Overview
- New Orleans beat New York 26-14 as the Giants committed five consecutive turnover-ending drives, a stretch Brian Daboll called decisive.
- Pressed into the lead role, Darius Slayton dropped a deep ball, lost a fumble stripped by Demario Davis that set up a field goal, finished with three catches for 31 yards, and left with a hamstring issue he says he plans to play through Thursday.
- Giants receivers produced just nine catches for 61 yards, with Jalin Hyatt targeted late without a catch and an interception, and Beaux Collins involved in a route miscue that led to a pick.
- After Malik Nabers’ season-ending ACL tear, the team chose not to add a wideout and went to Week 5 with only four receivers, a decision analysts linked to roughly $1.6 million in cap space.
- With a short turnaround to face the Eagles, reported options include promoting Lil’Jordan Humphrey and exploring practice-squad targets such as Isaiah Hodgins, while one recent workout participant, Samori Toure, signed with Denver.
