Jayden Reed's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed will go on the road to take on the San Francisco 49ers in the Divisional Round of the NFL playoffs on Saturday. The rookie led the Packers in receiving yards this season and was a late-season fantasy breakout, but failed to catch any of his three targets last week and played only 26 of the 56 offensive snaps. This was likely due to recovering from the chest injury that had given him problems toward the end of the regular season. All of the Packers receivers are healthy heading into the weekend, meaning the target share is going to be spread around even more by quarterback Jordan Love. With that said Reed has been a massive part of the Packers' success over the back half of the season and remains a flex option in DFS formats this weekend.

Green Bay Packers wide receivers Christian Watson (hamstring) and Jayden Reed (chest) were both listed as limited in practice for the second straight day this week on Wednesday. Watson missed the final games of the regular season but returned for the wild-card win over the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday and played just 41 percent of the offensive snaps while catching one pass for a nine-yard gain. The 24-year-old should see the field more on Saturday against the San Francisco 49ers, but it's a bad matchup and Green Bay's impressive receiver depth is going to make it difficult for Watson to make a difference for fantasy managers. Reed, meanwhile, played just 26 of 56 snaps against Dallas and didn't catch any of his three targets. The 23-year-old rookie did have 10 total touchdowns in 2023, but he'll be a touchdown-dependent DFS play against San Fran.

Green Bay Packers wide receivers Christian Watson (hamstring) and Jayden Reed (chest) were both listed as limited on the team's estimated practice report on Tuesday. Watson made his return in Sunday's wild-card victory over the Dallas Cowboys after missing the final five games of the regular season. It was an unceremonious return, as he caught just one pass for nine yards. It was better than what Reed did, though, as the impressive rookie failed to catch a pass on three targets. Both wideouts will be looking to bounce back in the Divisional Round, but it won't be easy against a stout San Francisco 49ers defense and with quarterback Jordan Love spreading the ball around to receivers Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks and tight ends Luke Musgrave and Tucker Kraft as well. Watson is still getting his legs back under him and could be limited again, making him extremely risky in DFS.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed failed to catch any of his three targets during the team's 48-32 win over the Dallas Cowboys. The rookie led the Packers in receiving yards during the regular season and was red-hot over the final half of it, but he was not a focal point of the offense on Sunday. Romeo Doubs caught all six of his targets for 151 yards and a score, absorbing most of the yards gained by the wide receiver corps. Quarterback Jordan Love only had to throw 21 passes in this game, and with the Packers' receiver corps finally back to full strength, there were not enough targets to spread around. Reed remains a flex option next week when the Packers go on the road to take on the San Francisco 49ers.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed will go on the road to take on the Dallas Cowboys in the first round of the NFL playoffs. Reed has dealt with a chest injury but was a full participant all week in practice and was left off of the final injury report. The rookie recorded his first 100-yard receiving game of his career last weekend on just four receptions and enters the weekend as the potential top target for quarterback Jordan Love. Christian Watson (hamstring) is once again listed as questionable, while the rest of the Packers' receiving corps was left off of the final injury report. Reed is set to have the most competition for targets since the early portion of the season, but due to his success down the stretch, he should command a solid target share and could even handle a few carries for good measure. Reed is the top target in DFS when looking at the Packers' depth chart, but he also carries the heftiest price tag.
