Jalin Hyatt News
Sunday, June 14, 11:18 AM
New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt had a "strong" minicamp earlier this month, according to Jordan Raanan of ESPN. A third-round pick in the 2023 NFL Draft, Hyatt is entering the final year of his rookie contract and has struggled to carve out a consistent role with the Giants to this point in his career. Across eight games in 2025, the 24-year-old recorded just five receptions for 35 yards on 14 targets. However, New York enters the 2026 season with a seemingly open competition for playing time at wide receiver, particularly with star wideout Malik Nabers (knee) still recovering from a knee injury. Hyatt will also will be working with a new coaching staff in 2026, which could offer the fresh start he needs. In deeper league formats, fantasy managers may want to consider throwing a dart at Hyatt if he continues to draw rave reviews throughout the rest of the summer.

Jayden Higgins News
Friday, August 21, 10:33 AM
Houston Texans wide receiver Jayden Higgins was officially placed on season-ending injured reserve Friday, according to Adam Schefter. Higgins tore his ACL during Tuesday's joint practice with the Las Vegas Raiders, ending his second NFL season before it could begin. The 23-year-old was coming off a promising rookie year in which he caught 41 passes for 525 yards and six touchdowns while starting 10 of 17 games. His role had grown as the season went along, making this a tough loss for a Houston passing game that was expecting more from him in Year 2. The Texans will now have to replace those snaps and targets behind Nico Collins. Higgins can be dropped in all redraft leagues, while dynasty managers will have to stash him through what will be a lengthy recovery.
