Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds caught just one of his four targets for 25 yards in Sunday's loss to the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship Game. The 28-year-old had a crucial drop of fourth down after quarterback Jared Goff evaded the rush of Nick Bosa, and he failed to secure a third-down reception later in the game. Ultimately, it was an unfortunate time for Reynolds to struggle, as converting either of those opportunities into first downs could've meant the difference between winning and losing. Reynolds' 2024 fantasy football outlook is dependent on what Detroit does at the wide receiver spot this offseason.
Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence is eligible for a contract extension this offseason after playing out the first three years of his deal, and general manager Trent Baalke said there's "no doubt" about the former first overall pick's long-term relationship with the organization. Lawrence is coming off an up-and-down season in 2023 that was marred by several injuries. He's eligible to have his fifth-year option picked up, which would be worth a projected $21.978 million. The Jaguars may not necessarily give Lawrence a long-term contract extension this offseason, but it's likely coming and will almost certainly be record-breaking. In 2023, Lawrence completed 65.6% of his passes for 4,016 yards, 21 touchdowns and 14 interceptions while losing seven fumbles. He was also sacked 35 times, 12th-most in the league. With better health in 2024, Lawrence could be primed for a bounce-back campaign.
Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds (ribs) was removed from the injury report on Friday, meaning he's good to go for the NFC Championship Game against the San Francisco 49ers. Reynolds was a limited participant during Wednesday and Thursday's practice with a rib injury, but it turned out to be minor. The 28-year-old has been a key contributor so far in the postseason, catching seven of his 10 targets for 107 yards and a touchdown. Kalif Raymond (knee) will not play on Sunday, so Reynolds should continue to be heavily involved in the matchup with the 49ers, who have been a neutral defense against fantasy wide receivers to this point.
Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds (ribs) was a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report, and he remained limited during the team's Thursday practice. The 28-year-old was not knocked out of last week's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, so he's likely dealing with soreness or a minor ding-up. Reynolds has saved his best performances for the postseason, snagging seven passes for 107 yards and a touchdown in the team's Wild Card and Divisional Round wins. Kalif Raymond (knee) remains out of practice, so Reynolds should remain the clear No. 2 wide receiver behind Amon-Ra St. Brown for Sunday's NFC Championship Game.
Jacksonville Jaguars general manager Trent Baalke said the team will have a "heart to heart" discussion with quarterback Trevor Lawrence this offseason about whether a long-term contract extension happens now or in 2025. The Jaguars will almost certainly pick up Lawrence's fifth-year option at some point this offseason. The former first overall pick out of Clemson led the Jags to a playoff appearance in just his second season and the team was off to a fast start in 2023 before crumbling down the stretch. The 24-year-old dealt with several injuries that most likely hurt his production, but he's now thrown for 11,770 yards, 58 touchdowns and 39 interceptions in his first three seasons. Lawrence will be a midrange QB1 for fantasy managers heading into the 2024 season, and an extension is likely a matter of when, not if, for Lawrence and the Jaguars.
