Darius Slayton is currently sidelined with a concussion, which he sustained in Week 9, preventing him from playing in Week 10 against the Panthers. He remains in the NFL's concussion protocol and may not return until at least Week 12, benefiting from a bye week in Week 11 for additional recovery time. This marks his second concussion of the season, raising concerns about a prolonged absence. Slayton's performance has been inconsistent, with a few standout games but mostly single-digit PPR fantasy points. His production tends to suffer when the team's lead receiver, Malik Nabers, is active, limiting his fantasy relevance to a FLEX option in deep leagues. The Giants' offensive struggles, exacerbated by the loss of key players, further diminish his potential impact.
