Jayden Reed News
Thursday, August 13, 8:31 PM
Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed was on the field with the starters in the Packers' 28-9 loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers in the first preseason game for Green Bay. Reed, who signed a three-year extension to stay with the Packers through the 2029 season, earned two targets, catching one of them for 19 yards. Notably, per PFF's Nathan Jahnke, Reed did not play outside of 11 personnel, when three wide receivers were in the formation. The Packers played two snaps of 12 personnel with the starters in and Matthew Golden was in the game while Reed was not. That is a clear signal that things will likely remain the same for Reed as it's been in previous seasons with him being a slot-only player. Reed should be a focal point in the Packers' offense, but he's behind Tucker Kraft and potentially Golden and Christian Watson in the pecking order. The Packers' next preseason game comes on August 21st against the Denver Broncos. For fantasy football purposes, Reed is a volatile WR3 with upside for 2026.

Marvin Harrison Jr. News
Monday, August 17, 10:15 AM
Arizona Cardinals wide receiver Marvin Harrison Jr. continues to show encouraging signs during his third training camp. Josh Weinfuss noted Monday that the Cardinals have seen growth from Harrison this summer, with the former fourth overall pick making some impressive catches and putting his natural talent on display. There have been flashes throughout camp, including a diving catch for more than 50 yards on a deep ball from Jacoby Brissett earlier this month. Harrison is coming off a difficult second season that was interrupted by several health issues. He finished 2025 with 41 catches for 608 yards and four touchdowns in 12 games while dealing with a concussion, appendicitis and heel problems along the way. His first two NFL seasons haven't produced the consistent numbers many expected when Arizona drafted him, but the talent has never really been the question. Harrison putting together stronger work this summer is a good sign as he looks to take a step forward in 2026.
