Over the last six seasons, wide receiver Darius Slayton has been among the New York Giants’ most reliable playmakers. However, the 28-year-old veteran is set to be an unrestricted free agent this offseason, and it seems among fans that letting him walk and sign with another team is a foregone conclusion. But should it be?
The Giants just got burned in the 2024 offseason, letting their top free agents (Saquon Barkley and Xavier McKinney) walk with minimal effort of re-signing them. Perhaps this offseason they should give more consideration to retaining a homegrown talent like Slayton.
