Redskins Beat: TE Jordan Reed returning to Pro Bowl form

Jul 28, 2019

You know who's having a fantastic training camp? Jordan Reed. You know who's not having a fantastic training camp? The people who are being asked to cover Jordan Reed.

The two dominant storylines here revolve around the three-man QB competition and Trent Williams' absence. If you search beyond those, however, Reed's performance through three practice days has to be the most important development.

Fantasy Impact:

We all know injuries are a concern with Reed. But as the story pointed out, Reed's 2018 season was disappointing, but not for the usual reasons. The tight end appeared in 13 out of 16 contests, which was the second-most of his six-year career. However, he wasn't much of a factor, totaling 54 grabs, scoring only twice and posting his lowest catch-rate as a pro by far. We rank Reed 18th, so he's certainly obtainable for anyone who wants to take a chance.

Cowboys TE Jake Ferguson officially Out for Week 12

Adam Schefter

Cowboys list TE Jake Ferguson as out for Sunday’s game vs. Washington due to his concussion.

Related Players: Luke Schoonmaker

Fantasy Impact:

This puts Schoonmaker more or less in TE streaming consideration, but there are far better options this week, which puts him low on the totem pole.

Eagles WR DeVonta Smith officially Out for Week 12

Mike Garafolo

yesterday · 4:04 PM EST

Eagles ruled out WR DeVonta Smith (hamstring) for Sunday against the Rams.

Related Players: A.J. Brown, Jahan Dotson, Johnny Wilson, Dallas Goedert

Fantasy Impact:

It's a bit of a crapshoot as to who the "WR2" on the offense will be, but now that he's ruled out, Brown and Goedert should get a nice boost to their bottom line. That would lock Goedert into a no-doubt TE1 role in Week 12.
