Isaiah Hodgins News
Monday, March 9, 4:47 PM
The New York Giants re-signed wide receiver Isaiah Hodgins on Monday to an undisclosed one-year deal, a source told Jordan Schultz of FOX Sports. Hodgins began last season on the Pittsburgh Steelers' practice squad before eventually being signed to the Giants' active roster in November. The 27-year-old former sixth-round pick by the Buffalo Bills in 2020 out of Oregon State caught just 10 of his 19 targets for 115 yards and one touchdown in seven games (five starts) for the G-Men in 2025. At best, he'll most likely be competing for the WR3 role in New York now that Wan'Dale Robinson has left in free agency. And with new tight end Isaiah Likely in town, Hodgins could be the fourth or fifth option for young quarterback Jaxson Dart in the passing game. In his five years in the NFL, Hodgins has only 70 catches for 749 yards and eight touchdowns in 38 games played (19 starts) for the Giants and Bills.

Kevin Austin Jr. News
Sunday, January 4, 8:27 AM
New Orleans Saints wide receiver Kevin Austin Jr. is expected to have an expanded role in Sunday's game against the Atlanta Falcons. The Saints will be without Chris Olave (illness) and Mason Tipton (groin) for the regular-season finale. The absence of those players should push Austin into the No. 1 wideout role in this offense. With all the injuries to the Saints' wideouts, Dante Pettis should also see an increase in target share on Sunday. Austin made himself known to the league when he hauled in four receptions for 52 yards and a touchdown in Week 17's win over the Tennessee Titans. Austin was able to do that with Olave healthy for that game, which means he should be able to produce more without him this weekend. Fantasy managers with something on the line this week can use Austin as a FLEX play, or in DFS contests, might want to target Austin as he's priced at only $3,400 on DraftKings.
