Darius Slayton Holds Low-End Flex Appeal in Week 8
New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton will return to the field in Week 8 against the Philadelphia Eagles after missing each of his team's last two games due to a hamstring injury. Slayton has recorded 12 catches for 166 yards on 18 targets across five games so far this season. However, he recorded a season-high six targets in Week 5, the lone game he has played in since star Giants wideout Malik Nabers (knee) was lost for the season with a knee injury. Slayton recorded 14 catches for 179 yards and a touchdown on 22 targets across the two games that Nabers missed in 2024. The Giants have a difficult matchup on the road against the Eagles in Week 8. Philadelphia has allowed the second-fewest receiving touchdowns (seven) in the NFL in 2025. Still, Slayton has clear target volume upside and profiles as a low-end WR4/flex option for fantasy managers in Week 8.
