Packers' Jayden Reed: Tallies 57 total yards, TD in loss
Rotowire
Reed brought in four of seven targets for 43 yards and a touchdown and rushed once for 14 yards in the Packers' 31-27 wild-card loss to the Bears on Saturday.
Reed tied Matthew Golden for second in receptions and Christian Watson for the same slotting in targets for the Packers on the night. The versatile Reed added an 18-yard touchdown reception just past the halfway point of the second quarter, and although he did have an ill-timed drop early in Green Bay's final drive, he atoned with a personal game-long 20-yard grab later in the possession. Reed appeared in just seven regular-season games in the 2025 campaign due to an assortment of injuries, the most serious being a broken collarbone. He compiled a 19-207-1 line on 22 targets while rushing three times for 28 yards and recording 21 punt-return yards. Reed will head into the final year of his current contract in 2026 and should be in line for a key role in the air attack once more.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Limited to eight snaps in Week 18
Rotowire
Reed went without a target while taking the field for eight of the Packers' 51 snaps on offense in Sunday's 16-3 loss to the Vikings.
The fact that Reed even played at all was notable in itself after the Packers opted to rest the vast majority of their starters, including fellow wideouts Romeo Doubs and Christian Watson, who were active but didn't receive any snaps. Reed dealt with an illness leading up to Sunday's game but ultimately didn't carry an injury designation into the regular-season finale. Assuming he can get in a full practice week, Reed shouldn't face any restrictions in Saturday's wild-card matchup with the Bears. Reed totaled seven catches for 66 yards in the Packers' two games against the Bears during the regular season.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Limited with illness
Rotowire
Reed (illness) was limited at practice Thursday.
An illness has capped Reed's practice reps this week, leaving him just one more chance to mix into drills Friday before the Packers potentially tag him with a designation for Sunday's contest at Minnesota. Since he returned to action Week 14 following an IR stint, he's hauled in 16 of 17 targets for 162 yards and no touchdowns over the last four games.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Four receptions in Week 17
Rotowire
Reed recorded four receptions on four targets for 41 yards in Saturday's 41-24 loss to the Ravens.
Reed finished second on the team with four targets, though the majority of that opportunity came in short areas of the field. The exception was a deep target down the right sideline that went for 30 yards early in the third quarter, ultimately helping to set up a field goal for the Packers. While Reed plays an important role in the offense, he's been held below 50 yards from scrimmage in three of four games since recovering from a collarbone injury.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Four touches in OT loss
Rotowire
Reed brought in all three targets for 35 yards and rushed once for six yards in the Packers' 22-16 overtime loss to the Bears on Saturday night.
Reed wasn't consistently involved throughout, and he exited the game for a spell in the second half to be evaluated for an undisclosed injury, per Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com. Jordan Love's exit from the contest in the second quarter due to a concussion likely didn't help matters, although Reed hauled in a 31-yard pass from Malik Willis in overtime for the majority of his production. Reed will aim to bounce back with a more productive showing at the expense of the Ravens secondary in a Week 17 home matchup next Saturday night.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Week 16 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
The Packers could be without Christian Watson (chest) in Week 16 at Chicago, which would mean an expanded role for Romeo Doubs, Matthew Golden (33 percent rostered) and Reed. Reed would be worth using as a starter in three-receiver leagues if Watson is out, and Reed has nine catches for 86 yards on 10 targets and two carries for 22 yards in two games since coming back from the collarbone and foot injuries that knocked him out in Week 2. Golden looked good in Week 15 at Denver after Watson was injured, with three catches for 55 yards on four targets, and he could also be a starter in three-receiver leagues against the Bears.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Six targets in loss
Rotowire
Reed recorded five receptions on six targets for 55 yards in Sunday's 34-26 loss to the Broncos.
Reed tied for the team lead with six targets, though the Packers continued to spread opportunity evenly among several of their skill-position players. He was one of three receivers to top 50 receiving yards, with most of his production coming after the catch -- including a 29-yard gain midway through the second quarter to help set up a Green Bay touchdown. Reed has combined to see 10 targets in two games since returning from a collarbone injury, and he should remain a key playmaker in the Packers' offense down the stretch of the regular season.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Avoids injury designation
Rotowire
Reed (shoulder) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game at Denver.
Reed returned from an absence of nearly three months to take six touches for 53 yards in last week's 28-21 win over Chicago. His snap share (48 percent) and route share (65 percent) were in line with pre-injury norms, which is a good sign health-wise even if he's still not getting enough playing time to be reliable for fantasy.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Limited in practice
Rotowire
Reed (shoulder) was a limited practice participant Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
It's interesting to see Reed listed with only a shoulder injury considering he dealt with a Jones fracture in his foot earlier this season (in addition to a broken collarbone). In any case, he returned from an absence of nearly three months to handle a 48 percent offensive snap share and a 65 percent route share during Sunday's 28-21 win over the Bears. Reed finished with four catches for 31 yards and two carries for 22 yards, essentially returning to his full pre-injury role.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Week 15 Adds (WR Preview)
Rotowire
Reed was close to a full-time player in his first game back and scored 9.3 Fantasy points on four targets and two rush attempts. The Packers are behaving as if Reed is healthy, and he is the ultimate boom or bust WR3 when he's 100%. It will be a tough week for all the Packers wide receivers, but Reed has the potential for two or three gimmick plays per game, and he has been very good after the catch for most of his short career.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Gains 53 yards in return
Rotowire
Reed (foot/shoulder) had four receptions on as many targets for 31 yards while taking two carries for 22 yards in Sunday's 28-21 win over the Bears.
Reed made a successful return to action Sunday after a pair of early-season injuries that required surgery kept him sidelined since Week 2. The 25-year-old finished in a three-way tie for the team lead in targets, which bodes well for his usage moving forward. The versatile receiver logged his first carries of the season after posting a 31-282-3 rushing line across his rookie and sophomore campaigns. With a sizeable role and good health in tow, Reed should find himself back on the fantasy map for next Sunday's tilt against the Broncos.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Expected to make return Sunday
Rotowire
Reed (foot/shoulder), who is officially questionable for Sunday's Week 14 matchup against Chicago, is expected to play, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Reed's last game action came in Week 2, when he broke his collarbone on an attempted catch versus Washington. The third-year wideout was designated to return Friday, Nov. 21, but he wasn't activated from IR until Saturday. That move signaled that Reed is likely to take the field in Sunday's big NFC North clash against the Bears. It remains to be seen if Reed will be under any sort of snap limit following the extended absence, but if he does suit up he should be among the top three in the Packers' wideout pecking order along with Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Off injured reserve, still questionable
Rotowire
The Packers activated Reed (foot/shoulder) from injured reserve Saturday, but he remains questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears.
A shade more than two weeks removed from Green Bay designating Reed for return from injured reserve, he now officially has a chance for his first game action since Week 2, after which he underwent procedures to address a broken collarbone and a Jones fracture in his foot. Assuming he's active once the team posts its inactive list about 90 minutes before Sunday's 4:25 p.m. ET kickoff, he'll rejoin a receiving corps that includes Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Dontayvion Wicks and Bo Melton, while Matthew Golden (wrist) also is listed as questionable like Reed.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Stays limited at practice
Rotowire
Reed (foot/shoulder) was limited at Thursday's practice.
Reed is nearly two weeks into his 21-day practice window in which to be activated from injured reserve, but he's yet to log a full practice, which may be the final step he needs to take in order for the Packers to not only give him a game-day designation but also activate him. Friday's injury report will reveal if he has a chance for his first game action since Week 2, when he suffered a a broken collarbone that required surgeries for that and the Jones fracture that bothered him throughout training camp and the preseason.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Week 14 Waiver Priority List
Rotowire
Matt LaFleur said Monday that Reed (foot) has yet to be medically cleared to return, but that could happen prior to Week 14 against Chicago. When healthy, Reed could be a starter in all three-receiver leagues. The Packers have a crowded receiving corps with Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Matthew Golden and Dontayvion Wicks, but Reed should have a prominent role upon his return. In his lone healthy game in Week 1 against Detroit, Reed had three catches for 45 yards and a touchdown on five targets. He's worth adding in all leagues for 5 percent of your remaining FAB, and hopefully Reed will play against the Bears this week. Now, if Reed is out, you can take a flier on Wicks (3 percent) for 1 percent of your remaining FAB. Wicks just had six catches for 94 yards and two touchdowns on seven targets in Week 13 at Detroit, and he has at least seven targets in two of his past four games.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Ruled out for Week 13
Rotowire
Reed (foot), who remains on IR, was limited in practice Wednesday and has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Lions, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Reed has been listed as a limited participant on four consecutive injury reports since having his 21-day practice window opened, but he requires more time to ramp up his activity level. The third-year wideout's next chance to retake the field will come Sunday, Dec. 7 versus the Bears in Week 14, though he could have to resume practicing in full in order to actually be cleared to suit up. Matthew Golden (wrist) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against Detroit, while Dontayvion Wicks (calf) has been cleared to play.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Listed as limited again
Rotowire
Reed (foot/shoulder) is listed as a limited participant on Monday's estimated injury report, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Reed was limited in his return to practice last Friday, so while Green Bay isn't actually hosting an on-field session Monday, it's no surprise that the third-year pro isn't yet ready to handle reps without restrictions. It's possible Reed will need to log at least one full practice Tuesday and/or Wednesday in order to have a chance at coming off IR in time to suit up versus Detroit on Thanksgiving Day. In the event that Thursday's turnaround is too short a window for Reed, he should have a solid chance to return Week 14 against the Bears on Sunday, Dec. 7.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Not returning Sunday
Rotowire
Reed (foot/shoulder) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus the Vikings.
The Packers designated Reed for return from injured reserve Friday, and he proceeded to be limited at the ensuing practice. His last appearance occurred Week 2 when he broke his collarbone, which gave him a chance to not only get surgery to address that injury but also the foot issue that he dealt with in training camp. Reed told Mike Spofford of the team's official site after Friday's session that "it felt great just to go back out there with the guys and be able to fly around again. Everything feels great right now. I'm just following the protocol and just waiting for my number to be called. I don't know when I'll be back." Reed's next chance for game action is Thanksgiving Day at Detroit.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Not ready to practice yet
Rotowire
Packers coach Matt LaFleur said Wednesday that Reed (collarbone/foot) has not yet been cleared to have his practice window opened, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
LaFleur declined to offer a specific timetable for Reed's return, but he noted that the wideout is "excited to get back out there." Reed has been spotted ramping up his rehab on the side field as of late, per Demovsky, but it appears he could still be multiple weeks away from a return to the starting lineup. The third-year pro is working his way back from two surgeries undergone after Green Bay's win over the Commanders in Week 2, one to address a broken collarbone he sustained during that contest, and the other to repair a Jones fracture in his foot suffered during the offseason.

Packers' Jayden Reed: Making progress
Rotowire
Reed (collarbone, foot) remains on IR and has not yet had his 21-day practice window opened, but he spent time on the rehab field Wednesday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Reed was spotted running on a side field Wednesday as well as working with a trainer and getting in some catching reps with a JUGs machine, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports. The third-year wideout is recovering from a pair of surgeries, one to address a broken collarbone sustained Week 2 against the Commanders and the other to repair a Jones fracture in his foot he had been playing through. Reed is eligible to have his 21-day practice window opened at any time and is already within the early stages of his 6-to-8 week recovery timetable, but Packers coach Matt LaFleur hasn't yet offered a tangible update on the wideout's expected return date.
