Overview
- Giants wideout Darius Slayton had surgery for a core-muscle injury and is expected to be ready for training camp, according to NFL Network reports relayed by Yahoo Sports.
- The team will run spring practices without its likely starting outside receivers, as rookie Malik Nabers continues ACL rehab with an uncertain timeline.
- With two starters sidelined, free-agent additions Darnell Mooney and Calvin Austin and third-round pick Malachi Fields are in line for extra reps.
- The missed spring time could slow early timing for second-year quarterback Jaxson Dart, though camp is the main window for installing the passing game.
- Coaches have left the door open to adding help at receiver, with an Odell Beckham Jr. move framed as possible only if it makes sense for both sides.
