Jalin Hyatt assures fans that there’s more to him and his game.

Much more.

“There’s a lot that I haven’t shown,” Hyatt told The Post after the Giants’ practice Thursday. “Very confident [of a breakout second season]. I was confident last year. Obviously some things didn’t go the way we wanted them to go, and that’s alright. New year, new goals, new me. Just ready to execute, ready to go out there and play.”

For this Giants offense to climb out of ineptitude, they’re banking on it.

They drafted the speedy receiver in the third round last year, and despite a strong training camp that drew excitement, Hyatt struggled through a quiet rookie season.

The 22-year-old recorded just 23 catches for 373 yards and, notably, no touchdowns.

And nearly all of that production came in three games — 89 yards Week 2 against the Cardinals, 75 yards Week 7 against the Commanders and 109 yards Week 12 against the Patriots.

Other than that, Hyatt didn’t surpass 25 yards.

“We had a lot of issues,” Hyatt said. “Really, the whole [offense] we had an issue with. Now coming back and getting back our confidence, seeing [Daniel Jones] back there and obviously a lot of new players. Just seeing everybody work together, it’s fun to see.

“I really feel like this year will be a better year for us, for sure.”

In a group of receivers that has largely been deemed the best unit Jones has had at his disposal in his career, Hyatt is likely the biggest X-factor.

Rookie Malik Nabers, whom the Giants drafted at No. 6, is expected, and needs, to be a star.

Darius Slayton, entering his sixth season with the Giants, is a well known commodity.

He has recorded 700-800 receiving yards four of his five seasons in the league.

Wan’Dale Robinson is still looking to take a big leap, but his ceiling is limited due to his size and role in the slot.

But Hyatt presents the biggest wild card. Having already flashed a skill set that can take over games, Hyatt’s ability to turn that into consistent output could play a major factor in just how far this offense goes.

“Experience helps,” Daboll said Thursday about Hyatt. “So, getting lined up, going to the right spot, playing fast. He’s made a good jump. Now we’ll take that into the season.”

Hyatt’s speed makes him a dangerous downfield threat, an area the Giants were woeful last year and where they thought Hyatt would help the most.

Giants quarterbacks averaged 9.9 yards per completion last year, the fifth-lowest in the NFL.

But despite his limited sample size, Hyatt proved he can be an answer to that problem.

He averaged 16.2 yards per catch last year, the highest on the team.

And Hyatt’s struggles last year certainly weren’t all on him. Three different quarterbacks played for the Giants last year, none with any great success.

A horrid offensive line in front of the quarterbacks hardly ever gave receivers enough time for long routes to develop — the type that Hyatt was mostly running.

Perhaps with Jones healthy and with stable offensive line play, Hyatt will get more chances to impact the game and hurt opposing defenses down the field.

“Any time you can hit a big one, usually you’re going to have an opportunity to get some points on the board,” Daboll said. “And we’ve actively been doing that throughout OTAs and camp — pushing the ball down the field. … You have to do a good job of threatening the vertical part of the field, no question about it.”

Hyatt claimed that his understanding of the playbook and his responsibilities “definitely clicked” around the middle of last season, though the results didn’t change much.

Now that he understands, and has felt, how long an NFL season is compared to college, Hyatt believes he’s taking care of his body better than last year.

He dubbed it the “biggest difference” for him this year and what he most learned as a rookie. Additionally, playing more physically and eliminating mental errors have been points of emphasis for him.

And he can’t wait to show everyone.

“Very excited,” Hyatt said. “Coming off a year that we obviously didn’t want to have, we’re gonna learn from our mistakes and try to get better from that. Just trying to keep building, keep getting better, getting more comfortable with the playbook, going out there and executing. That’s my job, and I gotta do that.”
