A year ago, optimists held out hope Hyatt would still develop.
He is now an afterthought, even though he has made a few plays this offseason. If the Giants felt good about Hyatt, they wouldn’t have added so many veteran wide receivers this offseason. The Giants hung onto Hyatt as a healthy scratch for much of last season to avoid cutting a third-round pick. They can’t be worried about those optics anymore, and Hyatt should be craving a fresh start at this point.

With the Giants expected to lean heavily on two-tight end packages, Fields has made an early claim for the No. 2 receiver spot opposite Nabers.
