Giants' Slayton and Banks face competition for starting roles

As the New York Giants prepare for joint practices with the Miami Dolphins, WR Darius Slayton and CB Deonte Banks find their starting positions at risk. Slayton, previously a reliable target, must prove himself against emerging talents like Malachi Fields and Darnell Mooney, who are vying for roles in a revamped receiving corps. Banks faces challenges from newly acquired players Paulson Adebo and Jevon Holland, increasing pressure to secure his starting spot. The upcoming practices will be crucial for both players as they demonstrate their abilities against a live opposing team. Performance during this period may determine their fortunes as the Giants finalize their lineup ahead of the season opener.
