FanDuel Salary Changes: Week 8

Jordan Reed, TE, Washington Redskins

FanDuel Price: $6,800
Salary Change: Down $500

Jordan Reed has missed the last two weeks with a concussion and early reports last week had him doubtful for Week 9. With a London game this week, then a bye in Week 10, it would have been easy for Washington to hold him out until after the bye week to give him an extra two weeks to get back to full health.

With a long flight ahead, plus the scary story of Reed not reporting his concussion symptoms in his last game, the team is going to be extra cautious with him. But with his recent clearance and practice participation on Friday, you shouldn’t have any issues rostering him as the medical staff clearly has confidence in his recovery.

Before his injury, he saw at least seven targets in each game, including three games with 10 or more. He’s the focal point of offense, but he will be under-owned in Week 8 with the recency bias of his absence and Jimmy Graham being $100 cheaper on FanDuel against the Saints.

I'd play the 9:30 A.M. slate on Sunday just so you can put Reed in some of your GPP lineups.
