Jacksonville Jaguars wide receiver Josh Reynolds (coach's decision) and running back D'Ernest Johnson (coach's decision) are both healthy scratches for Week 14 against the Tennessee Titans. Reynolds was claimed off waivers from the Denver Broncos earlier this week, and while he has a chance to contribute amidst the Jaguars' numerous wide receiver injuries, it appears he'll need at least one more week to get integrated within the offense. Meanwhile, Johnson is inactive for the second week in a row as Jacksonville experiments with Keilan Robinson as its No. 3 running back behind Travis Etienne Jr. and Tank Bigsby. Both Reynolds and Johnson can be dropped to waivers in fantasy football.

According to Mike Garafolo of the NFL Network, the Jacksonville Jaguars have claimed wide receiver Josh Reynolds. Reynolds was placed on the waivers by the Denver Broncos. The 29-year-old played in just the first five games of the regular season before suffering a finger fracture. During this stretch, Reynolds averaged 36.6 yards per game with 7.4 PPR points per game. With Jacksonville, fantasy managers should expect Reynolds to operate in a starting role, as several wideouts on that roster are on the injured reserve. While Brian Thomas Jr. will continue to see most of the opportunities alongside tight end Evan Engram, Reynolds is someone to monitor in deeper 3WR formats as he could carve out a viable role down the stretch.

The Denver Broncos waived wide receiver Josh Reynolds (hand) on Tuesday as they head into their bye week, according to the team. Reynolds has been on Injured Reserve since Week 5 and had his 21-day practice window opened ahead of the team's Week 11 win over the Atlanta Falcons. He has been practicing over the last three weeks and looked ready to return from his hand injury, but now he'll be on the open market and will be looking to latch on with another team with the 2024 campaign in the home stretch. Before his injury, Reynolds caught 12 passes for 183 yards and a touchdown in five games in Denver, back when rookie quarterback Bo Nix was struggling to move the offense consistently. With Reynolds now out of the picture for the rest of the year, it's good news for rookies Devaughn Vele and Troy Franklin and Marvin Mims Jr. and Lil'Jordan Humphrey behind WR1 Courtland Sutton.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds (hand) has been downgraded from questionable to out for Monday night's contest against the visiting Cleveland Browns and he will remain on Injured Reserve head into next week's bye. Reynolds' 21-day activation window closes on Wednesday, though, so if the Broncos have visions of him contributing again this year, they must activate him from IR before that date. He has not played since Week 5 due to a hand injury that required surgery, and he also suffered gunshot wounds during an off-the-field incident. At the time of his injury, the 29-year-old was an untrustworthy WR4/5 in deeper fantasy leagues as a distant No. 2 behind Courtland Sutton. Since the injury, rookies Devaughn Vele and Troy Franklin and Lil'Jordan Humphrey and Marvin Mims Jr. have stepped up, so a limited role in the passing game should be expected for Reynold when/if he returns in 2024.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds (finger) is listed as questionable ahead of the Week 13 matchup against the Cleveland Browns. Reynolds has been a full participant in practice this week, but remains on the injured reserve on Saturday. The fact he hasn't been activated yet is probably why he's getting a questionable tag heading into this game. Reynolds has not played since Week 5 after being the victim of a shooting. He hasn't done much on the field when healthy this season, so fantasy managers can probably look elsewhere for help ahead of Monday's game.

Despite practicing in full all week, the Denver Broncos ruled wide receiver Josh Reynolds (hand) out for Week 12 against the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday. Although Reynolds is getting close to making his return, he'll remain on Injured Reserve for another week. The 29-year-old's next chance to play for the Broncos will be in Week 13 against the Cleveland Browns on Monday Night Football. In addition to landing on IR with a hand injury, Reynolds was shot multiple times in an off-the-field incident. Those injuries apparently aren't holding him back at all. When Reynolds does return, he'll be battling for targets behind Courtland Sutton with rookies Devaughn Vele and Troy Franklin and Lil'Jordan Humphrey. Denver's offense is peaking right now, but it's still hard to envision Reynolds having a consistent enough role to warrant fantasy attention in 12-team leagues.
Nov 22, 2024 5:58 PM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds (hand) was a full-go in the team's first practice of Week 12 on Wednesday. Reynolds has not played since the Week 5 win over the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders and remains on Injured Reserve due to a hand injury, but he appears to be tracking towards a return to face the Raiders again this Sunday. In addition to a hand injury, the 29-year-old sustained gunshot wounds in an off-the-field incident while on IR. He has apparently recovered nicely from those injuries, though, and should be an option in Denver's passing attack to close out the season. Reynolds caught 12 of 19 targets for 183 yards and a touchdown in his five games before getting hurt and will most likely struggle for consistent targets behind Courtland Sutton when he returns. Rookies Devaughn Vele and Troy Franklin and Lil'Jordan Humphrey have seen bigger roles with Reynolds out.
Nov 20, 2024 8:10 PM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds (finger) returned to practice on Wednesday, opening his 21-day practice window. Ryan McFadden of The Denver Post reported the news. The 29-year-old wideout was on the shelf for the last month when the Broncos placed him on injured reserve due to a broken finger. Reynolds was also the victim of a shooting not six days later. However, the Texas A&M product was able to log a full session in the team's first practice ahead of Week 11, suggesting that his return could come sooner rather than later. When Reynolds is activated, one of his fellow wideouts, Lil'Jordan Humphrey, Troy Franklin, and Devaughn Vele, will see their playing time cut; though, who that will be remains to be seen.

Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds (arm, head, finger), who is currently on Injured Reserve due to a broken finger injury, was injured in a shooting on Oct. 18 in Denver after being followed from a strip club. Reynolds was shot twice, once in his left arm and once in the back of his head. "Josh Reynolds was a victim of a shooting on Friday in Denver and received treatment for minor injuries. Out of respect for the legal process, we will defer further comment on this matter to the authorities," the Broncos said in a statement. The 29-year-old is extremely lucky to come away with only minor injuries after being shot twice. He is eligible to return from IR in Week 10 against the division-rival Kansas City Chiefs, but his new injuries may push that timetable back. Reynolds is rostered in just 1% of Yahoo leagues and had 12 catches for 183 yards and a TD in his first five games with Denver.
Oct 24, 2024 6:36 PM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds (finger) is dealing with a fractured finger, according to head coach Sean Payton. The Broncos put Reynolds on Injured Reserve over the weekend, so he'll be forced to miss at least the next three games after Denver's Week 6 loss to the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. The earliest Reynolds would be able to return will be for a Week 10 divisional clash against the Kansas City Chiefs. Until then, Broncos rookie wideouts Devaughn Vele and Troy Franklin will see added opportunities to make plays in the passing game alongside Courtland Sutton. Vele has shown some nice chemistry with rookie quarterback Bo Nix in his two games played, while Franklin, a former college teammate of Nix's at Oregon, scored his first career NFL touchdown in Week 6. Still, both wideouts will need to show more to become realistic waiver-wire pickups in 12-team leagues.
Oct 14, 2024 7:58 PM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds (finger) has been placed on the injured reserve ahead of the Week 6 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers. The organization was hopeful that Reynolds would only miss one game after having a minor finger surgery. Clearly that wasn't the case as Reynolds will now sit out the next four weeks. The absence of Reynolds should mean more playing time for Lil' Jordan Humphrey, Marvin Mims Jr. and Troy Franklin. Between the trio, Humphrey has the biggest upside after a 48-yard performance last week.
Oct 12, 2024 7:02 PM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds (finger) had minor finger surgery and is expected to miss at least one game and likely a few more as he works to potentially return in late October, according to a league source. Reynolds will not suit up this Sunday as the team takes on the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers in Denver. The 29-year-old was already heading towards being inactive this weekend after not practicing at all this week. With just three receptions on six targets for 45 yards and a touchdown in the last three games, Reynolds wasn't really on the fantasy radar in most leagues to begin with heading into the divisional showdown versus the Bolts. With Reynolds sidelined now, look for Lil'Jordan Humphrey, Marvin Mims Jr. and rookie Troy Franklin to have more chances for targets behind WR1 Courtland Sutton. We wouldn't recommend any of Humphrey, Mims or Franklin as streaming options against a tough LA defense.
Oct 11, 2024 3:11 PM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds (hand) missed his second straight practice this week on Thursday due to a hand injury. Reynolds' status for the Week 6 contest versus the division-rival Los Angeles Chargers this Sunday is firmly up in the air. He'll likely need to practice in some fashion on Friday to avoid being ruled out entirely. If Reynolds is limited or out entirely this weekend, look for the likes of Lil'Jordan Humphrey, Marvin Mims Jr. and rookie Troy Franklin to battle for more targets behind WR1 Courtland Sutton. The 29-year-old Reynolds was much more involved in the first several games of the 2024 season. During the team's three-game winning streak, Reynolds only has three catches on six targets for 45 yards, although he did find the end zone for the first time this year in the Week 5 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Reynolds belongs on the waiver wire in most formats.
Oct 10, 2024 6:33 PM EST
For the second straight week, Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds saw just two targets from rookie quarterback Bo Nix in the 38-14 blowout win over the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders on Sunday. Reynolds caught one of those two targets for a nine-yard touchdown reception, his first score of the 2024 season. The 29-year-old pass-catcher entered the Week 4 upset win over the New York Jets leading the team in receiving yards, but he's caught just one pass on four targets for the nine-yard touchdown the last two games. It was especially disappointing that he didn't do much as the team scored a season-high 34 points. Courtland Sutton will continue to be the unquestioned top target for Nix, and Denver's offense to this point hasn't been explosive enough to sustain more than one wideout for fantasy purposes. Reynolds belongs on the waiver wire in most fantasy leagues heading into Week 6 against the Chargers.
Oct 7, 2024 10:23 AM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds (foot) is rostered in only 2% of Yahoo leagues and shouldn't be anywhere near starting fantasy lineups for the team's Week 5 matchup at home against the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders. Reynolds surprisingly entered the Week 4 tilt against the New York Jets leading the team in receiving yards after three weeks, but he proceeded to put up a donut last Sunday with no catches on only two targets in the 10-9 upset win. Conditions should be more favorable against a softer Raiders defense this weekend, but Reynolds belongs on the waiver wire in most fantasy leagues as the WR2 in one of the weakest offenses in the NFL. At best, he's a volatile WR4/flex for those desperate in deeper formats. Reynolds has 11 catches on 17 targets for 174 yards and no touchdowns through four games, placing him outside the top-50 wideouts in half-PPR scoring.
Oct 5, 2024 10:24 AM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds entered the Week 4 contest against the New York Jets as Denver's leading receiver through the first three games. But in the 10-9 rain-soaked upset victory on Sunday over the Jets in Week 4, rookie quarterback Bo Nix only looked Reynolds' way two times, and he was unable to catch either of the two targets. We warned fantasy managers that Reynolds was an extremely volatile and desperate flex play in an offense that is among the worst in the NFL after four weeks of the 2024 campaign. Reynolds and the Broncos should be able to move the ball much better in a Week 5 divisional matchup versus the Las Vegas Raiders, but expectations should remain low for Broncos pass-catchers not named Courtland Sutton. The 29-year-old caught 11 of his 17 targets for 174 yards and no touchdowns through the first three games.
Sep 30, 2024 10:51 AM EST
Surprisingly, Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds leads the team with 174 receiving yards on 11 catches (15 targets) through the first three weeks of the season. He is second on the team in targets behind Courtland Sutton's 27. But with the Broncos offense struggling under rookie quarterback Bo Nix as he spreads the ball around, Reynolds profiles as a desperation flex play in Week 4 against a stout New York Jets defense that has allowed the fourth-fewest passing yards per game so far in 2024. Reynolds has been battling an Achilles injury that kept him limited in Wednesday's practice, but he was a full-go on Thursday and Friday and was removed from the final injury report for the week. The 29-year-old is only rostered in 3% of Yahoo leagues at the moment and is coming off his worst game in the Week 3 in over the Buccaneers, when he caught two passes for 36 yards.
Sep 28, 2024 11:20 AM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds surprisingly came into the Week 3 matchup on the road against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers with a team-high 138 receiving yards on nine catches (13 targets) through the first two weeks. Reynolds wasn't able to maintain that momentum in Sunday's 26-7 win over the Bucs, though, as he caught both of his targets for 36 yards. His two targets ranked fifth on the team behind fellow wideouts Courtland Sutton, Lil'Jordan Humphrey and rookie Troy Franklin. The 29-year-old will continue to have a role all year in this offense as long as he remains healthy, but he will most likely battle for targets behind Sutton on a weekly basis with the likes of Humphrey and rookies Franklin and Devaughn Vele, who was a healthy scratch in Week 3. Reynolds is rostered in only 4% of Yahoo leagues and should stay on the waiver wire in Week 4 against the New York Jets.
Sep 23, 2024 12:21 AM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds (Achilles) was on the Week 3 injury report but practiced in full on Thursday and Friday and will not carry a designation into Sunday's road contest versus the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Reynolds surprisingly leads Denver with 138 receiving yards on nine receptions (13 targets) through the first two weeks in his first year with the team, but that doesn't mean we're recommending him as a flex play this weekend. The Broncos offense, which is being led by rookie quarterback Bo Nix, has averaged just 13 points (fourth-fewest) and 263 yards (fifth-fewest) through their first two contests. Things should be slightly easier against Tampa's D on Sunday, but fantasy managers just shouldn't have much confidence in this offense at all. Rookie Devaughn Vele (ribs), who had eight targets in Week 1, is also returning after sitting out the Week 2 loss to the Steelers.
Sep 21, 2024 1:52 PM EST
Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds caught four of his five targets for a team-high 93 yards in the team's 13-6 loss to the Pittsburgh Pirates on Sunday in Week 2. Reynolds has now led the Broncos in receiving yards in each of the first two games of the season. His four receptions were tied for second on the team, while his five targets were also tied for second with Lil'Jordan Humphrey and running back Javonte Williams. The 29-year-old was on the injury report this week due to an Achilles injury, but he appeared fine on Sunday and has now developed a nice little bond with struggling rookie quarterback Bo Nix. The inexperienced QB has mostly spread the ball around in an inefficient offense through two weeks, but Reynolds has been the biggest beneficiary. He's worth a look as a bench stash in deeper fantasy leagues but can't be considered much more than a low-upside WR4/flex in a bad offense.
