2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Packers drafted Reed 50th overall this spring after a college career that saw him go for 797 yards as a freshman at Western Michigan and 2,069 yards the following three seasons at Michigan State. He had his best year as a junior with 1,026 yards and 10 TDs, then dropped to 636 yards and five TDs last season while battling foot, hip and back injuries. Reed has a chance at a key role early in his career, joining the youngest WR room in the league with his main competition for playing time being second-year pros Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs. The Packers also have 2023 fifth-rounder Dontayvion Wicks and 2022 seventh-rounder Samori Toure, while the roster doesn't have any older players with NFL starting experience to help new QB Jordan Love.

Four catches in divisional round
WRGreen Bay Packers
January 20, 2024
Reed recorded four receptions on four targets for 35 yards in Saturday's 24-21 loss to the 49ers. He added one rush for nine yards.
ANALYSIS
The Packers had all of their top pass-catching options available, so targets were spread widely. That limited Reed's volume, and he was also primarily limited to opportunity in the short areas of the field, with the exception being a 29-yard catch deep down the right sideline early in the second quarter. After ending the regular season as the team's most productive pass catcher, Reed was overshadowed by Romeo Doubs in the postseason and was shut out from the stat sheet in the wild-card round. Nevertheless, it was a promising rookie season for Reed overall -- he found the end zone 10 times in 16 regular-season games -- but target volume will remain an issue in 2024 due to the number of young receivers on the roster.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could be top healthy WR in Week 1
WRGreen Bay Packers
September 7, 2023
Reed could be in line for a prominent role in his NFL debut against the Bears on Sunday, as Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports that fellow wide receivers Christian Watson and Romeo Doubs are both battling hamstring injuries.
ANALYSIS
Doubs practiced Thursday for the first time since Green Bay's preseason finale, while Watson was absent for the second consecutive practice, putting the latter's status against Chicago in doubt. With little in the way of healthy receiving talent ahead of him, Reed, whom the Packers selected in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft, should see significant playing time in Week 1.
