Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton underwent core muscle surgery after the 2025 season and won’t participate in the majority of the offseason program.

The Giants expect him to be fully cleared for training camp and could still have interest in signing veteran free agent Odell Beckham Jr., the New York Post reported Thursday.

Slayton and fellow wide receiver Malik Nabers (knee) are both recovering from surgeries. Nabers went down with a season-ending right knee injury. He had surgery to repair his torn ACL in a September win over the Los Angeles Chargers.

Free agent Wan’Dale Robinson signed with the Tennessee Titans. He led the Giants with 92 receptions for 1,014 yards, more than double the next closest wide receiver’s production (Slayton) in 2025 with Nabers on injured reserve most of the season.

The Giants drafted jumbo wide receiver Malachi Fields (6-foor-4, 200 pounds) in the third round of the 2026 draft, signed free agents Darnell Mooney (Falcons, Bears) and Calvin Austin III (Steelers) and currently list 13 wide receivers on their 90-man offseason roster.

Slayton, 29, had 37 receptions for 538 yards and one touchdown in 2025. He was a fifth-round pick of the Giants in 2019 and has 296 career receptions for 4,435 yards with 22 touchdowns.
