
No offense to Darius Slayton, but he’s probably the best example of the ramshackle state of the New York Giants’ wide receiver position over the last few years. No Giants player has more receiving yards than Slayton since he was drafted in 2019, and yet he had to take a pay cut to the veteran minimum just to stay on the team last year.
Slayton returns for 2023 with a larger contract and higher expectations. Will he remain a major factor in the Giants’ offense?
