Impending free agent wide receiver Tyler Boyd will draw plenty of interest from several teams throughout the offseason. Although there's a chance the wideout will return to Cincinnati, he didn't rule out one day suiting up for his hometown Steelers. Boyd also conveyed his fondness for head coach Mike Tomlin, with the wideout describing him as "one of the realest dudes in the sport's business." But with just a few weeks removed from the end of the 2023-24 campaign, it's far too early to speculate how this scenario will play out. However, a change of scenery could help Boyd get back to the 1,000-yard receiving conversation. At any rate, the 29-year-old, who also played college ball at Pitt, would make a welcome addition to any team, especially after a relatively successful tenure with the Bengals.
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd wrapped up a very mediocre 2023 campaign in the Week 18 regular season finale with a one-catch, four-yard performance in the 31-14 blowout win over a Cleveland Browns team that was resting most of their starters on both sides of the ball. Boyd will head into free agency in March after posting 67 receptions for 667 yards and only two touchdowns on 98 targets over 17 games in 2023. Fantasy managers weren't really expecting Boyd to be all that productive with Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins in front of him on the depth chart. However, Higgins ended up missing five games with various injuries, and Boyd didn't exactly take advantage of more opportunities. It also didn't help that Joe Burrow (wrist) played in just 10 games. The 29-year-old Boyd will have an opportunity to test the open market in March, and he could rebound with a change of scenery after spending his first eight years in Cincinnati.
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd may play in his final game with the organization on Sunday versus the Browns. The 2016 second-round pick has had a potent career in Cincinnati, including 1,000-yard seasons in 2018 and 2019. Unfortunately, he's had one of the worst campaigns of his career in 2023-24, catching 66 passes for 663 yards and two touchdowns. While there's a chance he re-signs with the Bengals in the offseason, he has at least one more opportunity for a productive outing on Sunday. That said, fantasy managers should at least consider him for their starting lineups, especially if Tee Higgins (hamstring) doesn't suit up. At the same time, Boyd warrants DFS consideration.
Cincinnati Bengals wide receiver Tyler Boyd had just two catches for 29 yards in Sunday's loss to the Chiefs. The veteran wideout had another hideous fantasy showing in Week 17. However, the rest of the Bengals offense had issues getting anything going, so Boyd can be forgiven. At any rate, with Cincinnati out of playoff contention, Boyd may not play in Week 18 versus the Browns. There's also a chance his days as a Bengal are over. But the 29-year-old had some quality seasons over the years, and depending on where he ends up moving ahead, he could reestablish himself as a viable fantasy asset.
