Jayden Reed

Week 16 vs. New Orleans Saints
Figuring out what to do with Jayden Reed feels akin to a deep descent into madness. Since the team's Week 10 bye, he has scored three touchdowns, but failed to hit 40 yards in a game even once. He delivered a clunker of a 5-34-0 receiving line last week, but the team gave him three carries (27 yards) in an obvious attempt to put the ball in his hands, but it's just not enough for our purposes if he's only getting six targets a game, most of which are around the line of scrimmage. He's worth a WR3 look here in Week 16, but his floor —as evidenced by his goose egg in Week 14— is insanely low.

Week 14 @ Detroit Lions
Jayden Reed had looked unstoppable in the first two games with Jordan Love back at the helm but the rotating nature of WR production in Green Bay finally caught up with him in Weeks 6-8. Things got back on track before the bye though, as Reed took six targets for a 5-113-0 stat line, racking up catches of 28, 32, and 41 yards. This was (of course) before the other shoe fell, leaving Reed with a puny 73 yards in the three games since the bye. What an absolute roller coaster.

You simply cannot bench Reed due to his fantastic ceiling—as evidenced by his two touchdowns in Week 13— but save yourself a little heartache and consider him a WR2 in this tough matchup against the Lions.

Week 12 vs. San Francisco 49ers
Jayden Reed had looked unstoppable in the first two games with Jordan Love back at the helm but the rotating nature of WR production in Green Bay finally caught up with him in Weeks 6-8. Things got back on track before the bye though, as Reed took six targets for a 5-113-0 stat line, racking up catches of 28, 32, and 41 yards. The 49ers defense provides a tougher task, but his high ceiling still locks him into WR2 territory.
