Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (calf, quadriceps) was listed as a limited practice participant on Wednesday with calf and quadriceps injuries. Reed has been playing through a calf injury since Week 2, but the quad injury is new this week. Unless Reed suffers a setback later this week with one of his two injuries, he should be able to suit up and play this Sunday in a big divisional matchup against the Minnesota Vikings at Lambeau Field. None of Green Bay's pass-catchers have been all that attractive in starting fantasy lineups the last two games with quarterback Jordan Love (knee) sidelined and backup Malik Willis running the offense. In two games with Willis at QB, Reed has six receptions for 59 yards and four carries for 56 yards. In the season opener with Love active, Reed scored both on the ground and through the air.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed was a solid contributor in the Packers' 30-14 win over the Tennessee Titans in Week 3. Reed led the Packers in targets (6) and receptions (4) for 50 receiving yards as Reed was the most consistent receiving option for starting quarterback Malik Willis on the afternoon. Not only was Reed a factor in the receiving game, but he also added 19 yards rushing on two carries. With Reed contributing in multiple ways across the Packers' offense, Reed as become the most consistent fantasy option. Reed's fantasy value in Week 4 against the Minnesota Vikings is connected to the availability of Jordan Love (knee), who was ruled inactive prior to Week 3's kickoff. Reed would be a low-end WR3 for fantasy managers if Love returns to start for the Packers. If Willis remains the quarterback for Green Bay in Week 4, Reed would be a flex option.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (calf) is all set to play in Week 3 as he's been on the injury report after practicing in a limited fashion during the last two practices with a calf injury. With Reed off the injury report heading into the weekend, it's going to be tough to recommend Reed unless Jordan Love (knee) sends up starting. It seems much more likely that Malik Willis gets another start this week and if that's the case, the passing volume will be tough to come by. The Packers dropped back to pass just 17 times and only had 14 pass attempts in their 16-10 win over the Indianapolis Colts in Week 2. Reed caught two targets for nine yards and had two rushing attempts for 37 yards, so the fantasy points floor is extremely low if the Packers keep close to the same game plan against the Titans. Reed is a low-end flex play for Week 3 based on the lack of opportunity should Willis start again.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (calf) was able to practice on a limited basis on Thursday after he picked up a DNP during the first practice of the week on Wednesday. Reed's participation level in Friday's practice could go a long way in determining whether he'll be able to play in Week 3 on the road against the Tennessee Titans. The 24-year-old's fantasy value for the week not only hinges on his health, but also on whether quarterback Jordan Love (knee) can return from an MCL sprain he suffered in the Week 1 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles. Love is expected to be a game-time decision on Sunday. With Malik Willis running the offense in the Week 2 win over the Indianapolis Colts, Reed caught both of his targets for nine yards and carried the ball twice for 37 yards. Fantasy managers will most likely want to keep Reed benched if he's active on Sunday and Love misses a second straight game.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed was lightly involved in the Packers' 16-10 victory over the Indianapolis Colts in Week 2. Reed caught both of his targets on the day for nine yards while adding another 37 yards rushing on two carries. Dealing with a calf injury that had Reed miss some practice time in the lead-up to Week 2, Reed looked great, lessening some of the concern moving forward. While Reed was utilized creatively in the early going, he didn't do enough in terms of production to make a dent in fantasy teams on Sunday. With only 14 pass attempts and 19 dropbacks total for starting quarterback Malik Willis, there just wasn't too much to go around for the Packers' pass-catching group. The Packers will travel to Nashville to face the Tennessee Titans in Week 3, and for fantasy, Reed should be considered a low-end WR3 or FLEX play for Green Bay.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (calf, shin) is officially active for Week 2 against the Indianapolis Colts. He had been listed as questionable after practicing in a limited capacity on Friday. Still, as the weekend progressed, Reed was trending toward playing. Indeed, he'll suit up on Sunday. Unfortunately for Reed and his fantasy managers, the Packers have ruled out quarterback Jordan Love (knee), which means Malik Willis will get the start at quarterback. It's unclear whether Willis is capable of supporting steady fantasy production from his playmakers, which means Reed drops to the WR3/FLEX tier in most leagues this week. He can still get involved in the rushing attack and break off big plays, but it's hard to envision him replicating his 138 receiving yards from the season opener.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (calf, shin) is expected to suit up against the Indianapolis Colts in Week 2 despite being listed as questionable, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. The 24-year-old is coming off a phenomenal season opener in which he totaled 138 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Unfortunately, Reed's value takes a significant step back this week with Malik Willis filling in for Jordan Love (knee). Reed is still the Packers' top receiver, but he's merely a WR3/FLEX play on Sunday.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (calf/shin) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Indianapolis Colts, according to Tom Pelissero of the NFL Network. Reed was not on the injury report earlier this week but logged a limited session on Friday due to calf and shin injuries. Fantasy managers should continue to monitor the 24-year-old's status prior to Sunday's game. The Packers are entering this Week 2 matchups with several injuries to their offense, such as quarterback Jordan Love (knee) and No.2 running back MarShawn Lloyd are also listed as questionable. Reed enjoyed a big game in the opening week as he tallied 138 receiving yards and 33 rushing yards with two total scores. If Reed suits up, he will be a solid high-end WR2 in all formats, given his big-play ability.

Packers' WR Jayden Reed scored an impressive 33.10 fantasy points in Friday's Week 1 loss in Philadelphia. Reed caught four passes for 138 yards with two touchdowns. It's the 1st time this season Reed scored at least 25 fantasy points in a game.

Dynasty | Packers receiver Jayden Reed had four catches for 138 yards and a touchdown while adding a 33-yard rushing touchdown in Green Bay's season-opening loss to the Eagles. Dynasty Analysis: Reed was a fantasy dynamo at times last year and this game showed that was no fluke. It looks like Reed, Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs are the top receivers in this offense and while any ot them can post a big game, Reed certainly looks like the best bet of the trio at the moment. The big concern with him is clearly the health of Jordan Love, so stay tuned.

Packers' WR Jayden Reed had 4 receptions for 138 yards with one touchdown in Friday's loss in Philadelphia.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed was the offensive star for the Packers in their 34-29 loss to the Philadelphia Eagles in Brazil on Friday night. Reed took a jet sweep for a 33-yard touchdown early in the second quarter and then caught a 70-yard touchdown just a few minutes later on the next Packers' possession. As the most dynamic playmaker for the Packers, Reed was a menace all over the field and was second on the team in targets next to Romeo Doubs. Reed is off to a great start to his second season in green and gold and is primed to build off of a rookie campaign that saw him score 10 touchdowns and put up over 900 yards from scrimmage. The Packers play the Indianapolis Colts in Week 2 and Reed should be considered a low-end WR2 in fantasy as long as Jordan Love is the starting quarterback, as Love left the game late in Week 1 with a leg injury.

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.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed was placed on the non-football injury list ahead of training camp, and he is not practicing on Day 1. However, the second-year playmaker said he suffered a minor toe injury at his youth camp, and it is "nothing to worry about." This is promising news for his availability later in camp as he looks to build off a strong rookie performance. The No. 50 overall pick in the 2023 NFL Draft posted 64 receptions for 793 yards and eight touchdowns and added 119 yards and two scores as a rusher in 2023. Although ascending quarterback Jordan Love is likely to spread targets around in 2024, Reed should continue to see manufactured touches and be a difference-maker in the red zone.

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (undisclosed) was placed on the Non-Football Injury list on Sunday. The second-year wideout suffered an injury while away from the team. However, he is "totally fine" and expected to miss only a few days of training camp before his eventual activation. Reed had an impressive first season in the National Football League, amassing 793 yards and eight touchdowns off 64 catches, adding 119 yards and two scores off 11 carries. With Jordan Love anticipated to have a solid year in 2024-25, Reed has 1,000-yard receiving potential, meaning he'll draw plenty of interest from fantasy managers heading toward Week 1.
