Who Should I Start? Curtis Samuel or Jalin Hyatt

Friday, November 28, 12:20 PM

Buffalo Bills head coach Sean McDermott said that wide receiver Curtis Samuel (elbow, knee) will not play on Sunday in Week 13 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, according to Maddy Glab of BuffaloBills.com. Samuel will miss a second straight game, and it's unclear if the 29-year-old will be able to return for a Week 14 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. Samuel has not been on the fantasy radar at all in 2025, as he's caught only seven passes on nine targets for 81 yards and one touchdown on the year. He was unable to take advantage of second-year wideout Keon Coleman being benched for the last two games for disciplinary reasons. Samuel was off the fantasy radar in most leagues last year as well in Buffalo, as he had a weak 31-253-1 line in 14 regular-season games.

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt is a healthy scratch for the Monday night game against the New England Patriots to close out Week 13 action, according to Dan Salomone of Giants.com. This will be just the second time all year, and the first since Week 8, that Hyatt will sit without dealing with an injury. The 24-year-old will be the odd-man out for a receiving corps that will roll with Wan'Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton, Isaiah Hodgins, Gunner Olszewski, and Dalen Cambre as they look to upset the Pats in primetime. The Giants will head into their bye in Week 14, so the next chance Hyatt will have to play will be on Sunday, Dec. 14, against the division-rival Washington Commanders. Hyatt has not been very involved in New York's offense in his third year in the league, catching five of 13 targets for only 35 yards and no touchdowns in seven games.
