Who Should I Start? Jalin Hyatt or Tory Horton

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.

Seattle Seahawks rookie wide receiver Tory Horton "continues to flash in practice," according to Michael-Shawn Dugar of The Athletic. A fifth-round draft pick out of Colorado State, Horton recorded 265 catches for 3,615 yards and 27 touchdowns across five collegiate seasons. The Seahawks have Jaxon Smith-Njigba and Cooper Kupp entrenched as their top two wide receivers, and veteran free-agent addition Marquez Valdes-Scantling is penciled in as a starter on the outside. That leaves Horton fighting with the likes of Jake Bobo, Steven Sims, and Dareke Young for a depth role in Seattle. While Horton is unlikely to make an impact in fantasy right away, he could be a name to monitor if he continues to impress throughout the preseason.
