Jayden Reed caught 4-of-6 targets for 138 yards and a touchdown in the Packers’ Week 1 loss to the Eagles, adding one carry for 33 yards and a touchdown.

Reed didn’t even take the first snap of the game as the Packers opened with a 12-personnel look, leaving the slot receiver on the bench. That quickly proved to be a suboptimal game-plan as Reed sliced through the Philadelphia defense on a jet sweep for a 33-yard score early in the second quarter. Reed scored his second touchdown on a long strike from Jordan Love. He juked C.J. Gardner-Johnson out of his cleats for good measure before galloping into the end zone. Reed also had a 38-yard touchdown early in the game called back by offsetting penalties. It’s hard to imagine the Packers taking Reed off the field much going forward given how explosive he is with the ball in his hands. Reed will lead the way among the Packers receivers for fantasy purposes as they eye up the Colts for Week 2.
