Who Should I Start? Van Jefferson or Jalin Hyatt

Monday, August 4, 7:52 PM

The Tennessee Titans listed wide receivers Calvin Ridley, Tyler Lockett and Van Jefferson in their starting three-receiver set on Monday on their first official depth chart of training camp, according to Titans beat writer Jim Wyatt. Tennessee signed Jefferson to a one-year deal in the offseason to give them veteran depth at the position. While the 29-year-old is listed as a starter right now, that won't be a guarantee come Week 1 of the regular season. He is playing for his fourth NFL team since the start of the 2023 campaign and had just 24 receptions on 40 targets for 276 yards and two touchdowns in 17 regular-season games (12 starts) with a Pittsburgh offense that had plenty of opportunity in the passing game. Fantasy managers will be avoiding Jefferson in 12-team leagues as a depth option in an offense led by a rookie QB in 2025.

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt (undisclosed) didn't travel with the team for their preseason game against the Buffalo Bills on Saturday. Head coach Brian Daboll said Hyatt is currently dealing with an undisclosed injury. The severity of the injury is unknown, so hopefully fantasy managers will get more information soon. Fantasy managers should stay tuned to see if Hyatt returns to practice early next week. The 23-year-old is currently competing for a depth spot behind Malik Nabers, Wan'Dale Robinson, and Darius Slayton.
