Greg Ward Fantasy

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Greg Ward is the top option for the slot receiving role in 2020, in the opinion of NFL.com's Gregg Rosenthal. However, the team is suddenly super deep at the position after they drafted Jalen Reagor and John Hightower and traded for Marquise Goodwin. Plus, general manager Howie Roseman would love to see J.J. Arcega-Whiteside, a second-rounder last year, make an impact after struggling in his rookie season. Philly also has Alshon Jeffery and deep-threat DeSean Jackson trying for bounce-back seasons after injury-plagued ones in 2019. Ward could carve out a nice slot role in this improved offense, but he's unlikely to see a big enough target share to carve out a fantasy relevant role in most standard-sized leagues.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Greg Ward caught three passes on Sunday, gaining 24 yards. He also ran the ball once for a three yard gain. Ward was actually the backup quarterback for most of this game, as Carson Wentz was forced to leave with a head injury and Nate Sudfeld was inactive. Ward showed some flashes after being thrust into a much larger role than expected at the end of the season, but he'll likely be far down on the depth chart to open next season.

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver Greg Ward is expected to be the top wide receiver for quarterback Carson Wentz once again on Wild Card Weekend. Nelson Agholor (knee) is not expected to play again this season, and every other Eagles wide receiver is already on injured reserve. While Ward will be atop the wide receiver depth chart, tight ends Zach Ertz (ribs, kidney), Dallas Goedert, and even Josh Perkins will be ahead of Ward on the pecking order for pass plays. Ward is a decent dart throw DFS play because of touchdown upside, but he's not a particularly safe play in most formats.
