Week 11 of the 2025 NFL season rolls on and the action will continue tonight with a big NFC primetime showdown featuring the Detroit Lions visiting the Philadelphia Eagles at 8:15 p.m. ET on NBC.

The Lions pummeled the Commanders in a 44-22 blowout win last Sunday afternoon, maintaining their lead in a competitive NFC North race. Wide receiver Kalif Raymond got himself some touches in that road thrashing last week and we’ll see if he can do the same against the defending Super Bowl champions this evening.

Below, we’ll go over Raymond’s outlook in fantasy football for Week 11.

Fantasy Football analysis: Lions WR Kalif Raymond

Raymond poked his head in and had a nice showing against the Commanders last Sunday, catching all four of his targets for 49 yards while also adding a 10-yard run to his stat line. It was the most productive game the All-Pro punt returner has had on offense this year and he actually managed to get a handful of looks in an offense loaded with quality pass-catching options. We’ll find out soon enough if that was just a blip or a sign of things to come for the veteran down the stretch.

Start or sit in Week 11?

Sit. The Lions had the luxury of mixing in more pass-catching targets in last week’s blowouts and will most likely stick with their more established options in a high-stakes matchup like this one. For those who took a flier and picked up Raymond off the waiver wire this week, I’d advise to just leave him on the bench. A better streaming opportunity will come up down the road.
