Tyler Boyd
WR - Cincinnati Bengals
2024 Outlook
Veteran WR Tyler Boyd is gaining interest from the Pittsburgh Steelers and Kansas City Chiefs, with the New York Jets considered a dark horse candidate for the slot receiver.
Fantasy Impact
The Steelers, who just traded away Diontae Johnson, could be a good fit for Boyd, needing further depth and a new underneath route-running WR. The Chiefs are also interesting, as they need a savvy veteran and could give Boyd a role similar to that of JuJu Smith-Schuster in 2022's Super Bowl run. According to Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic, Jets players are pushing the front office to acquire Boyd, with New York being another team in need of WR depth behind WR Garrett Wilson.
The Bengals reportedly could let Tyler Boyd walk this offseason.
Fantasy Impact
Boyd is coming off arguably his worst season since his second year in the league back in 2017. He'll likely look to land a No. 3 wide receiver role with a new team in free agency.
Tyler Boyd caught one of his two targets for four yards in a 31-14 win over the Browns in Week 18.
Fantasy Impact
Boyd finishes his season on a quiet note as he was only targeted twice. Boyd wraps up the year with 67 catches for 667 yards and two touchdowns. Slated to become an unrestricted free agent this offseason, Boyd may have played the last game of his Bengals career on Sunday.
Tyler Boyd caught both of his targets for 29 yards in the Bengals' Week 17 25-17 loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.
Fantasy Impact
Boyd has struggled to find much space despite his consistent involvement in the Cincinnati passing offense, finishing with less than 60 receiving yards and failing to reach the end zone in each of the last five games for the Bengals. The pass-catcher will be a risky option for fantasy managers, with a Week 18 matchup against a strong Cleveland Browns defense up next.
Tyler Boyd caught five of his seven targets for 59 yards in a 34-11 loss to the Steelers in Week 16.
Fantasy Impact
Boyd wound up finishing second on the team in receiving yards in a game where Ja'Marr Chase (shoulder) did not suit up. Boyd has gotten to at least 53 receiving yards in two straight games after struggling in his previous four games. He will be a low-end flex option in Week 17 against the Chiefs.
