It’s been three years since the New York Giants last shocked the NFL world with a successful first campaign under the Joe Schoen-Brian Daboll regime during the 2022 season. While they’ve made countless improvements to various weaknesses on the roster, particularly under center with a whole new quarterback room led by projected starter Russell Wilson, the Giants are about to face the league’s toughest schedule, and most of their talent is still very young and looking to earn their stripes at the highest level of football. In that case, many will likely watch for how critical pieces like Wilson, wide receiver Malik Nabers, and rookie edge rusher Abdul Carter perform, given that all are leading talents on both sides of the ball. One person not looking plainly at the star players is CBS Sports writer Zachary Pereles, who in his new list of the 50 under-the-radar players who could help shape the 2025 season, thinks that not enough is being said about two different names in the Giants’ locker room—wide receiver Darius Slayton and cornerback Deonte Banks.
