Washington tight end Jordan Reed (concussion) is officially active for the team's Week 7 match up against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Reed was limited in practice Wednesday through Friday but is ready to go after clearing concussion protocol.
Jordan Reed injury update: Washington TE is active for fantasy owners
Jordan Reed will suit up for Week 7. We break down the fantasy implications.
Fantasy impact: With Reed back in the line up, he projects as a target monster with wide receiver DeSean Jackson set to miss another week due to his hamstring. Reed has been extremely effective when on the field this season, averaging 6 receptions for 69.5 yards on 8.5 targets per game. Staying on the field has always been Reed's main issue. He's missed a total of 14 games over the last three seasons. He'll look to rebound from his last and only disappointing game of the season from Week 4 where he finished with five receptions for 37 yards and a lost fumble. He'll have a tough match up ahead of him in Tampa Bay. Their defense gives up the fifth-fewest fantasy points to opposing tight ends. Reed is locked in as a mid-range TE1.
