Preparing for his first season with the New York Giants and his 14th in the NFL, starting quarterback Russell Wilson is enthused about the team's daily improvement in all facets of the game at this week's minicamp.

Slayton, a downfield threat entering his seventh with the Giants, stands to benefit from the addition of Wilson, whose deep ball remains his go-to. Wilson has already demonstrated a propensity to throw down the field, even on concepts when an underneath receiver is the primary read, Slayton said.

Upon entering the NFL, Darius Slayton had the rare opportunity to be drafted and grow alongside his quarterback. However, his journey with Daniels Jones came to an end midway through last season when the New York Giants waived the former top-ten pick.
