Jalin Hyatt Fantasy Stats

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.

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt (coach's decision) is a healthy scratch for Sunday's Week 16 contest against the Minnesota Vikings. The former third-round pick continues to be an afterthought in the Giants' offense, and this week, it will cost him his spot on the gameday roster. Hyatt played only 6% of the offensive snaps in Week 15, and he has caught just five of his 14 targets for 35 yards this season. His absence is likely a direct result of Gunner Olszewski (concussion) returning from his one-week absence. The 24-year-old can be left on waivers in fantasy football.

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt is a healthy scratch for the Monday night game against the New England Patriots to close out Week 13 action, according to Dan Salomone of Giants.com. This will be just the second time all year, and the first since Week 8, that Hyatt will sit without dealing with an injury. The 24-year-old will be the odd-man out for a receiving corps that will roll with Wan'Dale Robinson, Darius Slayton, Isaiah Hodgins, Gunner Olszewski, and Dalen Cambre as they look to upset the Pats in primetime. The Giants will head into their bye in Week 14, so the next chance Hyatt will have to play will be on Sunday, Dec. 14, against the division-rival Washington Commanders. Hyatt has not been very involved in New York's offense in his third year in the league, catching five of 13 targets for only 35 yards and no touchdowns in seven games.

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt should handle increased opportunities against the Green Bay Packers in Week 11 with Darius Slayton (hamstring) sidelined. The 24-year-old is still searching for some sort of third-year breakout, as he's never finished higher than WR98 (PPR) in an individual season, nor has he scored a touchdown. His usage has remained minimal this year, as he's caught just three passes for 17 yards. The 24-year-old hasn't played an offensive snap since Week 7, but that should change this week as Hyatt steps into a larger role with Slayton ruled out. In fact, he'll likely operate as the team's No. 3 wide receiver behind Wan'Dale Robinson and Gunner Olszewski. The Giants enter this weekend with Jameis Winston as their temporary starting quarterback, and his gunslinging mentality should bode well for the Giants' receivers. However, despite the increased role and intriguing quarterback pairing, Hyatt's lack of a track record makes him tough to trust in your fantasy lineups. He has WR3/flex upside, but managers can probably find better options elsewhere on the waiver wire.

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt is receiving another opportunity to prove his fantasy value in Week 10 against the Chicago Bears. Yet he remains an unreliable option given his minimal production this season. Hyatt has done little with his chances, registering only three receptions for 17 yards on the year, making him essentially unplayable in fantasy leagues. The silver lining is the opponent: the Bears rank 30th against WRs, giving up a league-high 38.63 points per contest. Furthermore, Chicago has allowed 20 passing touchdowns on the season, indicating a high-scoring environment where Hyatt could benefit from a deep shot. Still, based on his season-long performance of only five targets, he is not to be started in any leagues.

With star wide receiver Malik Nabers (knee) suffering a season-ending knee injury in Week 4, there have been plenty of opportunities for wide receivers to step up for the New York Giants. Unfortunately for both himself and the team, third-year wideout Jalin Hyatt has failed to cash in on that opportunity. Across five games played in 2025, Hyatt has recorded three catches for 17 yards on nine targets. He's clearly behind both Wan'Dale Robinson and Darius Slayton on the Giants' wide receiver depth chart, and Hyatt was out-snapped by wideouts Lil'Jordan Humphrey and Beaux Collins in New York's Week 8 loss to the Denver Broncos. Across his last 19 games played, Hyatt has just 11 total receptions. He should remain off the radar of fantasy managers.

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt (ankle) no longer carries an injury designation heading into Sunday's game versus the Denver Broncos. The wideout was limited at practice throughout the week. Fortunately, he'll be out there, which is good news, considering the G-Men won't have Darius Slayton (hamstring) in Week 7. Hyatt has been quiet from a fantasy standpoint throughout the 2025 campaign, collecting only three of his eight targets for 17 yards. While he could see an uptick in targets from Jaxson Dart behind Wan'Dale Robinson, he still shouldn't be considered a practical fantasy option against a tough Broncos defense.

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt is a deep-league lottery ticket who will finally get an opportunity to prove his worth in Week 5 against the Saints. With Malik Nabers out for the year, the third-year speedster will assume the WR3 role, and his familiarity with rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart from second-team reps could lead to immediate targets. Despite having zero fantasy points this season, Hyatt's world-class speed makes him an intriguing desperation play against a vulnerable New Orleans secondary. The Saints have been susceptible to big plays, allowing the second-most passing touchdowns in the NFL (9), creating a scenario where Hyatt could finally break loose for a long score.

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt has neither been targeted nor recorded a catch so far in 2025. However, he could be in line for more opportunities following the unfortunate news that star Giants wideout Malik Nabers (knee) will miss the remainder of the season with a torn ACL. In 35 career games with the Giants across two-plus seasons, Hyatt has recorded 31 catches for 435 yards on 59 targets. He will likely remain behind Darius Slayton and Wan'Dale Robinson on the Giants' wide receiver depth chart, but Hyatt could carve out a role as the team's WR3. Hyatt is not yet worth rostering in fantasy, but he's a player for managers to monitor in the coming weeks.

New York Giants wide receiver Jalin Hyatt (undisclosed) returned for Wednesday's joint practice against the New York Jets, according to Paul Schwart of the New York Post. It's unclear why Hyatt was held out of the preaseason opener on Saturday against the Buffalo Bills, but he's back at practice now and should be able to suit up for the second preseason game against the Jets. It's unclear if his recent absences had anything to do with the minor lower-body injury that he suffered early in training camp. The 23-year-old should have more opportunities on offense with Malik Nabers (shoulder, toe) still being held out with multiple nagging injuries. In 16 games in 2024, Hyatt disappointed with eight catches on only 19 targets for 62 yards. Hyatt isn't even in the top 100 receivers at RotoBaller for the upcoming season.
