Kalif Raymond Fantasy Stats

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond had his best performance of the season in Week 16 against the Pittsburgh Steelers, recording four catches for 62 yards and a touchdown on five targets. Raymond could see an expanded role again in Week 17 against the Minnesota Vikings, as top Lions wideout Amon-Ra St. Brown (knee) is questionable to play due to a knee injury. However, if St. Brown is active, there's reason to believe Raymond's performance in Week 16 is unlikely to be repeated. Lions quarterback Jared Goff threw 54 passes against Pittsburgh, 17 more than he attempted in his first matchup of the season against the Vikings in Week 9. Additionally, Minnesota has been a very tough matchup for opposing passing attacks. The Vikings enter the week ranked second in the NFL in total passing yards allowed (2,790) and tied for second in passing touchdowns allowed (14). Raymond has some upside as a deep-league flex option for fantasy managers if St. Brown is sidelined. If St. Brown is active, fantasy managers should likely avoid Raymond in Week 17.

After missing two games with an ankle injury, Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond returned to the lineup in Week 15 against the Los Angeles Rams and recorded one catch for 20 yards on one target. Despite his return, the 31-year-old saw a significant drop in playing time. Raymond played just 11 offensive snaps in Week 15, his first time playing fewer than 27 snaps in a game he was active for since Week 6. The veteran may be seeing his playing time usurped by rookie Lions wideout Isaac TeSlaa, who hauled in touchdown grabs in both games that Raymond missed with the ankle issue. For the season, Raymond has recorded just 16 catches for 170 yards on 20 targets across 12 games. Even in a favorable matchup on paper against the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 16, he remains an unlikely candidate for production. Raymond should remain off the radar of fantasy managers in Week 16.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond (ankle) has missed each of his team's last two games after suffering an ankle injury in Week 12. However, the 31-year-old was able to log three limited practices this week and is officially listed as questionable to play in his team's Week 15 matchup against the Los Angeles Rams. Across 11 games this season, Raymond has hauled in 15 catches for 150 yards on 19 targets. Still, he's worked as Detroit's WR3 alongside Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams when healthy. In his absence, Lions rookie wideout Isaac TeSlaa has stepped up and recorded touchdowns in back-to-back weeks. TeSlaa's recent surge could mean fewer reps for Raymond, even if he's healthy enough to play. Raymond should remain off the radar of fantasy managers in Week 15.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond (ankle) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable to play in Week 15 against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. Raymond has missed the last two games after suffering an ankle injury in the Week 12 win over the New York Giants. If the 31-year-old veteran is able to play at SoFi Stadium, he'll merely be a depth option at the position for Detroit behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams. Rookie Isaac TeSlaa has seen more involvement in the Lions' offense with Raymond sidelined the last two weeks and will be an obstacle for Raymond if he returns, especially in the red zone. Raymond has not been worth rostering in most fantasy formats in 2025, as he comes into Week 15 with only 15 catches for 150 yards and no touchdowns on 19 targets in a Lions offense with lots of other mouths to feed.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond (ankle) has officially been ruled out for Thursday night's matchup versus the Dallas Cowboys. The 31-year-old hasn't practiced since suffering an ankle injury during Detroit's overtime win over the New York Giants in Week 12 and will miss his third consecutive game. The Lions have multiple injuries at wide receiver and tight end, with star wideout Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) questionable for Thursday, as well as tight ends Sam LaPorta (back) and Brock Wright (neck) facing extended absences. Rookie third-rounder Isaac TeSlaa is expected to see an increase in opportunities with Detroit's injuries piling up, and he's flashed upside in limited action, with three of his six receptions this season going for touchdowns.

Detroit Lions head coach Dan Campbell said that wide receiver Kalif Raymond (calf) is not expected to play on Thursday night against the Dallas Cowboys, according to Ben Raven of MLive.com. Raymond suffered an ankle injury during the Lions' Week 12 overtime win over the New York Giants and didn't suit up against the Green Bay Packers on Thanksgiving Day last Thursday. The 31-year-old wideout was a non-participant in Monday's practice session, and he's expected to miss his second consecutive game. Detroit is dealing with multiple injuries to its skill position group, with Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) also expected to miss time and tight end Sam LaPorta (back) on Injured Reserve. Rookie receiver Isaac TeSlaa should have more opportunities on Thursday night with Raymond and St. Brown sidelined, and he's made plays this season with three touchdowns on six receptions.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond (ankle) was a non-participant during Monday's practice session. Raymond suffered an ankle injury in the Week 12 win over the New York Giants and was unable to suit up for last week's contest versus the Green Bay Packers on Thanksgiving Day. The fact that Raymond remains out of practice to begin the week isn't a good sign ahead of the Thursday night contest versus the Dallas Cowboys. Rookie wideout Isaac TeSlaa stepped up during their Thanksgiving loss, hauling in both his targets for 35 yards and a touchdown. The 23-year-old figures to once again have a larger role in the offense if Raymond is unable to play in Week 14, especially with top wideout Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) also up in the air to play in Week 14.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond (ankle) has been ruled out ahead of the Week 13 matchup against the Green Bay Packers. Raymond made an early exit during Sunday's win over the New York Giants. Sadly, the 31-year-old won't have enough time to get ready before this Thanksgiving matchup. His absence should mean Isaac TeSlaa (hand) takes over as the No. 3 wideout, assuming he's cleared to play. Otherwise, Dominic Lovett might get a look. Neither are viable fantasy options heading into this game.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond (ankle) missed his second practice of the week on Tuesday due to an ankle injury, according to Eric Woodyard of ESPN. It's looking like Raymond won't be able to play on Thanksgiving Day on Thursday when the division-rival Green Bay Packers come to town after he hurt his ankle in Sunday's overtime victory over the New York Giants. If he is unable to practice on Wednesday, Raymond will almost certainly be ruled out for Week 13, which would open up more snaps for rookie third-rounder Isaac TeSlaa. The 31-year-old Raymond has had a limited role in Detroit's offense in his fifth year with the team, catching only 15 of 19 targets for 150 yards and no touchdowns in 11 games played. He caught both of his targets in Week 12 for 37 yards, his second-best yardage output of the year.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Kalif Raymond (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's Week 12 contest against the New York Giants. Raymond initially exited in the third quarter and was listed as questionable before being downgraded to out. At the time of his departure, he had caught each of his two targets for a total of 37 receiving yards. He also broke off a 44-yard kick return. Isaac TeSlaa will likely step up as the Lions' No. 3 receiver behind Amon-Ra St. Brown and Jameson Williams. The Lions return to action against the Green Bay Packers on Thanksgiving, so Raymond will have just four days to get healthy before his next game.
