Reynolds caught four of five targets for 76 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 42-24 win over the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
Reynolds led the Lions in receiving yards on a day when top wideout Amon-Ra St. Brown (abdomen) was sidelined. The veteran had a long catch of 27 yards and helped Detroit build its lead with a one-yard touchdown during the second quarter. Although he wasn't targeted in Week 3, Reynolds has otherwise topped 65 yards in every game this season, scoring three touchdowns in the Lions' last four contests to boot.

Reynolds (groin) is active for Sunday's game versus the Panthers.
EDGE Analysis
After a week in which he logged a pair of capped practices due to a groin injury, Reynolds will be available to the Lions offense Sunday and may even serve as the top target for quarterback Jared Goff with Amon-Ra St. Brown (abdomen) sidelined. Reynolds is welcoming second-year pro Jameson Williams to the lineup for the first time this season after the latter served a four-game gambling suspension. Having said that, Williams is slated to have a limited role off the bat, so Reynolds should have easy access to targets while working with TE Sam LaPorta and WRs Kalif Raymond and Marvin Jones.

Reynolds (groin) was a full practice participant Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Carolina.
EDGE Analysis
The Lions list eight players as questionable, two as doubtful and two as out, including wide receivers Amon-Ra St. Brown (abdomen - doubtful) and Jameson Williams (non-injury - questionable). There's not nearly as much concern with Reynolds, given that he's played through a groin injury a couple times already this season and was healthy enough Friday to practice without limitations. Kalif Raymond, Marvin Jones and Antoine Green are the healthy WRs on Detroit's 53-man roster.

Reynolds (groin) was limited at Thursday's practice.
EDGE Analysis
For the second time in three weeks, Reynolds is operating with a cap on his practice reps due to a groin injury. In Week 3, he was able to log all activity in the final session before going down as questionable, so that may be his fate this time around, too. Reynolds has earned between 69 and 80 percent of the offensive snaps in each of the Lions' four games this season en route to 12 catches (on 19 targets) for 215 yards and two touchdowns.

Reynolds was listed as a limited participant on Wednesday's practice estimate due to a groin injury.
EDGE Analysis
Reynolds also tended to a groin issue during Week 3 prep that left him questionable to play after following an LP/LP/FP practice regimen. He appears to be operating under a similar plan this week, but he'll have two more sessions to prove his health before the Lions potentially tag him with a designation ahead of Sunday's contest against the Panthers. Through four games this season, Reynolds has hauled in 12 of 19 targets for 215 yards and two touchdowns.

Reynolds caught three of six targets for 69 yards during Thursday's win over the Packers.
EDGE Analysis
Reynolds again logged the majority of offensive snaps and saw another six targets for the third time in four weeks. Oddly coming off a zero-target showing Week 3, it was encouraging for his fantasy investors to see Reynolds back in the box score even if it remains a concern that he can completely disappear from a game. With Marvin Jones ineffective at this stage of his career and the diminutive Kalif Raymond largely a clear-out runner, Reynolds should be good for a handful of targets every week as the next-best wideout after Amon-Ra St. Brown.

Reynolds was held without a target during Sunday's 20-6 win over Atlanta.
EDGE Analysis
Reynolds was muted by a Falcons secondary while Amon-Ra St. Brown and Kalif Raymond received all 18 targets that Jared Goff directed to wide receivers. However, even though the Texas A&M product did log three-quarters of the offensive snaps, it's possible that part of his ineffectiveness was due to a groin injury that landed Reynolds on the injury report in advance of Sunday's game. With Jameson Williams (suspension) still on the sidelines, Reynolds will look to bounce back Thursday in Green Bay.

Reynolds (groin) is active for Sunday's game against the Falcons.
EDGE Analysis
Reynolds and Amon-Ra St. Brown (groin) have both received the green light to play Sunday, despite the fact both wideouts had been listed as questionable heading into the day. Considering Reynolds closed Week 3 prep as a full practice participant Friday, the expectation is that he'll be able to handle his normal workload Sunday. In both of his first two games of the season, Reynolds has cleared 69 percent of the snaps while compiling nine receptions for 146 yards and two touchdowns on 13 targets.

Reynolds (groin), who is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Falcons, is considered "good to go," Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
EDGE Analysis
Along with Reynolds, the Lions are also listing Amon-Ra St. Brown (toe) as questionable, but both wideouts look as though they'll be ready to handle their normal workloads Sunday. Considering that Reynolds was at least able to practice fully Friday before taking the questionable tag into the weekend, he may be in better health than St. Brown, who plans to play with a steel plate in his shoe to reduce pain. Official confirmation on the availability of Reynolds and St. Brown will arrive when the Lions release their inactive list 90 minutes prior to Sunday's 1 p.m. ET kickoff, but assuming he's cleared of the injury designation as anticipated, Reynolds may shape up as a solid lineup option in deeper leagues. Through the first two weeks of the season, he's hauled in nine of 13 targets for 146 yards and two touchdowns.

Reynolds (groin) was a full practice participant Friday and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against Atlanta, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
Reynolds and Amon-Ra St. Brown (toe) both are on track to play with 'questionable' tags after upgrading to full practice participation Friday. Reynolds is off to a great start this year with nine catches for 146 yards and two TDs on three targets, but he's put together similar stretches in the past before fading back to either a bench role or an extremely low rate of targets per route. Even so, fantasy managers could do worse as far as Week 3 streamers or injury replacements go, as Reynolds at least has solidified himself as Detroit's top perimeter receiver until Jameson Williams returns from suspension Week 7 (and possibly beyond that if Williams gets off to a slow start).
