The New York Giants are contemplating trading wide receiver Jalin Hyatt this preseason due to their crowded roster. With several new additions to the receiving corps, Hyatt's prospects for making the 53-player roster appear slim. Despite displaying promise as a rookie with 23 catches for 373 yards, his production has declined, and he remains without a touchdown in three seasons. The Giants may explore trade options before the roster cut deadline, but any potential return is likely minimal, with a seventh-round pick viewed as an optimistic possibility at this point.
- •Hyatt has not scored a touchdown in three NFL seasons.
- •Giants added several receivers, creating a surplus.
- •Hyatt showed early promise with 23 catches and 373 yards as a rookie.
- •His current role includes working as a punt gunner in practice.
- •Trade interest may arise, but realistic offers are limited.
