Not targeted over 20 snaps Sunday
Hyatt did not receive a target in Sunday's 35-14 Week 15 loss to the Ravens.
Analysis: Hyatt's 20 offensive snaps were fourth most among Giants wideouts, well behind Malik Nabers (64), Wan'Dale Robinson (52) and Darius Slayton (46). Hyatt wasn't able to draw a target while he was on the field, marking the third time over his past five games that he hasn't had a ball thrown his way. Given his paltry production this season and low standing on the depth chart, as well as the overall struggles of New York's passing game, Hyatt is off the fantasy radar in virtually all formats.

Tallies two catches Thursday
Hyatt recorded two catches (on two targets) for eight yards against the Cowboys in Thursday's Week 13 loss.
Analysis: Hyatt, Darius Slayton and Wan'Dale Robinson each finished with two catches for New York, and none of them had more than eight receiving yards. Only Malik Nabers, who posted eight catches (on 13 targets) for 69 yards, was able to put up substantial numbers among the team's wideout corps. Hyatt's paltry reception and yardage totals were his second-highest of the season, which highlights how unproductive he's been this year.

Has best game of season in Week 10
Hyatt totaled four catches (on four targets) for 39 yards in Sunday's overtime loss to Carolina in Germany.
Analysis: Coming into Sunday, Hyatt had managed just one catch (on eight targets) for six yards on the campaign. The second-year wideout finally put together some meaningful production against the Panthers, ranking third on the Giants in receiving yards while tying for third in receptions. Nearly half of Hyatt's yardage came on a 19-yard deep catch down the middle in the second quarter, though he also drew a pass-interference penalty in the first quarter that netted New York 43 yards. It's also worth…read more

Could replace Slayton in Germany
Hyatt is expected to serve as the Giants' No. 3 receiver in Sunday's game against the Panthers in Munich after head coach Brian Daboll said that Darius Slayton (concussion) is unlikely to make the trip to Germany, Dan Salomone of the team's official site reports.
Analysis: After sustaining a concussion in last weekend's loss to the Commanders, Slayton didn't practice in any fashion Wednesday or Thursday. The Giants' traveling party will leave for Germany later Thursday, so assuming Slayton stays behind, Hyatt would be the next man up to join Malik Nabers and Wan'Dale Robinson in three-receiver sets. The speedy Hyatt will provide the Giants with a downfield threat, but he could struggle to see enough targets to make for an appealing fantasy option in Week 10, even…read more

Shut out in passing game again
Hyatt did not receive a target in Sunday's Week 9 loss to the Commanders.
Analysis: Hyatt functioned as New York's No. 4 wideout in the contest, but that resulted in just four offensive snaps -- well behind Malik Nabers (62 offensive snaps), Darius Slayton (60) and Wan'Dale Robinson (47). In fact, three Giants tight ends logged more snaps on offense than Hyatt (Theo Johnson with 55, Chris Manhertz with 16 and Daniel Bellinger with 14). Hyatt has just one catch on the campaign and has drawn one or zero targets in seven of the eight games in which he has played. However, he…read more

Gathers first catch of campaign
Hyatt caught one of four targets for six yards in Sunday's Week 6 loss to Cincinnati.
Analysis: For the second straight week, Hyatt logged a healthy offensive snap count (81 percent Sunday after 68 percent Week 5) with Malik Nabers (concussion) unable to suit up. The increased opportunities haven't amounted to much production, however. After failing to get even a target last week, Hyatt got only four against the Bengals and made just one catch for a small gain. It's clear at this point that the second-year wideout isn't in sync with QB Daniel Jones or New York's offensive game plan as a…read more

Logs 48 snaps without target
Hyatt did not receive a target or carry in Sunday's 29-20 Week 5 win over Seattle.
Analysis: With Malik Nabers (concussion) unable to suit up for the contest, it was expected that Hyatt would get more of an opportunity to produce after topping out at just 15 offensive snaps over his first four games. That opportunity did come to pass -- Hyatt was on the field for 48 of New York's 72 offensive snaps -- but production did not follow, as he wasn't targeted for the second time this season. Hyatt was selected in the third round of the 2023 Draft to help boost what was then an unexciting…read more

One target in Week 4
Hyatt failed to catch his only target in Thursday's 20-15 loss to the Cowboys.
Analysis: Hyatt remained a non-factor for the Giants in Week 4, playing just 13 of the team's 69 offensive snaps. The wide receiver's lack of production against Dallas is rather disheartening knowing that Daniel Jones attempted 40 passes in the contest. Hyatt appears to be an afterthought in New York's offense early in 2024, buried beneath Malik Nabers (concussion), Wan'Dale Robinson and Darius Slayton at wide receiver.

Shut out in Week 3 win
Hyatt got just one target, which he didn't catch, in a 21-15 victory against the Browns on Sunday.
Analysis: After Friday's practice, Hyatt refuted a recent report that he requested a trade late this summer, per Tom Canavan of the Associated Press. It's unclear if the rumblings had any impact on his playing time Sunday. Though he logged a season-low 10 offensive snaps, that number wasn't much different than the 15 and 11 he played in Weeks 1 and 2, respectively. Hyatt has drawn just two targets so far this season, neither of which has resulted in a catch. For the time being, he seems to be buried on…read more

Requested trade during summer
Hyatt requested a trade from the Giants during the summer, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: As Raanan tells it, Hyatt was unhappy with his standing on the depth chart and said during a practice late in the summer that if the team wasn't going to use him, they should trade him. Through two games, Hyatt has ran just 14 pass routes -- seventh-most on the team -- and appears buried just one year after the team used the 73rd overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft on the wideout. Coach Brian Daboll has stressed to Hyatt that his time is coming, but he's running as the distant fourth receiver…read more

Serving as No. 4 receiver
Hyatt failed to draw a target while playing 12 of the Giants' 56 snaps on offense in Sunday's 21-18 loss to the Commanders.
Analysis: With Malik Nabers, Wan'Dale Robinson and Darius Slayton solidified as the Giants' starting wideout trio, Hyatt has been unable to make much of an impression in the box score through the first two weeks of the season. After failing to secure his lone target in the Giants' Week 1 loss to the Vikings, Hyatt didn't draw any looks from quarterback Daniel Jones in Week 2. Hyatt will likely need one of the aforementioned receivers to miss time before he handles a more meaningful snap count.

Rarely involved Week 1
Hyatt didn't catch his only target in a Week 1 loss to Minnesota on Sunday.
Analysis: Hyatt logged only 16 offensive snaps in the defeat, which was well behind fellow wideouts Malik Nabers (71), Darius Slayton (51) and Wan'Dale Robinson (48). That provides pretty clear evidence of where Hyatt is on the depth chart right now, though he could see significantly more opportunity Week 2 versus Washington on Sunday if Slayton is unable to clear the NFL's concussion protocol in time for the contest.

Minimal action in preseason opener
Hyatt caught his only target for no gain in Thursday's 14-3 preseason win over the Lions.
Analysis: Hyatt's lone target came from Drew Lock (hip) on the opening drive. Rookie sixth overall pick Malik Nabers wasn't targeted at all on his 12 snaps in the game, so neither of the young speedsters made much of an impact Thursday. Hyatt's coming off a 373-yard rookie season, and the 2023 third-round draft pick is trying to carve out a larger role in 2024. The Giants' second preseason game will be next Saturday in Houston.

Getting regular first-team work
Hyatt has been getting more first-team reps than Darius Slayton (undisclosed) during training camp, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: This seems to at least partially be a product of Slayton managing a minor injury, but it's nonetheless a nice opportunity for Hyatt on the heels of a disappointing rookie season. The 2023 third-round pick caught 23 of 40 targets for 373 yards in 17 regular-season games last year, averaging 16.2 yards per catch while drawing a target on just 10.6 percent of routes. He'll need to draw targets at a much higher rate to achieve mainstream fantasy relevance, which could be a challenge if fellow WRs…read more

Bumps down depth chart
Hyatt is expected to be the Giants' top backup wide receiver in 2024 following the team's selection of Malik Nabers with the No. 6 overall pick in last week's draft, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Hyatt injured his hamstring in the season finale against the Eagles, but he's presumably made a full recovery by now. He's coming off a rookie season in which he secured 23 of 40 targets for 373 scoreless yards over 17 games. He averaged a strong 16.2 yards per catch, but the number of catchable passes thrown his way were few and far between as a downfield threat. Darius Slayton is expected to open the season as a starter opposite Nabers, with Wan'Dale Robinson in the slot. The Giants would…read more

Tallies 25 receiving yards Week 17
Hyatt caught three of four targets for 25 yards in Sunday's loss to the Rams.
Analysis: After being shut out each of the past two weeks, Hyatt bounced back to some extent with his highest receiving yardage total since he exploded for 109 yards against New England in Week 12. It was still a modest performance for the rookie wideout, as he tied for fifth on the team in catches and ranked fifth in receiving yards. Hyatt will have a chance to put a positive final spin on his first NFL campaign next week in a home matchup against the Eagles.

Shut out in Week 16 loss
Hyatt was not targeted in the passing game in the Giants' loss to Philadelphia on Monday.
Analysis: Hyatt logged 35 offensive snaps -- 56 percent of the team's total -- Monday, third-highest among Giants receivers. However, he didn't see the ball come his way a single time, marking the fourth time this season that he's failed to draw any targets. It was also the second straight week without a catch for the rookie, and he's accumulated just two catches for 13 yards over his past three games after flashing his potential with a five-catch, 109-yard effort against the Patriots in Week 12.

First 100-yard game of NFL career
Hyatt caught five of six targets for 109 yards in Sunday's 10-7 win over the Patriots.
Analysis: Hyatt got free downfield for catches of 29 and 41 yards en route to a career high in receiving yards. Fellow deep threat Darius Slayton (neck) was active after being doubtful heading into Sunday's game but was limited to 16 yards on three targets while Hyatt capitalized on his increased role with the best game of his rookie season.

Good to go vs. Commanders
Hyatt has cleared the NFL's five-step concussion protocol and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against Washington, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.
Analysis: Hyatt was placed in the concussion protocol after this past Sunday's 49-17 loss to the Cowboys, but he has recovered in time to face the Commanders in Week 11. The rookie wide receiver has a pair of catches over 40 yards among his 11 receptions this season, but Hyatt will be catching passes from third-string quarterback Tommy DeVito on Sunday.

Progressing through concussion protocol
Hyatt (concussion) practiced in a limited fashion Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Analysis: Hyatt suffered a concussion this past Sunday at Dallas, and after kicking off Week 11 prep with no on-field work Wednesday, he made noticeable progress one day later by putting in some work. Still, he likely has multiple steps to take in his quest through the protocol for head injuries, the last of which will be gaining clearance from an independent neurologist. Hyatt will need to do so by Saturday in order to be available Sunday in Washington.

Posts another quiet effort
Hyatt finished Sunday's Week 9 loss to the Raiders with two catches on five targets for 19 yards.
Analysis: Hyatt's five targets tied for second on the team, but those opportunities yielded limited production. The rookie speedster did at least manage to turn things around a bit after he failed to garner a target at all last week against the Jets, but Hyatt's role and performance continue to be volatile. He has failed to register a catch in four contests this season, but Hyatt also posted an 89-yard effort in Week 2 against Arizona and a 75-yard performance in Week 7 against Washington.

Big-play threat in Sunday's win
Hyatt caught two of five targets for 75 yards in Sunday's 14-7 win over the Commanders.
Analysis: The rookie caught passes of 33 and 42 yards while flashing the speed that caused the Giants to trade up in this year's draft to select him in the third round. Hyatt doesn't offer much more than the ability to stretch the field at this stage of his career, but four of his first nine NFL receptions have gone for 30 yards or more. Regardless of whether Daniel Jones (neck) or Tyrod Taylor is under center in Week 8, Hyatt could have a hard time making an impact against a stingy Jets secondary.

Analysis: Hyatt played on 73 percent of New York's offensive snaps, the highest mark of his career thus far. His three catches also were a campaign high, though he was able to turn the receptions into only 21 yards. The rookie looked like he could emerge as the Giants' much-needed deep threat when he caught two passes for 89 yards Week 2 against Arizona, but his other five receptions this season have gone for just 31 combined yards.

Hyatt caught both of his targets for 10 yards Monday in a Week 4 loss to the Seahawks.
Analysis: Hyatt was again mostly a nonfactor in the passing game, as his only two catches went for three and seven yards, respectively. If there's a positive takeaway for fantasy managers who roster the rookie wideout, it's that he tallied a season-high 27 offensive snaps, per Connor Hughes of SNY.tv, and was on the field more than fellow wideout Isaiah Hodgins for the first time this season.

Gets no targets in Thursday's loss
Hyatt didn't receive any targets against the 49ers in a Week 3 loss Thursday.
Analysis: Hyatt provided a boost to the Giants' passing game with two catches for 89 yards against Arizona in Week 2, but he didn't see a single ball thrown his way against San Francisco. This was the second time the rookie speedster has been shut out in receptions through three games this season, and he's yet to be on the field for more than 22 offensive snaps in any contest. With that context in mind, Hyatt isn't a reliable option in fantasy at this point in the campaign.

Hyatt failed to catch his only target in his NFL debut last week, and while he may not see big volume as part of a crowded wideout depth chart, his ability to get deep figures to be a key element of the New York passing game this season.

Hyatt was on the field for just 25 of New York's 70 offensive snaps, fourth-most among wideouts on the team behind Darius Slayton (47 snaps), Parris Campbell (47) and Isaiah Hodgins (42).

Quiet in preseason finale
Hyatt failed to catch his lone target in Saturday's preseason loss to the Jets on Saturday.
Analysis: Hyatt put together a strong showing against the Panthers last week (4-35-1), but he failed to get involved in the Giants' final tune-up game. The rookie wideout brings tremendous speed as a slot receiver, but he may find it hard to earn snaps ahead of veteran starters Isaiah Hodgins and Darius Slayton out of the gate. Assuming he makes the final roster, Hyatt should provide depth for the Giants ahead of a Week 1 matchup against the Cowboys on Sept. 10.

Fine after overheating Wednesday
Hyatt is returning to practice Thursday after exiting early Wednesday due to heat exhaustion, John Fennelly of Giants Wire reports.
Analysis: He's far from the first rookie to struggle with heat and resulting fatigue during his first NFL training camp. The third-round pick still has a wide range of playing-time outcomes for his debut campaign, as the Giants' WR room offers quantity more so than quality, with up to seven or eight players potentially in the mix for top-three roles. Hyatt will probably come off the bench Week 1 but still has plenty of time to make an impression before then.

Analysis: The Giants have yet to shed light on the nature or severity of Hyatt's injury. The rookie third-round pick is staring down the opportunity to compete for a significant role on offense alongside Darius Slayton or Isaiah Hodgins, but he'll first need to impress over the course of training camp and the preseason.

Healthy for spring practices
Hyatt (hamstring) did some drills at rookie minicamp but didn't participate in 7-on-7s, Paul Schwartz of the NY Post reports.
Analysis: Hyatt hurt his hamstring at the NFL Combine, but only after running a 4.40 40 time and posting a 133-inch broad jump and 40-inch vertical. The rookie third-round pick reportedly is working on gaining weight after checking in at only 176 pounds at the combine, recently noting that he's up to 180 and wants to play at about 190. Hyatt should be cleared for training camp, if not spring practices, and he could challenge Darius Slayton or Isaiah Hodgins for perimeter snaps early on.
