| 4/22/25 | The History Behind Giants' New Jersey Number Assignments. Slayton, who, along with defensive lineman Dexter Lawrence II, is one of the longest-tenured members of the current roster, has switched to jersey No. 18. Slayton, who previously wore No. 86 since joining the Giants as a fifth-round draft pick in 2019, likely chose to. Interestingly, No. 81, famously worn by receiver Amani Toomer and way before him receiver Ed McCaffrey, defensive end Jack Gregory, Hall of Fame defensive end Andy Robustelli, and end Jim Lee Howell, has been vacant for the Giants since receiver Alex Bachman wore it during the 2021 season.
