Ok, here we go. Trying to predict the Packers roulette wheel of wide receivers has been fun weekly. (it hasn't). Reed should lead the way this week despite the coverage matchup not being in his favor. Since Week 7, Detroit has utilized single high at the seventh-highest rate (57.8%). Against single-high, since Week 4, Reed ranks fourth on the team in target share (11.9%) and third in YPRR (2.11) and first-read share (16.8%). Detroit's struggles to defend the slot is what pushes Reed to the top of the Cheesehead pile this week. Detroit has allowed the third-most fantasy points per game and the second-most receiving yards per game to slot receivers this season.
