Hyatt was injured when the Giants were still in West Virginia and missed the rest of training camp and the entire preseason. He had been making some plays in practice, and the Giants were giving him an opportunity as a punt gunner.

Injured WR on practice squad; missed camp/preseason but retains draft investment.

WR assigned to practice squad after being injured during training camp in West Virginia, missing the rest of camp and entire preseason. Had been making plays in practice and was being given an opportunity as a punt gunner before the injury. The source suggests the Giants may feel the injury prevented the current coaching staff from getting a full evaluation, and that they may have viewed Hyatt as a speedy WR option for the practice squad worth keeping despite the setback. Hyatt remains a draft pick the front office is invested in, and speed typically earns players extra chances, though practice squad players have no guarantees of remaining on the roster.
