Fantasy Football Player Notes

Shepard is dealing with turf toe, and has been placed on IR. He wasn't all that involved in the offense when he did play in his short time this year, as Darius Slayton took a bigger role. Shepard is droppable in nearly all formats.

Slayton had a monstrous Week 1 against the Steelers with two touchdown passes, and looked to have a great rapport with Daniel Jones. Golden Tate was out for the game, and there are plenty of mouths to feed for the Giants, but Slayton immediately moves into close to WR3 range, and another big performance would firmly plant him an every-week starter.
