Darius Slayton, Sterling Shepard Miss Practice With Hamstring Injuries

Giants wide receivers Darius Slayton and Sterling Shepard both missed practice on Wednesday with hamstring injuries they suffered Week 3. Both wideouts missed Week 4 and are in danger of missing this week's matchup with the Cowboys. No. 1 wide receiver Kenny Golladay was limited in practice on Wednesday with a groin injury. Golladay missed practice time the last two weeks with a hip injury, thus we do not think the groin injury is new. Sometimes hip and groin injuries are interrelated because they both can involve core muscles. If Slayton and Shepard can't play Sunday, Golladay will be the go-to-guy once again. He finished with 6 catches and 116 yards against the Saints last week. We expect him to be just as effective healthwise against the Cowboys. Fourth-string wide receiver Kadarius Toney had 6 catches for 78 yards against the Saints.
