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 (coach's decision) is a healthy scratch for Sunday's Week 16 contest against the Minnesota Vikings. The former third-round pick continues to be an afterthought in the Giants' offense, and this week, it will cost him his spot on the gameday roster. Hyatt played only 6% of the offensive snaps in Week 15, and he has caught just five of his 14 targets for 35 yards this season. His absence is likely a direct result of Gunner Olszewski (concussion) returning from his one-week absence. The 24-year-old can be left on waivers in fantasy football.
