Josh Reynolds Will Have More Upside In Week 2

Friday, September 13, 9:34 PM

Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds (Achilles) was on the team's injury report this week but managed to put in a full practice on Friday and won't carry an injury designation into the Week 2 contest on Sunday in Denver against the Pittsburgh Steelers. We aren't necessarily recommending Reynolds as a flex play in standard-sized 12-team fantasy leagues, but he's going to have a bit more upside with rookie Devaughn Vele (ribs) being ruled out. In the Week 1 loss to the Seattle Seahawks, Vele played nearly half the offensive snaps and received eight targets, which is as many as Reynolds had on his way to a five-catch, 45-yard day in his Broncos debut. The 29-year-old should have an expanded role behind Courtland Sutton, but fantasy managers should still temper their expectations with quarterback Bo Nix making just his second career start against a Steelers defense that shut down the Falcons in Week 1.

Darius Slayton News

Darius Slayton Limited In Practice Thursday

Friday, September 13, 12:15 AM

New York Giants wide receiver Darius Slayton (concussion protocol) was a limited participant in practice on Thursday. This is somewhat of an upgrade given that he wasn't able to practice at all on Wednesday. Still, he'll have to clear concussion protocol before the Giants can make him active in Week 2. If he does suit up, Slayton will benefit from a favorable matchup against the Washington Commanders as he looks to build on last week's three catches and 26 receiving yards. Even with a solid matchup on tap, Slayton lacks much fantasy appeal given his role in a struggling Daniel Jones-led offense.
