Denver Broncos wide receiver Josh Reynolds could find himself in a substantial role in the Broncos' offense in his first year with the team after signing a two-year, $9 million deal in March. Reynolds comes from Detroit, where head coach Dan Campbell previously worked under current Broncos head coach Sean Payton in New Orleans. Payton is seeking more production all across the offense in 2024 and is embracing the idea that it could come from anywhere. "He's long; he has strong hands. Another veteran receiver," Payton said of Reynolds. Courtland Sutton is the unquestioned top wideout in Denver, but Reynolds will be competing for a starting role with the rehabbing Tim Patrick, Marvin Mims Jr. and rookie fourth-rounder Troy Franklin. With questions at QB, though, Reynolds will most likely go undrafted in standard 12-team fantasy leagues this fall.
Former Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds signed a two-year deal worth up to $14 million with the Denver Broncos on Wednesday, according to a source. The Broncos have been one of the most quiet teams in free agency this year, with Reynolds being their biggest addition by far. The 29-year-old will help replace Jerry Jeudy, who was traded to the Cleveland Browns. Reynolds caught 40 of his 64 targets last year in Detroit for 608 yards and five touchdowns in 17 regular-season games. Courtland Sutton will remain Denver's unquestioned No. 1 wideout, but Reynolds has a chance to be their No. 2 if he can beat out Tim Patrick (Achilles) and Marvin Mims Jr. in training camp. With either quarterback Jarrett Stidham or a rookie running the Broncos' offense in 2024, there won't be much fantasy upside for Reynolds in his new home.
Free-agent wide receiver Josh Reynolds is visiting with the Baltimore Ravens on Friday, according to ESPN's Adam Schefter. The 29-year-old had one of the best seasons of his career last year with the Detroit Lions, racking up 40 receptions for 608 yards and five touchdowns. Reynolds was originally a fourth-round pick by the Los Angeles Rams in 2017, and outside of five games with the Tennessee Titans in 2021, he has spent his entire career with quarterback Jared Goff. Overall, the Texas A&M product has 220 receptions for 2,933 yards and 19 touchdowns through his first 107 NFL games. The Ravens are looking to upgrade from what Odell Beckham Jr. and Rashod Bateman gave them at wideout last year, so Reynolds makes sense as a potential WR2 or WR3 for Lamar Jackson.
Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds caught just one of his four targets for 25 yards in Sunday's loss to the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship Game. The 28-year-old had a crucial drop of fourth down after quarterback Jared Goff evaded the rush of Nick Bosa, and he failed to secure a third-down reception later in the game. Ultimately, it was an unfortunate time for Reynolds to struggle, as converting either of those opportunities into first downs could've meant the difference between winning and losing. Reynolds' 2024 fantasy football outlook is dependent on what Detroit does at the wide receiver spot this offseason.
Josh Reynolds A Bargain DFS Option Against San Francisco
Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds (ribs) was removed from the injury report on Friday, meaning he's good to go for the NFC Championship Game against the San Francisco 49ers. Reynolds was a limited participant during Wednesday and Thursday's practice with a rib injury, but it turned out to be minor. The 28-year-old has been a key contributor so far in the postseason, catching seven of his 10 targets for 107 yards and a touchdown. Kalif Raymond (knee) will not play on Sunday, so Reynolds should continue to be heavily involved in the matchup with the 49ers, who have been a neutral defense against fantasy wide receivers to this point.
Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds (ribs) was a limited participant on Wednesday's estimated practice report, and he remained limited during the team's Thursday practice. The 28-year-old was not knocked out of last week's game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, so he's likely dealing with soreness or a minor ding-up. Reynolds has saved his best performances for the postseason, snagging seven passes for 107 yards and a touchdown in the team's Wild Card and Divisional Round wins. Kalif Raymond (knee) remains out of practice, so Reynolds should remain the clear No. 2 wide receiver behind Amon-Ra St. Brown for Sunday's NFC Championship Game.
Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds (ribs) is on the injury report this week and was listed as limited in the team's practice on Wednesday. Reynolds' injury probably isn't serious, but it's something worth watching, especially since Kalif Raymond (knee) is trending toward missing a third straight game after injuring his knee in the Week 18 regular season finale. The 28-year-old Reynolds has been serving as the No. 2 wideout behind Amon-Ra St. Brown. Reynolds hasn't missed a game this year and should play on Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship. He's mostly given fantasy managers some very modest numbers, but he did find his way into the end zone for the sixth time this season in the Divisional Round win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Reynolds will be a cheap DFS flier this weekend with a low ceiling and floor against a tough Niners defense.
Josh Reynolds Finds End Zone In NFC Divisional Win
Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds caught two of his three targets for 27 yards and a touchdown in the 31-23 win over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Sunday. Detroit is now headed to the NFC Championship Game to face the San Francisco 49ers, who were a neutral matchup for wide receivers during the regular season. Jared Goff's second-favorite wide receiver target has been Reynolds this year, so he remains a budget-friendly DFS option In two-game and single-game contests. He should not be expected to outproduce Amon-Ra St. Brown or Sam LaPorta, but Goff trusts him in critical moments.
Josh Reynolds A Bargain DFS Option Against Tampa Bay
Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds was the team's second-most productive during the regular season, and the trend continued in the win over the Los Angeles Rams in the first round of the NFC playoffs. Reynolds hauled in five passes for 80 yards to help defeat his former team. This week, he has plenty of upside against a Tampa Bay defense that surrendered the 10th-most fantasy points per game to wideouts during the regular season. At his $3,700 price tag in full-slate DraftKings tournaments, he's an interesting budget-friendly wide receiver or flex option. Although he hasn't been a consistent producer, quarterback Jared Goff trusts him, and he's a threat to find the end zone on Sunday.
Josh Reynolds Matches Season-High In Receiving Against Rams
Detroit Lions wide receiver Josh Reynolds caught five of his seven targets for 80 yards in the Wild Card victory over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. Like quarterback Jared Goff, Reynolds began his career with L.A., and he produced a big-time performance in an effort to eliminate them from the playoffs. With Sam LaPorta (knee) banged up, the 28-year-old stepped up and helped Detroit win its first playoff game since 1992. Next week, Reynolds will face the Philadelphia Eagles or Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Both squads allowed at least the tenth-most fantasy points per game to wideouts during the regular season, so he'll remain a budget-friendly DFS option in the NFC Divisional Round.
