Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed looks to build off of his exciting and productive rookie campaign as the Packers travel south to Brazil to face the Philadelphia Eagles on Friday. Reed comes off of a stellar rookie season where he up 10 total touchdowns, 90 targets, and 64 receptions for 793 receiving yards and should improve upon those numbers in his second year with the green and gold. As the primary slot man seeing almost 76% of snaps there last season, Reed may come off the field a little more than we'd like when the formation condenses, but his efficiency was excellent last season with a 2.05 yards per route run. Against the Eagles in Week 1, Reed should have a tougher time than last year's slot receivers did, as the Eagles reinforced their nickel back situation with rookies Quinyon Mitchell and Cooper DeJean. Still, Reed is a low-end WR3 in your fantasy lineups and has all the upside in the world for the Packers in this week's matchup.
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (calf) has returned to the practice field at training camp on Thursday after he was held out of practice on Wednesday with a minor calf injury. Reed also missed the early part of camp due to an injury, but he's fine now and should be 100 percent for the start of the 2024 regular season, barring any other injury setbacks in camp or the preseason. The 24-year-old is the team's starting slot receiver but could have a tough time replicating his impressive rookie season in which he scored 10 total touchdowns (eight receiving, two rushing) in 16 games. Reed's production was helped by the fact that Christian Watson missed time due to injury. He's a big part of Green Bay's offense moving forward, but as long as Watson and Romeo Doubs are healthy, fantasy managers should be concerned about target volume for Reed.
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (calf) was held out of training camp practice on Wednesday due to a calf injury. The Packers haven't given any indication that Reed's calf injury is a long-term ailment, but it's worth noting after he also missed the start of training camp due to a toe injury. Even if his calf injury isn't serious, there's a good chance he'll be held out of this weekend's preseason opener as a precaution. The 24-year-old second-year pass-catcher turned heads with eight touchdowns on 64 receptions and 793 yards in 16 games (13 starts) in his rookie season last year. Reed showed he has a nose for the end zone and plenty of big-play ability through the air and on the ground, but volume could be a question as long as both Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs stay healthy. Heading into Year 2 in 2024, fantasy managers should consider Reed more of a touchdown-dependent WR3/flex.
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (toe) is taking his first team repetitions of training camp on Saturday, and it coincides with quarterback Jordan Love returning to practice for the first time this summer after signing a record contract extension on Friday. It didn't take long for the two to hook up in practice, with Love throwing an out-route to Reed out of the slot toward the right sideline. Reed started camp on the Non-Football Injury list but was activated earlier this week after suffering a minor toe injury earlier this summer. The 24-year-old former second-rounder last year proved his explosiveness right away in his first NFL season, scoring 10 total touchdowns while catching 64 passes for 793 yards in 16 regular-season games (13 starts). Reed is a special talent, but fantasy managers shouldn't reach for his TD production. With Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks all in the picture, Reed could be a TD-or-bust WR3/4 in fantasy.
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (toe) came off the non-football injury list on Wednesday. After dealing with a minor toe injury, Reed was back at training camp for Wednesday's practice. The Packers sport a packed receiving corps for star quarterback Jordan Love in 2024, but it's Reed who's projecting as the signal-caller's favorite target while holding an ADP of 56 in fantasy drafts this summer, per RotoBaller. The 24-year-old former second-round pick was a standout in Green Bay's offense during his rookie campaign, ranking in the top 10 at his position in both PPR fantasy points per route run (0.56) and fantasy points per target (2.31) while totaling 10 touchdowns in 16 games (94 targets). Reed is an exciting WR2 bet in this upstart offense.
