ISAIAH HODGINS NEWS

Records one catch in Week 13 loss Hodgins brought in his only target for four yards Monday in a loss to New England.

Impact New York QB Jaxson Dart threw for only 139 yards in a game the Giants trailed by 23 points at the half, and no pass catcher on the team registered more than 41 receiving yards. Still, this was a very quiet game for Hodgins after he posted a 7-99-1 line across his first two contests since re-joining New York off Pittsburgh's practice squad in mid-November. Hodgins still worked as the Giants' No. 3 wideout -- only two other WRs on the team (Darius Slayton and Wan'Dale Robinson) drew a target Monday -- and he figures to continue in that role following the club's Week 14 bye.

Secures TD in loss to Detroit Hodgins caught two of six targets for 42 yards and one touchdown in the Giants' 34-27 overtime loss to the Lions on Sunday.

Impact Hodgins' six targets were a distant second on the team behind Wan'Dale Robinson's 14 looks from Jameis Winston. Hodgins, however, did find the end zone from 12 yards out in the second quarter to give the Giants a 17-7 lead. Hodgins has drawn six targets in back-to-back games since signing with the team off the Steelers' practice squad. He appears to be locked into three-wide sets alongside Robinson and Darius Slayton, as the Giants seem to again be moving away from Jalin Hyatt.

Paces Giants in receiving yards Hodgins hauled in five of six targets for 57 yards during Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Packers.

Impact Hodgins made his season debut in familiar territory after spending most of the season on the Steelers' practice squad, from which the Giants signed him off of Thursday. He thus had little time to get up to speed with fill-in QB Jameis Winston, but Hodgins still paced the team in catches and receiving yards while ranking behind only WR Wan'Dale Robinson's (4-36-0 line) nine targets. Hodgins' previous experience with interim head coach Mike Kafka in New York from 2022 through 2024 clearly aided his cause as he helped cover for the absent Darius Slayton (hamstring). Slayton didn't practice during Week 11 prep, so Hodgins may have some viability in the short term if the former remains sidelined next Sunday at Detroit.

May have role in return to Giants Hodgins may play a large role in the Giants' passing game Sunday against the Packers with Darius Slayton (hamstring) ruled out for the contest, Dan Duggan of The Athletic reports.

Impact Hodgins hasn't been active once this season while mostly residing on the Steelers' practice squad, but the Giants signed him to their active roster Thursday in the wake of significant injuries in their receiving corps. Hodgins has plenty of experience working with interim head coach Mike Kafka, as he was the offensive coordinator calling the plays since the wideout joined the team at the midpoint of the 2022 campaign. In 28 games with New York over the previous three seasons, Hodgins hauled in 56 of 77 passes for 593 yards and seven touchdowns. He also plays primarily out wide, making him a decent plug and play for Slayton in addition to his previous experience with Kafka.

Poached by Giants New York signed Hodgins to the 53-man roster from the Steelers' practice squad Thursday, Dan Salomone of the Giants' official site reports.

Impact Hodgins will provide depth for New York at wide receiver, in the wake of the team having had Lil'Jordan Humphrey be poached from their practice squad by Denver. Hodgins spent time with the 49ers in training camp and has resided on Pittsburgh's practice squad for most of the regular season, but his last game action came across three appearances with the Giants in 2024.

Catches on with Giants The Giants signed Hodgins to the practice squad Tuesday, Gerry Dulac of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports.

Impact Hodgins failed to make the 49ers' 53-man roster at the end of training camp, but he'll get a new opportunity with the Giants, who he played with from 2022 to 2024. He would be a top candidate to be elevated from the practice squad to the active roster if any member of the Giants' wide receiver corps were to miss time due to injury, illness or suspension.

Joins SF on reserve/future deal San Francisco signed Hodgins to a reserve/future contract Tuesday.

Impact Hodgins was a sixth-round draft selection by the Bills in 2020. He had a mild breakthrough after joining the Giants midway through the 2022 campaign, recording 33 catches for 351 yards and four touchdowns over eight games. However, Hodgins had since fallen out of favor in New York and spent much of 2024 on the team's practice squad. The 49ers have signed two other veteran wideouts -- Trent Taylor and Russell Gage -- to reserve/future deals following the conclusion of the regular season, and the trio will be given the opportunity to compete for roster spots during training camp next summer.
