Craig Reynolds News

Lions
Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds (leg) is expected to be available for the regular season opener, according to head coach Dan Campbell. Reynolds suffered a leg injury during Thursday's practice. It's not believed to be serious, but Reynolds was held out of the preseason finale for precautionary reasons. He's currently competing with Sione Vaki for the No. 3 role in Detroit. Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery are the two primary options in this backfield. It's unlikely that Reynolds or Vaki have a significant role in the backfield while Gibbs and Montgomery are healthy. Whether he's healthy or not, Reynolds can probably be avoided in most fantasy formats.

Craig Reynolds Avoids Serious Injury
Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds (leg), who left the team's final day of training camp early Wednesday, appears to have avoided a serious injury. The exact nature of the ailment sustained by Reynolds is unclear, though two defenders apparently sandwiched him on a run in the red zone at about the mid-point of practice. It appears he'll be OK and looks to return to the field quickly. Reynolds is currently entrenched in a battle with rookie Sione Vaki for Detroit's RB3 role, and any time away from the field is less time fending off the rookie from supplanting him. Whichever back wins the positional battle would not hold standalone fantasy value, but rather be a potential handcuff option in deep leagues and best-ball formats. This version of the Lions' offense has shown us a propensity to value the use of a dual-RB system, and Jahmyr Gibbs (hamstring) is improving but not fully healthy with the season just two weeks away. Reynolds is Yahoo's RB100 off the boards in drafts currently.

Craig Reynolds Turns 15 Touches Into 86 Yards
Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds rushed 14 times for 74 yards and caught his only targets for 12 yards in the Week 8 win over the Las Vegas Raiders. Reynolds has found extra work in the absence of David Montgomery (ribs), but that could be coming to an end after the team's Week 9 bye. Assuming Montgomery can return in Week 10 against the Los Angeles Chargers, Reynolds will be safe to drop to the waiver wire moving forward. In super deep leagues, Reynolds can continue to be stashed.

Craig Reynolds Officially Active For Lions
Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds (hamstring, toe) is officially active for Week 7 against the Baltimore Ravens after coming into the game listed as questionable. Reynolds was expected to play all along, but it's now official that he'll play. With David Montgomery (ribs) out, Reynolds should have a bigger complementary role alongside Jahmyr Gibbs (hamstring), who is returning after missing the last two games. The 27-year-old isn't as interesting in fantasy with Gibbs likely to lead Detroit's backfield, but he's at least worth considering as a flex option in deeper leagues, albeit in a tough matchup against the Ravens defense on the road. Reynolds' role could also depend heavily on whether the Lions are ahead late in this game.

Craig Reynolds Expected To Play In Week 7
Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds (hamstring, toe) is expected to play against the Ravens. David Montgomery (ribs) was ruled out days ago, so there were concerns about rookie Jahmyr Gibbs' workload, considering he missed the last two games with a hamstring injury. While Gibbs is anticipated to remain the top option out of the backfield in Week 7, Reynolds' potential availability on Sunday makes him a flex option, at the very least, in all formats.

Craig Reynolds Listed As Questionable
Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds (hamstring/toe) has been tagged as questionable heading into their Week 7 matchup against the Baltimore Ravens. The good news for the Lions is that Jahmyr Gibbs is good to go, but David Montgomery (ribs) remains sidelined. If Reynolds can't suit up, then rookie Devine Ozigbo may get a chance. As of right now, Gibbs is the main back to roster and start on this offense while the rest of them are huge question marks heading into a tough matchup against a solid Ravens defense. Fantasy managers desperate for Reynolds to play will want to stay tuned for more news leading up to kickoff.

Craig Reynolds Practicing On Thursday
Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds (hamstring, toe) returned to practice on Thursday after sitting out the previous day. The fourth-year veteran saw his workload increase dramatically in Week 6 as rookie Jahmyr Gibbs (hamstring) was held out and David Montgomery (ribs) left the game early due to injury. Reynolds finished the game with a 61% snap share though it did not translate to fantasy success. With Reynolds now hindered by his own injuries, it will likely be Gibbs taking over as the Lions' lead back in Week 7. Rookie Devine Ozigbo, who reverted to the practice squad on Monday, could be back to add depth on Sunday and take on the backup roll if Reynolds suffers any setbacks.

David Montgomery, Craig Reynolds Not Practicing
Detroit Lions running backs David Montgomery (ribs) and Craig Reynolds (hamstring, toe) were both missing from practice on Wednesday. Montgomery is expected to miss time after getting hurt in the Week 6 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, so his DNP isn't much of a surprise, but Reynolds' injuries makes Detroit's backfield even more beat up heading into Week 7 against the Baltimore Ravens. Meanwhile, rookie Jahmyr Gibbs (hamstring) is trending in the right direction to return after missing the last two games. Even if Reynolds makes progress and is able to play this weekend, Gibbs would most likely be in a feature-back role on Sunday, which would give him clear volume-based RB2 upside in a strong Lions offense. Fantasy managers need to move Monty to their benches, at least for Week 7.

Craig Reynolds Posts 43 Yards On 12 Touches
Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds came in for an injured David Montgomery (ribs) and rushed 10 times for 15 yards. He also caught two passes for 28 yards in the Week 6 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. It was far from an impressive performance, but if Montgomery has to miss time, Reynolds could be worth picking up off the waiver wire ahead of Week 7. However, if Jahmyr Gibbs (hamstring) returns from his injury that has kept him out of the last two games, Reynolds could have a very limited role. This is a situation worth monitoring ahead of mid-week waiver wire claims.

Craig Reynolds Scores, Makes Strong Case For Detroit's RB3
Detroit Lions running back Craig Reynolds played most of the first half in Friday's 26-17 win over Carolina, taking 11 carries for 41 yards and a touchdown and catching his lone target for a five-yard gain. Reynolds played the vast majority of snaps with Teddy Bridgewater and the second-string offense. Since top backs Jahmyr Gibbs and David Montgomery were rested, it's hard to imagine Reynolds getting much work as the No. 3 RB if both guys ahead of him remain healthy for Week 1 at Kansas City. At this point, he's best left on the waiver wire in most fantasy leagues.
