Kalif Raymond Fantasy

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond caught all five of his targets for a total of 90 yards during Thursday's loss to the Green Bay Packers. This contest marked his biggest game of the season, as well as his first 90-yard outing since Week 18 of the 2021 campaign. Despite the sudden success, Raymond will likely remain low on the depth chart going forward, suggesting his fantasy relevance likely isn't here to stay. He can be dropped in most redraft leagues.

Detroit Lions wide receivers Kalif Raymond (ankle) and Donovan Peoples-Jones (ribs) practiced in full on Friday. Neither player carries an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears. Based on health alone, both players should suit up. However, it remains to be seen whether Peoples-Jones has shown the coaching staff enough to make him active for his Lions debut. He was acquired from the Browns last than three weeks ago and hasn't played in a game yet (due to the bye week and his injury). Nevertheless, both players can be avoided in fantasy football this week.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond (ankle) practiced in full on Thursday after being just limited in the first official practice of the week on Wednesday. Raymond is now on track to play in Week 11 against the Chicago Bears. Even in one of the better offenses in football while going up against one of the more generous defenses in the league in the Bears this weekend, the 29-year-old Raymond is a pretty low-upside flex option for those in deeper leagues. He's totaled 20 receptions on 27 targets for 277 yards and just one touchdown in nine games in 2023. Raymond has had exactly two receptions on four targets in each of the last two games and has topped 50 yards receiving in a game only once this year, back in Week 3.
