Giants Re-Sign Isaiah Hodgins to One-Year Deal

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.

Ricky Pearsall Officially Undergoes Knee Surgery

Thursday, August 13, 8:52 AM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) underwent season-ending surgery for his PCL injury to his right knee, according to David Lombardi of The San Francisco Standard. In Pearsall's social-media post, the former first-rounder said he had never missed a game due to a football injury in his entire career at any level. The 49ers expect Pearsall to miss anywhere from six to 12 months, and he's already been ruled out for the entire 2025 season. The 25-year-old played in just 20 games (13 starts) in his first two years in the NFL due to injury, including only nine starts last year. He's recorded 67 catches on 99 targets for 928 yards and three touchdowns in his 20 regular-season games. It's unclear if Pearsall will be ready for the start of training camp and the regular season in 2027. Pearsall's redraft and dynasty/keeper value has hit rock bottom. In his absence in 2026, rookie second-round receiver De'Zhaun Stribling will have an opportunity to carve out a larger role alongside veterans Mike Evans, Deebo Samuel Sr., and Christian Kirk.
