2025 Fantasy Outlook
Reed inked a three-year deal with the Lions in the offseason after spending the past three seasons with the Jets. The cornerback produced 64 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, while also adding 11 pass defenses over 14 regular-season games in 2024. Last season marked the first one since 2019 in which Reed did not secure at least one interception, as he recorded six total picks over the four previous years. Reed now will start opposite second-year pro Terrion Arnold in a Detroit secondary that will get plenty of action with the Lions potentially often playing with the lead. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a three-year, $48 million contract with the Lions in March of 2025.

2021
Reed has been remarkably consistent over the last three years, spanning his last season in Seattle and the first two seasons of his three-year contract with the Jets. The 27-year-old cornerback has posted 9-12 passes defensed and 76-80 tackles in each of those three seasons. Reed has developed into an excellent cover corner opposite Sauce Gardner, and their strong play on the outside coupled with Michael Carter's effectiveness in the slot has helped the Jets allow the fewest yards to wide receivers in each of the past two seasons.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could land on IR
Reed could require a stint on IR after suffering a hamstring injury in Sunday's win over the Browns, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
The Lions also saw Terrion Arnold leave the game with a shoulder issue, but his injury doesn't appear to be as serious. Reed signed a three-year deal with Detroit in March as a free agent and has had a solid start to the season, recording four pass breakups including an interception in four games. Veteran Rock Ya-Sin would likely be the next man up at boundary cornerback in Reed's absence.
