Tom Kennedy Fantasy

Detroit Lions wide receivers Kalif Raymond and Tom Kennedy could be significant pieces of the offense if Josh Reynolds (ankle) and Amon-Ra St. Brown (ankle) are ruled out before the game against the New England Patriots. Raymond and Kennedy combined for six receptions for 92 yards against the Seattle Seahawks in the absence of D.J. Chark and St. Brown. This week, the Lions' top four wide receivers could be out (St. Brown, Chark, Reynolds, Quintez Cephus), meaning they would be the top two options at the position. Tight end T.J. Hockenson would likely be the target hog in that case, but Raymond and Kennedy would be viable flex options in deep leagues.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Tom Kennedy has been cut by the organization on Monday. This doesn't come as a surprise considering Kennedy had an uphill battle to begin the preseason. Despite that, Kennedy played well, hauling in 16 receptions for 143 yards and a couple of touchdowns. That still wasn't enough for the Lions to keep Kennedy on their roster. Possibly, he returns on the practice squad and catches on elsewhere. He doesn't have great upside, but has done enough to earn himself a spot on an NFL roster. Fantasy managers can continue to avoid him.

Detroit Lions wide receiver Tom Kennedy led the team with 12 targets, eight catches, and 104 receiving yards during Friday's preseason opener against the Atlanta Falcons. He saw targets in the second, third, and fourth quarters. Kennedy bounced around the Lions' organization in 2019 and 2021, catching six passes for 54 yards last season. He also returned four kicks. Heading into 2022, Kennedy hopes to see increased opportunities, but he faces an uphill battle considering the depth in Detroit's receiver room.
