Darius Slayton In Concussion Protocol

Giants WR Darius Slayton sustained a concussion in the Week 9 loss to the Commanders. It's his second concussion of the season, with the first coming in the opener. We'll track Slayton's progress through the protocol this coming week, but consider him no better than 50/50 to play vs. the Panthers next Sunday morning in Germany.

Giants WR Darius Slayton is questionable to return to Sunday's game vs. the Browns with a thumb injury. We'll update his status when we know more. Slayton's absence should mean more snaps for WR Jalin Hyatt.

The Giants added WR Malik Nabers to the practice report as limited Thursday with a knee injury. That indicates he hurt the joint in practice. We'll watch for more details on the issue and the rookie's Week 2 outlook.
