Who Should I Start? Justyn Ross or Jalin Hyatt

The Kansas City Chiefs elevated wide receiver Justyn Ross from the practice squad to the active 53-man roster on Monday night for the Week 9 game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. It will be Ross' first game of 2024 on the team's active roster with JuJu Smith-Schuster (hamstring) missing his second straight game. KC is also without Rashee Rice (knee) and Marquise Brown (shoulder) for the rest of the year, which led them to trade for veteran DeAndre Hopkins. Hopkins should have a bigger role on Monday alongside rookie Xavier Worthy, Justin Watson and Mecole Hardman, with tight end Travis Kelce also having a higher ceiling and floor in fantasy. The 24-year-old Ross had six catches for 53 yards in his 10 regular-season games for the Chiefs a season ago. Fantasy managers should continue to ignore Ross.

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt refuted the idea that he told the team to give him more snaps or trade him. His comments were a response to a report from Jordan Raanan of ESPN, who claimed Hyatt felt that "if the Giants weren't going to use him, they should trade him." However, when speaking to Tom Canavan of the Associated Press on Friday, Hyatt clarified, "I didn't say that. I don't know where that came from, but that's false. I love being here. Whatever that rumor was, it's not true at all." The Giants selected Hyatt with an early third-round pick in 2023. Since then, he has caught 23 passes for 373 yards (all in 2023). He will continue to operate behind Malik Nabers, Wan'Dale Robinson, and Darius Slayton going forward.
