Who Should I Start? Jalin Hyatt or Mason Tipton

Sunday, July 27, 3:52 PM

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt was back in action on Sunday after being held out of Friday's practice due to cramping/tightness. Hyatt was evaluated during warmups and given the green light. With Wan'Dale Robinson missing time in each of the last two practices, the noticeably bulked-up third-year wideout is looking to work his way into a larger role after seeing only 19 targets as a rookie and 40 in 2024. While the Giants' offense is built to run through Malik Nabers, Hyatt's speed made him a deep ball specialist in college, so he well could find himself on the receiving end of the occasional Russell Wilson moonball. This probably isn't enough to make him fantasy relevant in most formats, but for those with a large enough portfolio, he could be worth the occasional swing in 20-round best ball drafts.

Injuries to the New Orleans Saints wide receiver room cleared a path up the depth chart for rookie Mason Tipton. With Chris Olave (concussion), Rashid Shaheed (knee), and Bub Means (ankle) on injured reserve, and Cedrick Wilson Jr. (shoulder) out for Week 10, there seemed to be ample opportunity for Tipton to soak up some targets. Sadly, that wasn't the case as Tipton did not draw a single target in last week's game against the Falcons. Marquez Valdes-Scantling was the main beneficiary of the Saints' lack of receiving talent, catching three balls for 109 yards and two scores against Atlanta, while running back Alvin Kamara was the preferred option on short routes. In Week 11, MVS can be expected to remain the team's deep option and if Wilson shakes his questionable tag, Tipton will have a hard time commanding targets against him or Kamara. He can safely be left on the waiver wire.
