Jayden Reed Officially Placed on Injured Reserve

Saturday, September 20, 2:17 PM

Green Bay Packers wide receiver Jayden Reed (collarbone, foot) has officially been placed on Injured Reserve, per ESPN's Adam Schefter. This move comes as no surprise after Reed suffered a fractured collarbone in Week 2. He had also been attempting to play through a Jones fracture in his foot, so Reed underwent operations on both injuries earlier this week. The IR placement guarantees Reed will miss at least four games, but he's almost certain to be out significantly longer than that. Without him, Packers wide receivers Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks, and Matthew Golden could all see a bump in both snaps and target volume. Reed could be stashed in fantasy leagues that offer an IR spot, but there's no guarantee he will be able to return in time to make an impact later this season.

Ricky Pearsall News

Ricky Pearsall to Remain Sidelined This Weekend

Friday, October 24, 5:20 PM

San Francisco 49ers wide receiver Ricky Pearsall (knee) has officially been ruled out for the Week 8 contest against the hosting Houston Texans on Sunday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. Pearsall, who has not practiced at all since suffering a PCL sprain in his knee in Week 4, will miss a fourth straight game this weekend. The fact that the 25-year-old has yet to practice suggests that he could be trending towards missing a fifth straight contest next week when the team takes on the New York Giants on the road. When healthy, the former first-rounder will be a big part of the Niners' offense, but the problem is he's proven to be quite injury-prone early in his NFL career. Jauan Jennings and Kendrick Bourne will continue to operate as the team's top two receivers, but running back Christian McCaffrey has been backup quarterback Mac Jones' top target with QB Brock Purdy (toe) sidelined.
