In the upcoming Week 6 game between the New York Giants and Cincinnati Bengals, the successes of both teams are mixed. The Giants, who just defeated the Seattle Seahawks, are without star receiver Malik Nabers due to a concussion, with Darius Slayton stepping in as their primary target. Meanwhile, the Bengals continue to struggle despite their offensive prowess. Fantasy football advice suggests starting both Slayton, who had a strong performance last week, and rookie Tyrone Tracy Jr., who was outstanding in his previous game, while starting in place of Devin Singletary , which is questionable for Sunday night.

Through the numbers

• Darius Slayton had 8 receptions for 122 yards and 1 touchdown last week with a 35% target percentage.
• Tyrone Tracy ran for 129 yards on 18 carries and had an 82% rushing percentage in his final game.

state of affairs

• The Giants are 2-3 and gaining momentum after their last win.
• The Bengals enter the game at 1-4 and perform poorly on defense against wide receivers and running backs.

What’s next?

Slayton is expected to have another strong performance against the Bengals’ weak defense, while Tracy’s performance could further solidify his role regardless of Singletary’s status. Managers should closely monitor Singletary’s playing time decisions.

Conclusion

Fantasy managers should be confident in using Slayton and Tracy this week, as both players have favorable matchups and potential for significant points given the current weaknesses in the Bengals’ defensive lineup.
