Jalin Hyatt: Reverts to practice squad
Hyatt reverted to the Giants' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's transaction log.
Hyatt's first elevation of the 2026 season resulted in three offensive snaps and six special-teams snaps in the Giants' overtime win against the Texans on Sunday. The wide receiver has two 53-man roster elevations remaining.

Giants' Jalin Hyatt: Promoted from practice squad
The Giants elevated Hyatt from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
It's the first elevation of the season for Hyatt, who signed with the Giants' practice squad after failing to make the team's 53-man roster at the end of training camp. The 2023 third-rounder appeared in only eight regular-season games last year, finishing with five catches (on 14 targets) for 35 yards and returned four kickoffs for 111 yards.

Jalin Hyatt: Back with G-Men
The Giants signed Hyatt to the practice squad Monday.
Hyatt was part of the Giants' 53-man roster cuts over the weekend but will stick around after passing through waivers unclaimed. A third-round pick in 2023, Hyatt has just 36 career regular-season catches for 470 yards and zero touchdowns across 41 appearances. Odell Beckham beat Hyatt out for a roster spot this summer.

Jalin Hyatt: Waived by New York
The Giants waived Hyatt on Sunday, Connor Hughes of SNY.tv reports.
Hyatt played in eight regular-season games for the Giants in 2025, logging five receptions for 35 yards. The wide receiver has fallen short of the 53-man roster, leaving No. 13 open for new addition Odell Beckham. Hyatt will now be subject to waivers and if he clears will become a free agent able to sign with any organization.

Giants' Jalin Hyatt: Not suiting up
Hyatt (ankle/leg) will not play in Saturday's preseason game against the Vikings, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Hyatt has been set to miss Saturday's game since Thursday. The wide receiver has been dealing with a leg issue, and the 24-year-old recently suffered an ankle injury as well. Hyatt currently has no return timeline, and if he continues to miss key preseason reps he may not make the 53-man roster.

Giants' Jalin Hyatt: Won't play Saturday
Hyatt (leg) will not play in Saturday's preseason opener against the Vikings, Ryan Dunleavy of the New York Post reports.
Hyatt was absent from Thursday's practice session, Jordan Raanan of ESPN.com reports. The wide receiver has not returned to the field since he injured his right ankle during Monday's session. It is unclear how much time the 24-year-old will miss with the issue. After being inactive for much of the 2025 season, Hyatt will likely be a victim of cutdown day if he cannot return to the field and prove his worth soon.

Giants' Jalin Hyatt: Potential ankle injury
Hyatt appeared to injure his right ankle at the end of Monday's practice, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
Hyatt had a strong minicamp with the Giants and is making a push to once again be a consistent piece of the team's wide receiving corps. The 24-year-old played snaps in just eight regular-season contests in 2025, and an ankle injury would not help his chances of returning to the Giants' 53-man roster.

Giants' Jalin Hyatt: Logs strong minicamp
Hyatt (lower body) took part in the Giants' recent mandatory minicamp and looked good at practice, Jordan Raanan of ESPN reports.
Hyatt was limited to the side field during spring practices, but the 2023 third-round pick now appears back to full health. The 24-year-old was regularly a healthy scratch in 2025 and suited up for only 10 regular-season games, totaling eight catches for 35 yards on 14 targets. He's competing with players like Braxton Berrios, JuJu Smith-Schuster, Odell Beckham, Isaiah Hodgins, Beaux Collins (concussion) and Ryan Miller for a roster spot.

Giants' Jalin Hyatt: Working on the side
Hyatt (lower body) was spotted riding the bike on the sidelines during Thursday's practice, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.
It's unclear exactly what Hyatt is dealing with, but Duggan believes he tweaked something while running routes early in practice. If the injury lingers through the offseason program, we should expect more clarity. Hyatt is fighting for a roster spot this offseason, as he was frequently a healthy scratch in 2025 and finished with just five catches for 35 yards over eight games.

Giants' Jalin Hyatt: Won't play Week 18
Hyatt (illness) is inactive for Sunday's clash versus the Cowboys, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.
Hyatt dealt with an illness this week and won't be able to suit up for New York's season finale. He'll end a thoroughly disappointing campaign with a paltry five catches on 14 targets for 35 yards with no touchdowns. Hyatt also collected 111 kick-return yards, though all of those came in one game (Week 9 against San Francisco). The Tennessee product is under contract with New York for one more year but may not be retained by the team next season given his poor performance over the past two campaigns.

Giants' Jalin Hyatt: Could play Sunday
Hyatt (illness) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cowboys.
Hyatt upgraded from DNPs on Wednesday and Thursday to a limited practice Friday, giving himself a chance to suit up for Sunday's season finale. The 2023 third-round pick from Tennessee has had a disappointing 2025 campaign, appearing in eight games and catching catching five of 14 targets for 35 yards. If active Sunday, Hyatt is expected to play a depth role in the Giants' receiving corps.
