Scouting report

WAS TE Jordan Reed - Week 2 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 2 vs. Indianapolis Colts

In Las Vegas this week, only the Steelers, Saints and Rams have a higher implied team total than the Redskins, illustrating confidence in this offense against a poor Colts defense (25th in aFPA to TEs last year). The Colts allowed two receiving touchdowns last week. A healthy Jordan Reed makes it hard to ever sit him. Last week was a great example, as he caught four of his five targets and lunged to the pylon for a score. Only 13 of Alex Smith's 29 passes went to receivers last week, and given his history with Travis Kelce, he should continue to look for Reed. Every Washington receiver averaged less than six targets per game in weeks Jordan Reed played a full game last year. The ball is coming 86's way. He's a top-five TE when healthy. Reed is healthy in Week 2.

WAS TE Jordan Reed - Week 1 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 1 at Arizona Cardinals

Alex Smith knows how to target a talented tight end. Ask Travis Kelce. And when Jordan Reed is healthy, you play him. It's that simple. He's posted elite tight end fantasy numbers in the past and is not on the injury report this week. Consider him a top-five option this week, as Washington likely looks to stay away from shutdown corner Patrick Peterson.

WAS TE Jordan Reed - 2018 Fantasy Football Outlook

Fantasy Upside

When Jordan Reed is on the field, he dominates. In the last three seasons, working backwards, this is where he's ranked in PPR leagues among TEs in fantasy points per game: eighth, first, and first.

Fantasy Downside

Reed is as injury-prone as it gets. He has not played 16 games in a season, with several injuries last year and toe surgery in the offseason. Last season, he missed a whopping 10 games.

2018 Bottom Line

Jordan Reed is the biggest high-risk/high-reward TE pick you can make. The good news is he has TE1 overall upside and a handcuff in Vernon Davis who costs nothing. Pairing the two in best-ball leagues and snagging Davis off waivers if Reed gets hurt is a sharp strategy.

WAS TE Jordan Reed - Week 14 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 14 at Los Angeles Chargers

Jordan Reed is still out for Week 14. Make sure you are not starting him in the fantasy playoffs.

WAS TE Jordan Reed - Week 11 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 11 at New Orleans Saints

Jordan Reed (hamstring) suffered a setback last week. It does not look promising that he will play Sunday. Prepare accordingly with other TE options.

WAS TE Jordan Reed - Week 10 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 10 vs. Minnesota Vikings

Jordan Reed is moving in the wrong direction on the injury report this week, practicing on a limited basis early in the week then not at all Friday. Prepare for him to be out in Week 10 or extremely limited.

WAS TE Jordan Reed - Week 8 Fantasy Football Outlook

Week 8 vs. Dallas Cowboys

Welcome back, Jordan Reed. Two touchdowns last week, showing off his weekly ceiling. This week against the Cowboys, he'll once again be one of Kirk Cousins' primary targets in a game with the highest over/under in Vegas for Week 8. The Cowboys are just about average in our aFPA vs. TE rankings, too. Therefore, start Reed with confidence.
