Right when it looked like Reynolds was losing grip of the No. 2 role, he comes with his highest snap share since Week 8. However, it may not matter who holds down this role given how the passing game is flowing through Amon-Ra St. Brown and tight end Sam LaPorta. It will be hard to trust any other Lions receiver entering a Week 14 matchup with Chicago.

Right when it looked like Reynolds was losing grip of the No. 2 role, he comes with his highest snap share since Week 8. However, it may not matter who holds down this role given how the passing game is flowing through Amon-Ra St. Brown and tight end Sam LaPorta. It will be hard to trust any other Lions receiver entering a Week 14 matchup with Chicago.
Following three straight unproductive games, Reynolds may finally be losing his grip on the No. 2 role behind Amon Ra St. Brown. His 58 percent snap share not only matched Jameson Williams but marked Reynolds' lowest figure of the year outside of a Week 5 matchup with the Panthers when Reynolds played through a groin injury. Meanwhile, Kalif Raymond saw his most offensive snaps in four games while Donovan Peoples-Jones saw seven of them after making his Lions debut last week against Chicago. While it is possible the Lions needed to get more bodies involved on a day the offense ran 84 plays, Reynolds will be harder and harder to trust if his snap share continues to shrink.
Reynolds has totaled 39 yards on seven targets over the past three weeks despite favorable matchups against the Raiders, Chargers and Bears. Meanwhile, Jameson Williams logged over half of the offensive snaps for the first time in his career last week in Los Angeles before nearly shooting up to a 68 percent figure against Chicago -- and snagging a 32-yard touchdown in the process. While Reynolds still finished second behind Amon-Ra St. Brown with a 73 percent snap share, it wouldn't be a surprise to see Williams jump Reynolds on the depth chart before season's end.
