Jayden Reed Week 17 Outlook - Packers at Vikings

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Sat, Dec 28th 2024, 9:05am EST

Reed is the WR35 in fantasy points per game. He has seen seven red zone targets in his last six games, but in that span, he has surpassed 40 receiving yards in a game only once. The entire receiving depth chart has been hurt over the last few weeks, with Green Bay leaning on the run so diligently. The last time Reed faced Minnesota, he was the WR2 for the week, rolling up seven receptions and 139 receiving yards (one touchdown). Reed could have another banner day in Week 17. Minnesota has the highest two high rate in the NFL (65.3%). Since Week 8, against two high, Reed has ranked second on the team with a 25% TPRR and 23.2% first-read share while only managing 1.43 YPRR. The efficiency could be aided this week against a secondary that, since Week 11, has allowed the ninth-most fantasy points per game and the seventh-most receiving yards per game to slot receivers.
