Who Should I Start? Isaiah Hodgins or Lawrence Cager

Friday, March 22, 2:04 PM

The New York Giants reached an agreement on Friday to re-sign wide receiver Isaiah Hodgins to an undisclosed deal. Hodgins will return to New York for his second full season. The former sixth-round pick by the Buffalo Bills in 2020 out of Oregon State joined the G-Men midway through the 2022 season and had 33 catches for 351 yards and four touchdowns in eight games (five starts) to close out the year. In 17 games (nine starts) for the Giants in 2023, Hodgins disappointed, as did most of the rest of the team's offense, with 21 catches on 33 targets for 230 yards and three touchdowns. The 25-year-old has shown flashes the last two years with the Giants, but he's not going to have a big enough role on offense in 2024 to warrant fantasy consideration, especially with the team adding Isaiah McKenzie this offseason.

New York Giants tight end Lawrence Cager caught one of New York's two touchdowns in their 49-17 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. With a blowout already well underway, the Dallas defense let their foot off of the gas pedal and allowed Cager to catch a ten-yard score. It was his only reception of the contest. The reserve tight end only has three catches this season (all against Dallas) and is seeing increased time on the field with the injury to Darren Waller (hamstring). There aren't any reasons to roster the 26-year-old in any fantasy football format.
