Giants WR Jalin Hyatt Gains 25 Pounds, Eyes Key Role Summer

Jalin Hyatt, the New York Giants wide receiver drafted in 2023, has struggled in his first two NFL seasons, underperforming and failing to gain the confidence of his coaches and quarterbacks. However, after adding nearly 25 pounds during the offseason to bulk up to around 190-195 pounds, Hyatt is optimistic about his improved strength and readiness to contribute more effectively, especially with a new quarterback room led by Russell Wilson who has helped boost Hyatt's confidence. Hyatt has committed to a rigorous offseason training regimen, focusing on consistent weight training and nutrition without breaks, aiming to overcome the adversity he has faced since entering the league. His new attitude and physical development have raised expectations that 2025 could be a breakout year for him as he takes reps in the slot and embraces the physical demands of the NFL wide receiver role. Despite past setbacks and a disappointing sophomore season, Hyatt is determined to show his growth and impact on the field this season. Giants fans and the team alike are hopeful this version of Hyatt will finally fulfill the promise he showed as a college standout and high draft pick.
