The writing appeared to be on the wall after the Giants played their final preseason game and The Post\u2019s Paul Schwartz reported that Slayton\u2019s spot on the roster was in jeopardy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Slayton\u2019s Giants tenure started in 2019 when Big Blue selected him in the fifth round of the draft, and he would go on to spend seven seasons in East Rutherford.\u00a0<\/p>\n

He ends his time with the Giants with 296 catches for 4,435 receiving yards and 22 touchdowns.\u00a0<\/p>\n

However, it seems Slayton is already drumming up interest from other teams now that he\u2019s on the open market.\u00a0<\/p>\n

NFL insider Josina Anderson reported that three teams had already reached out for preliminary talks with the wide receiver.\u00a0<\/p>\n

No teams were named in the report, but she suggested keeping an eye on the Colts, considering the preexisting relationship between Slayton and quarterback Daniel Jones.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\n<\/div>\n

The Giants\u2019 decision to move on from their longest-tenured player on the roster helped save $3 million in cap space for this year. The Giants attempted to move Slayton, but things never fell into place, so the decision to cut him was made.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Speaking with reporters last week, Slayton had said his presence brought \u201cjust another playmaker\u201d into the Giants\u2019 receiving room.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel like we have a bunch in the room, a lot of really talented guys that we\u2019ve added to the roster. I see myself as one of those guys in whatever capacity that I can be,\u201d he said at the time.<\/p>\n
