Giants third-round WR Malachi Fields stood out at rookie minicamp, with ESPN’s Jordan Raanan highlighting his work over the middle and HC John Harbaugh praising his slants and a contested catch over a defender.

Giants WR Darius Slayton recently underwent surgery to address a core-muscle injury, NFL Network's Mike Garafolo reports. Slayton will miss spring workouts but is expected to be ready for the start of training camp, Garafolo adds.

NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that the Giants are expected to sign WR Darnell Mooney to a one-year deal worth "up to" $10 million. Mooney spent the past two years with the Falcons after arriving as a free agent, but the team released him ahead of the final season of that contract. He played his first four years in Chicago, where Mooney interestingly posted his two largest reception-per-game rates in his first and second seasons (3.8 and 4.8).

Giants WR Wan'Dale Robinson (rib) and TE Theo Johnson (illness) are out for Sunday's game vs. the Cowboys. That leaves New York without its top two targets. Darius Slayton and Isaiah Hodgins will lead the WR room, with Daniel Bellinger handling lead TE duties. The matchup against Dallas makes those guys more intriguing fantasy options. QB Jaxson Dart's Week 18 outlook takes a hit sans Robinson and Johnson.

Giants WR Darius Slayton (hamstring) is not listed on the final Week 12 injury report. He returned to limited practices on Thursday and Friday after sitting out on Wednesday. Slayton carries elevated risk coming off the hamstring, but he should slide back in as an every-down player opposite WR Wan’Dale Robinson.

Giants WR Darius Slayton (hamstring) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. That at least gives him a chance to play vs. the Lions this weekend, but we'll see what Slayton does tomorrow and how he's listed on the final injury report.

Giants WR Darius Slayton (hamstring) remained sidelined for Wednesday's practice. That doesn't bode well for his chances of returning for this weekend's game vs. the Lions. Isaiah Hodgins and Jalin Hyatt operated as New York's No. 2 and 3 WRs behind Wan'Dale Robinson last week.

Giants WR Darius Slayton (hamstring) won't play vs. the Packers on Sunday, interim HC Mike Kafka said. It's a surprise after Slayton was able to play through this hamstring injury last week. His absence leaves New York with some combination of WRs Ray-Ray McCloud, Gunner Olszewski, Jalin Hyatt, and Isaiah Hodgins behind Wan'Dale Robinson. Robinson and TE Theo Johnson should control targets for New York in this one.

Giants WR Darius Slayton (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. He went down in the second quarter of last week's game but returned to a slightly limited role in the second half. We're tentatively expecting Slayton to play vs. the Packers on Sunday but will keep you updated on his status.

The Giants are moving QB Jameis Winston ahead of Russell Wilson on the depth chart, according to multiple reports. That's especially newsworthy this week, of course, because Jaxson Dart sustained a concussion in Sunday's loss to the Bears. If the rookie's not ready for this Sunday's home date with the Packers, then Winston would start.

Giants WR Darius Slayton injured a hamstring in the second quarter of Sunday's game vs. the Bears. He's officially questionable to return, but we'd be surprised to see him back out there. Slayton was off to a nice start before going down, catching all three of his targets for 85 yards.

Update: Slayton returned for the start of the second half.
