        Giants Tell Us Something About Their WRs By Dumping Darius Slayton

        The Giants on Monday released WR Darius Slayton. It's a surprising move but shouldn't come as a total shock. SNY's John Flanigan says Slayton "was said to have been on the bubble ahead of last weekend's roster cutdown." But that Slayton stuck around through that before getting ousted makes it a little stranger. The 29-year-old has been with the team since 2019 and was signed through 2027. The move doesn't appear to save the Giants any money or cap space. That could signal the team feels the need to add a player at another position.

        The Athletic's Dan Duggan believes Giants WR Malachi Fields is making a push for the No. 2 WR job following his preseason debut on Saturday. Fields worked in with the first-team offense in that one, running a route on 4 of QB Jaxson Dart's 7 dropbacks. He caught all 3 of his targets for 34 yards, including a 15-yard TD from Dart.

        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.

        The New York Giants selected Notre Dame WR Malachi Fields with the 74th pick overall in Round 3 of the 2026 NFL Draft. Fields bet on himself after earning third-team All-ACC honors at Virginia in 2024 (58-808-5), transferring to Notre Dame for his fifth season. The spotlight got brighter, but the production didn’t. Fields tallied 36 catches, 640 yards, and 5 TDs for a run-leaning offense. He ranked second on the team in target share, reception share, and receiving yards share. Fields’ statistical decline raised questions about how much situation drove his earlier output. But his traits still demand attention. At 6’4 and 220 pounds, Fields looks the part of an NFL boundary receiver. He brings a wide catch radius, dependable hands in space, and better run-after-catch ability than most receivers his size.
