Kadarius Toney has landed on the injury report, limited with a hamstring issue.

Wan'Dale Robinson was a DNP for Thursday's practice, so if Toney finds himself with an injury designation or generally residing in the Giants doghouse, the starting 3WR set will once again be Sterling Shepard, Kenny Golladay, and Richie James. Daniel Jones is receiving no favors from New York's skill position group outside of Saquon Barkley and, as such, is currently ranked as 4for4's QB23.

Giants and WR Darius Slayton agreed to paycut that will keep him on team source says. Drops his salary from $2.54m to league min ($965k). Saves Giants about $1.6 against cap. Slayton has a chance to earn some back with playtime incentives. He’ll be on the field for practice today.

Slayton was excused from practice Tuesday and there was speculation he was getting released. Slayton will have to some work to do to climb the depth chart and earn playing time.

Giants WR Darius Slayton was not at practice. His absence was excused by the team, per source.

The tweet went on to say, for the sake of connecting dots, Blake Martinez was excused from practice last week and was released a day later. It's unclear if Slayton's situation will have a similar outcome, the tweet added. The Giants have been rumored to be making changes at WR. The team seems to be stuck with Golladay and his contract and youngsters Toney and Robinson probably aren't going anywhere, which could mean Shepard or Slayton end up on the roster bubble at some point. The Giants WR situation is one to watch once the season starts and roles are sorted out.

Though his development slowed as the summer moved along, second-round pick Wan'Dale Robinson is slated to start the season in the slot, apparently bumping Sterling Shepard down the pecking order.

Robinson's -0.2 average depth of target in the preseason portends a Rondale Moore-type rookie season, so let's hope the team was simply being vanilla with his usage to avoid tipping their hat. Regardless of who logs the most snaps from the slot this season, the Giants' receiving group leaves much to be desired.

Daboll said Kadarius Toney is “improving.” He had a good practice yesterday. They’ve ramped him up the last few weeks. “Hopefully he’ll be ready” for Week 1.

Toney can't seem to stay on the field so far through his young career. When he has been healthy, he's certainly flashed potential. As we point out in his bio, he's actually targeted pretty frequently whenever he was on the field. In fact, he was fifth in targets per route run among the 105 receivers with at least 38 targets and was 11th in yards per route run in that same sample. With Golladay, Shepard and Slayton having their own issues, Toney has a chance to emerge as the team's WR1, perhaps along with the rookie Robinson. The Giants WR situation is a fluid one at the moment.

Kadarius Toney's hamstring has kept him out of team periods over the last two-plus weeks and it would seem possible that it leaks into the regular season.

With Kenny Golladay on the verge of being cut if it weren't for the millions of dollars of dead cap space it would create, the Giants receiving group has question marks abound. Toney is currently 4for4's highest ranked wide receiver, clocking in as the WR59. Daniel Jones once again has his work cut out for him, albeit with a much more inspiring coaching staff behind him for year number four.

WR Kadarius Toney hasn’t participated in any team periods. Hamstring seemed to be bothering him during individual drills.

It always seems to be something with Toney. The Giants are deep at WR but they all seem to have their issues. It could be the reason why the team is singing the praises of guys like Johnson and Sills, saying they could not only make the team but also play. Reports say Toney's hamstring isn't serious so the team is maybe just being cautious here.

Thought this comment from Brian Daboll definitely stood out.

“Collin Johnson, David Sills, they’ve stepped their game up. I mean they’re right in the mix. Not just to make a team but to play.”

You'll have to search pretty far down the depth chart at WR to find Johnson and Sills. This very well could be coach-speak and a wake-up call for those bigger names ahead of them. The Giants are deep in terms of names at WR, but you can certainly find fault with most of the names too.

After missing the preseason opener, Toney does not look to be on path for Week 2 due to a leg injury.

Toney played in only 10 games last season, dealing with issues pertaining to his hamstring, ankle, thumb, quad, oblique and shoulder. That was followed by an off-season filled with trade rumors and the selection of a similar type of receiver in the draft. It's difficult to buy in with all the negativity surrounding him.

The Giants plan this summer with WR Kadarius Toney: “Let him go out there and practice,” coach Brian Daboll said.

Daboll said in another report Toney is ready to practice and Raanan's tweet added the team will make modifications off that if necessary. Toney shined if only for a brief moment last season before injuries derailed him. The team is deep at WR in name but is looking for a lot more production from the position.
