Kalif Raymond Fantasy Stats

Through seven games so far in 2025, Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond has hauled in nine catches for 64 yards on 12 targets. The 31-year-old recorded a season-high three catches in Detroit's final game before its Week 8 bye, but has yet to crack 20 receiving yards in a game this season. Raymond still profiles as the Lions' WR3 ahead of rookie wideout Isaac TeSlaa, as Raymond out-snapped TeSlaa 30 to nine in Week 7. However, that role has not led to consistent fantasy production, which appears unlikely to change in the second half of the season. Detroit has a tough matchup in Week 9 against the Minnesota Vikings. Through eight weeks, Minnesota has allowed the fourth-fewest passing yards (1,428) in the NFL. Raymond should remain off the radar of fantasy managers heading into Week 9.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond (personal) missed his team's Saturday practice for personal reasons, but he will not carry any designation into Detroit's Week 7 matchup against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers on Monday night. Raymond has seen his role in the team's offense shrink over the past two weeks. He suffered a neck injury that forced him to exit Detroit's Week 5 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals early. However, he was able to suit up in Week 6 against the Kansas City Chiefs and played just two offensive snaps. Even in what profiles as a high-scoring matchup against the Buccaneers, Raymond appears unlikely to see many opportunities in the passing game. He should remain off the radar of fantasy managers in Week 7.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond (neck) is officially active for Sunday's Week 6 contest against the Kansas City Chiefs. He was listed as questionable after logging back-to-back limited practices. Raymond had been a productive special teamer through the first four weeks of the season and also caught at least one pass in each of those games. However, he exited early in Week 5, finishing with a three percent snap share and zero receptions. He'll look to return to his Week 4 form, which included two catches, 13 receiving yards, and a special teams touchdown. For now, given his role behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams in a crowded offense, Raymond can be left on waivers.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond (neck) exited during the first half of Sunday's Week 5 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. Although he was initially listed as questionable to return, he has since been downgraded to out. Raymond finishes the game with a kick return and a punt return, but no offensive targets. Grant Stuard and Jacob Saylors should handle return duties for the duration of his absence.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond (neck) exited during the first half of Sunday's Week 5 contest against the Cincinnati Bengals. He is officially questionable to return. At the time of his departure, he had two special teams returns but had not been targeted on offense. Grant Stuard and Jacob Saylors should handle return duties for the duration of Raymond's absence.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond made his biggest play of the season on special teams in Week 4, returning a punt 65 yards for a touchdown against the Cleveland Browns. Raymond's work as a receiver has been much more subdued, as he has recorded just six catches for 47 yards on nine targets through four games. The Lions' passing game has a favorable matchup on paper in Week 5 against the Cincinnati Bengals, but Raymond is likely to remain in a limited role on offense. The 31-year-old is buried on the pecking order for targets in Detroit behind wide receivers Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams, tight end Sam LaPorta, and running back Jahmyr Gibbs. Raymond should remain off the radar of fantasy managers in Week 5.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond has recorded four catches for 34 yards on six targets through his first three games of 2025. The 31-year-old does most of his damage at this point in his career on special teams, where he is Detroit's primary punt returner. Raymond has played at least 49% of Detroit's offensive snaps in each of the team's three games so far, but he's buried on the target pecking order behind wide receivers Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams, tight end Sam LaPorta, and running back Jahmyr Gibbs. Raymond should remain off the radar of fantasy managers heading into a tough matchup in Week 4 against the Cleveland Browns.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond has recorded three catches for 30 yards on four targets through his first two games of 2025. Raymond has been the team's primary WR3 alongside Amon Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams, but he could eventually fall behind rookie wideout Isaac TeSlaa. After playing 44 snaps in Week 1, Raymond played 32 snaps in Week 2. In contrast, TeSlaa's snap count went up by 14 plays from Week 1 to Week 2. The veteran Raymond will likely still see the field a decent amount in Week 3 against the Baltimore Ravens, but he should remain off the radar of fantasy managers.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond played ahead of rookie wideout Isaac TeSlaa in Week 1, recording two catches for 16 yards on three targets against the Green Bay Packers. That may not be the case in Week 2 against the Chicago Bears after TeSlaa's highlight-reel touchdown grab against Green Bay. Raymond has worked in a gadget/downfield role for the Lions over the past couple of seasons, which may not be as effective under new Detroit play-caller John Morton as it was under former offensive coordinator and current Bears head coach Ben Johnson. Raymond is an explosive player with the ball in his hands due to his speed, but he's not a fantasy-viable wide receiver unless the Lions suffer multiple injuries at the position.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond is entering his fifth season in Detroit and appears to be the team's WR4 behind Amon-Ra St. Brown, Jameson Williams, and Isaac TeSlaa. Still, the 31-year-old brings a vertical element to the offense with his speed and has consistently found the field in his time in Detroit, albeit in a limited capacity. In eight career games against the Packers, Raymond has recorded 20 catches for 302 yards and a touchdown. He may eat into the Week 1 snap share of TeSlaa, who is playing on Sunday, but was limited in practice early in the week with an illness. Raymond should not be on the radar of fantasy managers, but he should be expected to see some work in Week 1 against Green Bay.
