Darius Slayton Fantasy Football Outlook (2025)

After settling in as a solid WR5, Darius Slayton's star dimmed further in 2024 when he slipped to WR78 in fantasy points per game. This can be attributed to the Giants' horrendous quarterback situation. In Weeks 1-9 with Daniel Jones last season, Slayton was on pace for 60 receptions and 886 receiving yards. During that time, he had a 16% target share, 1.63 yards per route run, and a 15.5% first-read share (per Fantasy Points Data). Nothing here jumps off the page as anything more than a possible bye-week flex or best ball correlation pick for 2025.
