Who Should I Start? Jalin Hyatt or Keon Coleman

Sunday, January 4, 12:08 PM

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt (illness) is officially inactive for Sunday's Week 18 contest against the Dallas Cowboys. Hyatt was listed as questionable. He missed two consecutive practices before upgrading to a limited participant on Friday. The 24-year-old had been a healthy scratch in each of the last two weeks, and he played just four snaps over the last five games. As a result, it's unclear if Hyatt's absence is related to his illness or if he's merely a healthy scratch. Regardless, his absence is notable in a game where the Giants will also be without Wan'Dale Robinson (rib), Ryan Miller (coach's decision), and Theo Johnson (illness). Darius Slayton will operate as the Giants' No. 1 receiver while Gunner Olszewski, Isaiah Hodgins, and Xavier Gipson also get more involved.

Buffalo Bills owner Terry Pegula pinned the selection of wide receiver Keon Coleman in the 2024 draft on the coaching staff and said that general manager Brandon Beane was "being a team player," and that Coleman wasn't at the top of Beane's list at the time, according to Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic. Buffalo fired head coach Sean McDermott on Monday and promoted Beane to president of football operations. The Bills drafted Coleman in the second round in 2024 out of Florida State, and he's been a bust in his two seasons with the team, catching 67 of 116 targets for 970 yards and eight touchdowns in 26 games. Not only has his production been a disappointment, but he has also dealt with maturity issues and has been suspended by the team for his actions off the field, which include arriving late to a team meeting. With McDermott now gone, that doesn't bode well for Coleman being able to turn things around in Year 3.
