Jayden Reed in Low-End Flex Territory Against Baltimore

Thursday, December 25, 6:53 PM

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed remains decently involved in the Packers' passing attack, but will need more involvement to be a locked-in fantasy starter when the Packers host the Baltimore Ravens in Week 17. Since returning in Week 14 from injury, Reed hasn't crested double-digit fantasy points in any of his three games. Averaging four targets, four receptions, and 40 receiving yards per game since returning, Reed needs to get more involved in Green Bay's offensive production. He's still being used primarily in the slot with little utilization out wide, which limits his fantasy production. With the quarterback situation up in the air for the Packers with Jordan Love (shoulder/concussion) and Malik Willis (shoulder/illness) both questionable for Week 17, consider Reed a low-end flex for Saturday's game against Baltimore.

Puka Nacua Fined for Comments About Officiating

Friday, December 19, 4:54 PM

The NFL has fined Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua $25,000 for his comments about officiating, according to Mike Garafolo of NFL Network. Nacua compared NFL officials to lawyers and said they make calls to be on TV during a recent social media livestream. The star wide receiver also tweeted about the officials directly after the Rams' loss to the Seahawks on Thursday night. Nacua's off-field antics have somewhat overshadowed how dominant he's been on the field lately, posting a career day with 12 catches for 225 yards and two touchdowns on 16 targets against Seattle. The 24-year-old wideout is in the midst of a ridiculous three-game span, recording 28 catches (38 targets) for 573 yards and four touchdowns. The only other wide receivers to tally 573 yards or more over a three-game span are Josh Gordon, Calvin Johnson, and Chad Johnson, according to Stathead.
