Buffalo Bills

Josh Reed was drafted by the Buffalo Bills in the second round (36th overall) of the 2002 NFL Draft. In 2003, Reed replaced Peerless Price as the Bills’ starting wide receiver. He caught 58 passes and two touchdowns.

Josh Reed was hospitalized for two days in November 2006 after bruising his kidney. He caught 311 passes for 3,575 yards and 10 touchdowns with the Bills. He became an unrestricted free agent following the 2009 season.

San Diego Chargers

Josh was signed by the San Diego Chargers to a one-year contract on June 11, 2010. He was released by the Chargers on September 4, 2010.

Fantasy Football

Josh is a standout Fantasy tight end. But been the case for three seasons in a row. After a breakout season in 2015 when he was challenging the likes of Rob Gronkowski to be the No. 1 Fantasy tight end, he’s missed 17 games over the past three years.

And even though he played 13 games last season, he battled through foot and toe injuries. Coach Jay Gruden said Reed is healthy now, and it would be great if he can play 16 games for the first time in his career.

Washington needs him with a receiving corps led by Josh Doctson, Paul Richardson, and Trey Quinn, and Fantasy players would love to get a quality tight end like Reed playing at a high level. He’s worth drafting with a late-round pick in all formats, and he could be a top-10 tight end by the end of the year.

Injury

Josh had a toe and foot issues in the last two seasons in the NFL, and this was the first offseason he didn’t require surgery or need to rehab an injury in the last three years. Reed turned 29 earlier this month and has sort of becoming a forgotten man at the tight end spot for fantasy purposes.

He’s never played a full 16-game season in his career, but the red-zone passing offense still goes through him when healthy. He’s basically free at the end of drafts right now. The bad news is this Redskins offense doesn’t project to be any good.

NFL

The Oakland Raiders did not play first-round running back Josh Jacobs in their opening preseason game. But in Oakland’s second preseason contest, Raiders coach Jon Gruden put the rookie from Alabama right to work against the Arizona Cardinals.

The first three snaps of the game were handoffs to Jacobs for runs between the tackles. Josh Reed gained 6, 8, and 6 yards. After a pass completion, Jacobs had a 1-yard run. On the next play, the Raiders scored a touchdown, and Jacobs’ first pro outing was over.

Jacobs totaled 21 yards on four rushing attempts in Oakland’s 33-26 victory over Arizona on Thursday night. “I was mad at myself because they should have been bigger runs,” Jacobs said. “But I was just knocking off the rust and things like that.

It’s slowing down for me already. That’s the only way I can really explain it.” It was a small sample size, but Oakland quarterback Derek Carr said Jacobs had shown plenty of promise. “Really good, right? His vision,” Carr said. “You know I’ve been able to hand the ball off to some really good running backs.

I’ve played with some fun ones MJD (Maurice Jones-Drew), D-Mac (Darren McFadden), Latavius (Murray), Marshawn (Lynch), Doug (Martin) and that’s just the guys that have carried most of the footballs.

I’ve played with a lot of good backs. Watching his vision was really impressive because I have the best seat in the house. I’m sitting back there playing Madden tell him to cut back and trying to run for him. He’s right up there with those guys.

“For him to do that, especially in his first game, I think the thing that rubbed off on me the most about Josh was his want-to. It wasn’t like, ‘Oh man, this is my first game.’ None of that. He was out there just trying to bully people. He was out there trying to run hard. Josh Reed didn’t care that he’s a rookie.

He’s trying to prove that he’s the best back in the NFL. That’s his mindset. Really impressed. Obviously, the runs and all of that, the offensive line did a great job, but more so impressed with his demeanor and mentality.”

Jacobs was among the 50 former Alabama players who got on the field during the second week of the 2019 NFL preseason. Two other former Alabama players got on the field during the Raiders-Cardinals game:

Raiders guard Lester Cotton (Central-Tuscaloosa) played 24 of Oakland’s 69 offensive snaps. Cardinals safety Deionte Thompson made one tackle. He was on the field for 31 defensive snaps and 11 special-teams plays.
