WR · New York Giants — NFL fantasy hub on MySidelines

Season 2025 · 94.8 fantasy pts · 14 games · Pos rank #62

Durability Story · Watch

Darius Slayton has been durable enough to stay relevant, but not durable enough for managers to stop checking the report every week. Evidence check: injury reports across 8 different seasons; 4 games missed in the last three (2025: 3 and 2024: 1); 2025 was the rough one at 3 missed; longest on-report absence ran 2 weeks in 2019 (Wk 1–2); reinjury band sits at High. The news desk has been quieter lately, so the structured history is doing most of the talking.

For fantasy, Darius is startable but fragile: keep a handcuff or streaming backup ready when the next soft-tissue note lands.

Based on injury history + recent reporting. Not a medical diagnosis.
