Overview
- ESPN's Jordan Raanan reported that New York has spoken with teams in recent weeks about making offensive lineman Evan Neal and wide receiver Jalin Hyatt available.
- NFL insider Josina Anderson said the Raiders held exploratory discussions on Neal roughly 1.5 to 2 weeks ago, with no subsequent action reported.
- New York Post reporter Ryan Dunleavy relayed local buzz that the 49ers could be a change-of-scenery option for Hyatt, though no offer has surfaced.
- Usage on Sunday underscored both players' tenuous roles, with Neal active for the first time this season but logging no snaps and Hyatt taking his first NFL kickoff returns, averaging 27.8 yards on four while not playing on offense.
- With the 2-7 Giants approaching Tuesday’s 4 p.m. ET deadline, multiple outlets characterize any potential return as minimal, and Hyatt told Newsday he wants to stay even as he acknowledges the business side.
