Should You Start or Sit Darius Slayton in Week 13?
Darius Slayton was shut out in Tommy DeVito’s debut, and that has his thin profile fading fast. He wasn’t to be viewed as anything other than Malik Nabers insurance in the first place and now I’m not sure I’d rank him as a top-40 option should New York’s WR1 suffer some sort of injury over the final 1.5 months.
This season, Slayton’s 15% on-field target share is the second lowest of his career and with an aDOT that is below his career norm, neither the quality nor the quantity of targets is worth investing in.
