Darius Slayton is enjoying seeing his division rivals falter in the playoffs.

The New York Giants wide receiver trolled the Dallas Cowboys and Philadelphia Eagles after the two teams’ struggles in their wild-card matchups.

“Eagle and cowboys collapse back to back?” he posted on X.

The Cowboys lost in upset fashion Sunday night to the Green Bay Packers after looking like one of the top teams in the NFC heading into the postseason. Now, the Eagles could be facing similar fate as they trail the Tampa Bay Buccaneers late.

The end of the regular season was not pretty for Philadelphia as the Eagles lost five of their last six games. The skid has seemingly followed them into the postseason and they could be facing a wild-card exit.

Slayton and the Giants also got the last laugh over the Eagles in the regular season, beating them 27-10 in the final game of the year. In that game, Slayton was responsible for 62 yards and a touchdown.

While Slayton and the rest of the Giants have to watch the playoffs from home, they can at least enjoy them a little more knowing their division rivals are struggling.
