Who Should I Start? DeAndre Hopkins or Jayden Reed

Thursday, July 25, 1:20 PM

Amidst some talk about a trade and/or a contract extension, Tennessee Titans veteran wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins sounds like he wants to stay with the Titans in 2024 and beyond. "I take it day by day. I love Tennessee. I love what Miss Amy's doing. This is the happiest I've been with any organization. I'll let that speak for itself," Hopkins said. The five-time Pro Bowler and three-time All-Pro wideout recorded the seventh 1,000-yard season of his career in 2023 in his first year in Tennessee and also recorded seven touchdowns in 17 games. The 32-year-old veteran wasn't as productive deep down the field for the Titans last year, though, and the addition of wideout Calvin Ridley is going to take valuable aerial targets away. This should be a pass-happy offense under new head coach Brian Callahan, but Hopkins' fantasy stock is down entering 2024, and managers should consider him as more of a WR3/4.

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.
