Reynolds secured all three targets for 25 yards in the Jets' 13-11 loss to the Broncos in London on Sunday.
The veteran wideout accounted for more than half of Justin Fields' paltry 45 passing yards on the day while tying for the team lead in receptions and setting the pace in targets. Reynolds now has back-to-back three-catch efforts following a two-game absence due to a hamstring injury and a Week 4 blanking in his return, but until the Jets are able to put together a semblance of a consistent passing attack, his fantasy outlook will remain relatively bleak.

Jets' Josh Reynolds: Three grabs in Sunday's loss
Rotowire
Reynolds caught three of four targets for 29 yards in Sunday's 37-22 loss to the Cowboys. He also caught a two-point conversion.
While his numbers were modest, Reynolds was the only New York wideout aside from Garrett Wilson (6-71-1 on 10 targets) to catch more than one pass or see more than two targets on the afternoon. The 30-year-old journeyman is on his sixth team in the last six seasons, but there could be an opportunity with the Jets to carve out a consistent role, as the team lacks downfield threats aside from Wilson and rookie tight end Mason Taylor. Reynolds will look to build on this performance in Week 6 against the Broncos.

Jets' Josh Reynolds: Returns to two targets Monday
Rotowire
Reynolds (hamstring) had no receptions (on two targets) in Monday's 27-21 loss to the Dolphins.
Reynolds returned from a hamstring injury that he suffered back in Week 1. The veteran wideout resumed his unappealing role as the Jets' No. 2 receiver behind Garrett Wilson (6-82-1), but he still finished in a tie for fourth in targets while failing to record a reception. While Reynolds technically is a starter for the Jets, he's not involved enough offensively to generate fantasy appeal even in a soft matchup against the Cowboys on Sunday.

Jets' Josh Reynolds: Returns to full practice
Rotowire
Reynolds (hamstring) practiced fully Friday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Reynolds thus is on pace to return from a two-game absence when the Jets face the Dolphins on Monday. The veteran pass catcher logged a 97 percent snap share and two catches (on three targets) for 18 yards Week 1, but in his looming return he'll need to compete with Tyler Johnson, Arian Smith and Allen Lazard for WR targets that don't go to clear-cut top option Garrett Wilson.

Jets' Josh Reynolds: On track to practice Thursday
Rotowire
Reynolds (hamstring) is in line to practice Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
After logging a 97 percent snap share and two catches on three targets for 18 yards in Week 1, Reynolds missed the Jets' last two games. The wideout's looming return to practice suggests that he could be available Monday night against the Dolphins, but thus far this season Garrett Wilson has been the team's only WR of note from a fantasy perspective.

Jets' Josh Reynolds: Sidelined again Thursday
Rotowire
Reynolds (hamstring) did not practice Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Reynolds has now missed back-to-back practices due to the hamstring injury that forced him to sit out the Jets' loss to the Bills in Week 2. Unless he's able to retake the practice field Friday, Reynolds looks on track to miss Sunday's road game against the Buccaneers.

Jets' Josh Reynolds: Still not practicing
Rotowire
Reynolds (hamstring) did not practice Wednesday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
Reynolds hasn't practiced since last Thursday, putting him potentially at risk of missing a second consecutive game and being forced to sit out Sunday's contest against the Buccaneers, in which Tyrod Taylor is slated to start in place of an injured Justin Fields (concussion). When healthy Week 1, Reynolds secured two of three targets for 18 yards while playing 97 percent of New York's offensive snaps.

Jets' Josh Reynolds: DNP due to hamstring Thursday
Rotowire
Reynolds (hamstring) didn't practice Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.
This is a new injury for Reynolds, who played 97 percent of snaps on offense in Week 1 against the Steelers and wasn't on Wednesday's injury report. If Reynolds is unable to play Sunday against the Steelers, that could pave the way for Allen Lazard to make his season debut.

Jets' Josh Reynolds: Two catches in Jets debut
Rotowire
Reynolds caught two of three targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 34-32 loss to the Steelers.
Reynolds was one of three Jets wide receivers to register a catch, along with Garrett Wilson (seven catches for 95 yards) and Tyler Johnson (two catches for 31 yards). Reynolds is the nominal No. 2 wide receiver in New York, but the Jets are unlikely to get much production from the position besides Wilson.

Jets' Josh Reynolds: Clear favorite for No. 2 WR role
Rotowire
Reynolds is "the clear-cut leader" to be the Jets' No. 2 wide receiver, according to Mike Reiss of ESPN.com.
Reports from June minicamp marked Reynolds as the early leader, ahead of Allen Lazard, Arian Smith, Malachi Corley and others. Reynolds apparently has reinforced that notion in the early days of training camp, regularly making plays with the first-team offense. He's 30 years old and has never topped 618 receiving yards in a season, but Reynolds does have 55 NFL starts to his name.

Jets' Josh Reynolds: Early lead for No. 2 role
Rotowire
Reynolds showcased impressive chemistry with quarterback Justin Fields at mandatory minicamp and is the early favorite to secure the No. 2 receiver role behind Garrett Wilson, Zack Rosenblatt of The Athletic reports.
Reynolds' early rapport with Fields and willingness to contribute as a blocker in the run game have made a good impression on head coach Aaron Glenn and offensive coordinator Tanner Engstrand, currently giving him an advantage over Allen Lazard for the top receiver gig behind Wilson. Of course, Glenn and Engstrand seem likely to import something similar to the run-heavy approach deployed during their time together in Detroit, which would be suited to Fields' skill set. That may leave few targets left up for grabs for wideouts other than Wilson, especially with Breece Hall's presence as a capable pass catcher out of the backfield and the addition of rookie second-round TE Mason Taylor. In deeper fantasy formats, locking up the No. 2 role will at least give Reynolds a realistic path to having spike weeks in 2025.

Josh Reynolds: Officially released by Jacksonville
Rotowire
The Jaguars officially released Reynolds on Friday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Jacksonville officially cut both Reynolds and tight end Evan Engram (shoulder) on Friday, clearing additional cap space before the start of free agency and the legal tampering period next week. Reynolds' release will free up roughly $4.26 million in cap space. The veteran wideout joined the Jaguars as a waiver claim last December, ultimately securing one of five targets for 11 yards across four regular-season appearances with the team.

Jaguars' Josh Reynolds: Three targets Week 18
Rotowire
Reynolds secured one of three targets for 11 yards during Sunday's 26-23 loss to the Colts.
The 29-year-old operated as Jacksonville's No. 3 wide receiver and caught his first pass since being claimed off waivers from the Broncos in early December, but he had a minor role in the passing game. Reynolds totaled 13 receptions for 194 yards and one touchdown in nine games between Denver and Jacksonville this season. He's under contract for $3.99 million for next season but may not be retained by the Jaguars since that money isn't guaranteed.

Jaguars' Josh Reynolds: Minor role in Jacksonville debut
Rotowire
Reynolds failed to catch his lone target during Sunday's loss to the Jets.
The 29-year-old made his debut for the Jaguars after being claimed off waivers Dec. 4, but he didn't see much action in the passing game while working as the No. 4 wideout. Reynolds' role isn't likely to change much down the stretch if Brian Thomas, Parker Washington and Devin Duvernay remain healthy.

Jaguars' Josh Reynolds: Inactive Sunday

Reynolds is inactive for Sunday's game against the Titans.
Per Demetrius Harvey of The Florida Times-Union, Reynolds, who didn't practice with the Jaguars until Thursday, figures to make his debut with the team next weekend against the Jets. On Sunday, Brian Thomas, Parker Washington, Devin Duvernay, Tim Jones and Joshua Cephus are available to handle Jacksonville's wideout duties.

Jaguars' Josh Reynolds: Lands in Jacksonville
Rotowire
The Jaguars claimed Reynolds off waivers from the Broncos on Wednesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Reynolds held a top-three role at receiver for Denver in September but then dropped down the depth chart after a Week 5 finger fracture send him to injured reserve. He's seemingly healthy again and now lands with one of the few teams that may be weak enough at wide receiver to give him an opportunity as a starter. The Jaguars lost Christian Kirk (shoulder) and Gabe Davis (knee) to season-ending injuries over the past month, leaving Reynolds, Parker Washington, Devin Duvernay and Tim Jones as the choices to start at receiver alongside rookie standout Brian Thomas.

Josh Reynolds: Cut by Denver
Rotowire
The Broncos waived Reynolds (hand) on Tuesday, Aric DiLalla of the team's official site reports.
Reynolds hadn't played since Week 5 due to a fractured finger that required surgery, but he was a full participant in every practice since being designated for return from injured reserve Nov. 13. Though he's seemingly healthy again, Reynolds' 21-day evaluation window came to a close this week, and Denver didn't have an opening for him on the 53-man roster. The Broncos are seemingly comfortable with the strides that young receivers Devaughn Vele, Troy Franklin and Marvin Mims have made in recent weeks behind No. 1 option Courtland Sutton and were content to move on with Reynolds, who should be able to catch on elsewhere. Reynolds is in the first season of a two-year, $9 million contract, so he may clear waivers first before a team brings him aboard at a more palatable salary. The 29-year-old turned in a 12-183-1 receiving line on 19 targets over his five appearances with Denver before landing on IR.

Broncos' Josh Reynolds: Not returning in Week 12
Rotowire
Reynolds (hand) has been ruled out for Sunday's game in Las Vegas.
For a second consecutive week, Reynolds was listed as a full participant on all three Broncos injury reports. However, he won't be activated from injured reserve just yet as he continues to ramp things up since fracturing a finger Week 5 against the Raiders. His next chance to suit up is Monday, Dec. 2 versus the Browns.

Broncos' Josh Reynolds: Won't be activated Week 11
Rotowire
Reynolds (hand) won't play Sunday against the Falcons, Aric DiLalla of the Broncos' official site reports.
Reynolds won't be activated from injured reserve for Denver's Week 11 home game against the Falcons, but he was a full participant in practice all week after having his 21-day window to return opened Wednesday. Given that context, it wouldn't be surprising to see the wide receiver return to action Week 12 against the Raiders, though Reynolds would first have to be added to the active roster with an official transaction before he can suit up for a game.

Broncos' Josh Reynolds: Returns to practice
Rotowire
Reynolds (hand) returned to practice Wednesday as a full participant, Parker Gabriel of The Denver Post reports.
The Broncos placed Reynolds on injured reserve Oct. 12 due to a fractured finger. He then suffered minor injuries in a shooting a week later, but that doesn't seem to have affected his return timeline, with the Broncos having designated him for an IR return when first eligible. Denver now has a 21-day window in which Reynolds can practice with the team without being placed on the active roster. He may be activated before Sunday's game against the Falcons, in which case he would be a threat to take snaps away from Lil'Jordan Humphrey, Troy Franklin and Devaughn Vele.
