Is Jayden Reed a Worthy Injured Reserve Stash in Dynasty Leagues?

Saturday, October 10, 2:41 PM

Green Bay Packers wideout Jayden Reed (neck) has produced multiple splash performances and shown flashes of fantasy football stardom. In his limited role, Reed produced 18-plus fantasy points eight times and 15-plus fantasy points 12 times in a game. Through 42 career games, he's caught 142 of his 199 targets for 1,881 yards and 15 touchdowns. However, his limited role and injuries have capped his fantasy ceiling. The Green Bay Packers have deployed a wide receiver-by-committee approach throughout his career, and he has taken a backseat to Christian Watson when Watson has been healthy. Unfortunately, he's suffered two major upper-body injuries that could impact the remainder of his career. In Week 2 this season, Reed suffered a season-ending neck injury, while suffering a broken clavicle and a Jones fracture early last season. If you have an injured reserve spot open in a dynasty league, he is a worthy stash because of his high ceiling when on the field.

Puka Nacua to Undergo MRI After Knee Injury

Sunday, November 8, 12:39 PM

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua (knee) will undergo an MRI on Monday after getting hurt on a five-yard run with 1:44 left in Sunday's 20-13 win over the Washington Commanders. Mike Garafolo and Adam Schefter reported that the injury occurred on the Rams' final offensive snap and that the team's initial belief is that Nacua avoided an ACL tear. Nacua caught 14 of 19 targets for 150 yards, including the go-ahead seven-yard touchdown in the fourth quarter. The Rams visit the Arizona Cardinals in Week 10 with Davante Adams (hamstring) already on injured reserve. Tutu Atwell and Konata Mumpfield were the only other Rams wide receivers to catch a pass against Washington, combining for four catches on seven targets.
