Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown has been a consistent producer so far this season, hauling in 44 catches for 452 yards and six touchdowns on 51 targets through six games. The 25-year-old has recorded at least seven targets and seven catches in five straight contests. St. Brown could be set up for another high-volume day in Week 7, as the Lions will take on the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in a game that profiles as a shootout. The Bucs currently rank 23rd in the NFL in passing yards allowed (1,520) and have allowed the fourth-most receptions of 40-plus yards (four). The last time these two teams squared off in Week 2 of the 2024 season, St. Brown earned a whopping 18 targets, hauling in 11 catches for 119 yards. He profiles as a must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 7 against Tampa Bay.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown was largely held in check by the Kansas City Chiefs in Week 6. St. Brown still hauled in nine catches on 10 targets, but he recorded just 45 receiving yards and was held out of the end zone. The 25-year-old has logged 44 catches for 452 yards and six touchdowns on 51 targets through six games so far this season. He should have an easier matchup on paper in Week 7 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who rank 24th in the NFL in passing yards allowed (1,520) through six weeks. Despite the mediocre performance in Week 6, St. Brown remains a clear must-start fantasy wide receiver.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown missed the team's Wednesday practice this week due to a wrist injury, but he practiced in full on Thursday and Friday and does not carry an injury designation into Detroit's Week 6 matchup with the Kansas City Chiefs. St. Brown has been one of the most productive wideouts in the NFL so far this season, recording 35 catches for 407 yards and six touchdowns through five games. Kansas City has fielded a stingy pass defense so far this season, allowing the ninth-fewest passing yards (999) and fourth-fewest number of passing touchdowns (five) in the NFL. Still, St. Brown should see a significant target volume as the clear number one option in the Lions' passing game for quarterback Jared Goff. St. Brown profiles as a must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 6 against the Chiefs.
Oct 10, 2025 6:01 PM EST
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (wrist) practiced in full on Thursday after missing the team's Wednesday practice due to a wrist injury. The 25-year-old appears to be trending towards being available to play in Week 6 against the Kansas City Chiefs. St. Brown is the unquestioned number one option in the passing game for Detroit with 35 catches for 407 yards and six touchdowns on 41 targets through five games this season. If things were to reverse course and St. Brown were to miss time, Lions wideouts Jameson Williams and Isaac TeSlaa would likely see an uptick in target share, as would tight end Sam LaPorta and running back Jahmyr Gibbs. Assuming St. Brown can play on Sunday, he profiles as a must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 6 against Kansas City.
Oct 9, 2025 4:59 PM EST
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (wrist) returned to the practice field on Thursday, according to Nolan Bianchi of the Detroit News. It's unclear if St. Brown will be listed as limited or a full-go for Thursday's practice, but his return to the field should put fantasy managers' minds at ease after he didn't practice at all on Wednesday. Barring something strange happening, the 25-year-old should be good to go for a Week 6 tilt on Sunday night in Kansas City against the Chiefs. St. Brown has not slowed down at all through the first five games of the 2025 season, catching 35 of his 41 targets for 407 yards and a league-high six touchdowns. The three-time Pro Bowler ranks second in fantasy points among receivers so far, behind only the Rams' Puka Nacua. St. Brown is a must-start in fantasy lineups despite a less-than-ideal matchup on Sunday night against KC's defense on the road.
Oct 9, 2025 1:38 PM EST
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (wrist) did not practice on Wednesday, according to the team. It is unclear when or how St. Brown suffered this injury, but fantasy managers should keep a close eye on the injury report for the rest of the week. It is only Wednesday, and it could be a precautionary measure for their star wideout, but it is worth monitoring regardless. St. Brown is off to a remarkable start to the season, leading the league with six touchdown catches and ranking as WR2 in PPR points per game. Other Lions pass catchers like Sam LaPorta, Jameson Williams, and perhaps rookie Isaac TeSlaa could see a boost in production if St. Brown were to miss Sunday night's game against the Chiefs.
Oct 8, 2025 4:11 PM EST
According to Nolan Bianchi of The Detroit News, Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown is not practicing on Wednesday. The team has yet to provide an update on why the star wideout is being held out of action. Fantasy managers should pay close attention to the injury report later on Wednesday in case this injury is serious. However, given that it is only Wednesday, St. Brown will have two more opportunities to return to practice before Friday's final report. After his quiet showing in Week 1, St. Brown has gone on to average a stellar 26.0 PPR points per game. During this four-game stretch, he has tallied 90.5 yards per game and caught 7.8 receptions per game. If he were to miss time, Jameson Williams would slide into the WR1 role.
Oct 8, 2025 2:14 PM EST
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown recorded eight catches for 100 yards on nine targets in his team's 37-24 Week 5 win over the Cincinnati Bengals. St. Brown was held out of the end zone in Week 5 for the first time since Week 1, but he's now recorded at least seven receptions and 70 receiving yards in four straight games. All told, the 25-year-old has recorded 35 catches for 407 yards and six touchdowns on 41 targets through his first five games of 2025. St. Brown will have a more challenging matchup in Week 6, as the Lions will travel to Kansas City to face the Chiefs. Still, he's a must-start fantasy wide receiver, regardless of matchup.
Oct 6, 2025 7:46 PM EST
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown has been one of the NFL's most productive pass-catchers through four weeks, recording 27 catches for 307 yards and six touchdowns on 32 targets so far this season. St. Brown should be well-positioned for success again in Week 5 in a favorable matchup on paper against the Cincinnati Bengals. Cincinnati has allowed the third-most passing yards (1,089) and fifth-most passing touchdowns (eight) in the league through four games. St. Brown profiles as a must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 5.
Oct 3, 2025 4:54 PM EST
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown recorded seven catches for 70 yards and two touchdowns in his team's 34-10 Week 4 win over the Cleveland Browns. St. Brown is on a touchdown heater with six scores in his last three games. To go along with the six touchdowns, the 25-year-old has hauled in 27 catches for 314 yards on 32 targets through his first four games of 2025. As long as St. Brown stays healthy, he profiles as a must-start fantasy WR1.
Sep 28, 2025 9:19 PM EST
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown is off to a stellar start to the 2025 season, recording 20 catches for 237 yards and four touchdowns through his first three games. St. Brown has been targeted a team-high 25 times and is the clear number one option in Detroit's passing game. The Lions offense has a difficult matchup in Week 4 against the Cleveland Browns, who have allowed the fifth-fewest passing yards (521) in the NFL so far. However, St. Brown is a receiver who can win in the short and intermediate areas, so he could still see a high target volume even in the Lions' struggle to push the ball downfield. St. Brown is a must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 4.
Sep 26, 2025 10:50 PM EST
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown hauled in seven of his eight targets for a team-leading 77 receiving yards and his fourth touchdown of the season. The Lions' ground game was firing on all cylinders with both David Montgomery and Jahmyr Gibbs posting huge games, but the offense still found ways to get St. Brown involved, including his third-quarter touchdown, which came on an 18-yard strike from Jared Goff. St. Brown's score tied the game at 21-21, and the Lions added 17 points in the fourth quarter to win, 38-31. St. Brown will continue to be an elite play as the centerpiece of his team's passing attack as they host the Browns in Week 4. Cleveland has been good against opposing receivers despite their 0-3 record, but St. Brown is still a strong option since he's so involved.
Sep 23, 2025 9:34 AM EST
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown dominated the Chicago Bears in Week 2, recording nine catches for 115 yards and three touchdowns. He's now faced with a much tougher test against the Baltimore Ravens in Week 3. St. Brown has been the clear number one option for Lions quarterback Jared Goff in the early going, leading Detroit with 17 targets. In his lone career game against the Ravens back in 2023, St. Brown was targeted by Goff a whopping 19 times, hauling in 13 catches for 102 yards. Expect Goff to lean on St. Brown heavily again, especially if Baltimore gets an early lead and forces Detroit into a pass-heavy game script. St. Brown is a must-start fantasy wide receiver in all formats in Week 3.
Sep 20, 2025 9:15 PM EST
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown put together an unbelievable performance against the Chicago Bears on Sunday. St. Brown was fairly quiet in the season opener with four receptions for 45 yards in the Week 1 loss. He completely exploded in Week 2 giving fantasy managers an epic afternoon. St. Brown hauled in nine of his 11 targets for 115 yards and three touchdowns in the win. The Bears secondary had absolutely no answers for St. Brown all afternoon long. The superstar wideout recorded his first career three-touchdown game. The Lions offense erupted for 52 points, but we'll see if they can keep it going next week against the Baltimore Ravens. St. Brown should be viewed as a mid-range WR1 for that one.
Sep 14, 2025 6:12 PM EST
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown was held in check by the Green Bay Packers in Week 1, recording four catches for 45 yards on six targets. As a player who typically does his best work out of the slot, St. Brown has an easier matchup on paper in Week 2 against the Chicago Bears, who could be without starting nickel corner Kyler Gordon (hamstring). The Lions could be without starting left tackle Taylor Decker (shoulder), which may incentivize quarterback Jared Goff to prioritize St. Brown as a short-area target. In eight career games against Chicago, St. Brown has recorded 46 catches for 515 yards and two touchdowns. He profiles as a must-start fantasy wide receiver in Week 2.
Sep 12, 2025 1:59 PM EST
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown has established himself as one of the most consistent wideouts in the NFL, topping 115 catches and 1,200 receiving yards while scoring double-digit touchdowns in each of the past two seasons. However, St. Brown has historically been held relatively in check by his 2025 Week 1 opponent, the Green Bay Packers. In eight career games against Green Bay, St. Brown has totaled 47 catches for 481 yards and three touchdowns. He failed to reach 60 yards receiving in either of his two matchups against the Packers last season. One potential variable for 2025 is Green Bay's addition of star edge rusher Micah Parsons (back), who is officially questionable for Week 1 with a back injury but is expected to play. St. Brown is a master of intermediate and short-area route running, so he could be targeted frequently in the quick passing game if Parsons is putting pressure on Lions quarterback Jared Goff. St. Brown profiles as a low-end fantasy WR1 in Week 1 despite the potentially sub-optimal matchup.
Sep 5, 2025 4:54 PM EST
The Detroit Lions offense has had a learning curve this summer with the transition from former offensive coordinator Ben Johnson to new OC John Morton, but the offense reportedly looked dominant in joint practice with the Miami Dolphins on Wednesday and could be finally hitting its stride with the regular season quickly approaching. Wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown was the best player on both teams on Wednesday. "We feel like as an offense maybe this camp there has been some struggles for us as an offense. But I think that's normal. You got new coaches and different moving parts and you're going against a really good defense every day," St. Brown said. The 25-year-old caught 115 passes for 1,263 yards and 12 touchdowns in 2024 and is arguably the best slot receiver in the league. Jameson Williams could demand more targets this year, though, potentially making St. Brown a bust candidate as a top-five fantasy wideout.
Aug 14, 2025 12:53 PM EST
The Athletic's Colton Pouncy writes that Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (knee) took part in training camp practice on Sunday. St. Brown had offseason surgery to clean up his knee, but the fact that he's already taking part in on-field work at training camp this summer is a sign that it shouldn't be an issue when the regular season kicks off in early September. It wouldn't be a surprise if the 25-year-old is limited in some workouts early in camp, but all signs point to him being fine for fantasy managers to begin the 2025 campaign. In 2024, St. Brown had 115 receptions for 1,263 yards and 12 touchdowns in 17 regular-season games on 141 targets, and he should continue to be quarterback Jared Goff's primary passing-game target in new offensive coordinator John Morton's scheme. RotoBaller has St. Brown ranked as the No. 7 wideout.
Jul 21, 2025 1:59 PM EST
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown (knee) underwent a cleanup procedure on his knee following the 2024 campaign but is expected to be ready for training camp. While it's never encouraging to hear about a player going under the knife, this procedure is a minor one and should not impact his ability in 2025. Over the last three seasons, St. Brown has averaged 113.3 receptions, 1,313 receiving yards, and 9.3 receiving touchdowns. Assuming he doesn't suffer any setbacks, the USC product remains a clear WR1 in fantasy football. Although offensive coordinator Ben Johnson is gone, he should remain the target hog in Detroit's offense.
Jun 5, 2025 2:06 PM EST
Detroit Lions wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown caught eight of his 10 targets for 137 yards during Saturday's Divisional Round loss to the Washington Commanders. The 25-year-old put together an impressive showing, but it wasn't enough to fend off a relentless Washington team. St. Brown and his Lions will fall short of a Super Bowl for the second consecutive season, and preparation for the 2025 season will commence immediately. Those preparations could look a little different, though, if offensive coordinator Ben Johnson accepts a head coaching job elsewhere. A new offensive scheme could throw a learning curve at St. Brown, but he'll likely be able to adapt and remain a mid-to-high WR1 for fantasy purposes. Fantasy managers should anticipate St. Brown being selected in the first round of fantasy drafts next summer.
