Summary
Austin Reed carries a 36.0 dynasty score, ranking 122 at QB.
Projection Rationale
His 50th percentile efficiency grade and 0th percentile production grade create a gap in his profile. Reed’s $840,000 APY with 0 guaranteed remaining and 1 year remaining on his contract makes his role security uncertain, and his ability to maintain a high level of production is questionable. Furthermore, the presence of another QB on the roster adds to the uncertainty surrounding Reed’s future in the starting role.
Injury Risk
No injury entries in 2024. At 25 years old, Austin Reed has a high durability grade (75th percentile), which is a positive aspect of his dynasty profile.
Opportunity Notes
Reed’s snap share was 70.1% in 2024, trending stable. The QB role is not secure with another QB on the roster, and this situation may impact his ability to maintain a high level of production.
Scheme Fit Analysis
This scheme does not directly affect Reed’s fantasy production, and his performance is more dependent on his individual skills and the team’s overall offense.
Trend Assessment
Declining. Reed’s efficiency grade declined to the 0th percentile, and his production grade remains at the 0th percentile. This decline in performance is a significant concern for his dynasty value.
Ceiling / Floor
Floor: QB5-QB6; Reed’s trade value is 2,016, indicating he is a mid-round asset in dynasty leagues. However, his declining performance and uncertain role security make him a higher-risk option.
