Redskins TE Vernon Davis (concussion) is out for Sunday’s game against the 49ers. Jeremy Sprinkle will again serve as Washington’s lead TE but isn’t a fantasy option in this matchup.

Redskins TEs Vernon Davis and Jordan Reed are out for Sunday’s game against the Dolphins with their concussions. With both guys out last week, TE Jeremy Sprinkle ran just 11 pass routes and TE Jerome Cunningham 4. Even in a plus matchup against Miami, avoid this situation in fantasy lineups.

Redskins TEs Jordan Reed and Vernon Davis are both out for Week 5 with their concussions. That leaves TE Jeremy Sprinkle atop the depth chart. He's not a fantasy option vs. the Patriots.

Redskins TE Vernon Davis is in the concussion protocol, according to The Athletic's Ben Standig. That makes Davis iffy for Sunday's game against the Patriots. His absence would leave TE Jeremy Sprinkle atop the depth chart. Washington is a mess.

Redskins TE Jordan Reed (concussion) is out for Sunday’s game against the Giants. There’s still no timetable for his return. TE Vernon Davis has totaled just 59 scoreless yards over the past 2 weeks after a strong opener. But he boasts some upside in a potential shootout vs. the G-Men.

Washington has ruled TE Jordan Reed out for Monday night's game against the Bears because of his concussion. That means Vernon Davis gets another start.

Redskins TE Jordan Reed (concussion) didn’t practice on Thursday or Friday and is a long shot for Monday night’s game against the Bears. We’ll get another update on him this afternoon, but look for Vernon Davis to get another game as Washington’s lead TE. He’s not a great fantasy play vs. Chicago.

Redskins TE Jordan Reed (concussion) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Cowboys. We'll see if he can get cleared ahead of Week 3. Vernon Davis will again serve as Washington's lead pass-catching TE after hanging a 4-59-1 line on the Eagles in the opener. He's a viable fantasy starter in Week 2 vs. a Dallas defense that just coughed up 116 yards and a score to Giants TE Evan Engram.

Redskins TE Jordan Reed (concussion) is inactive for today’s opener against the Eagles. Vernon Davis will serve as Washington’s starting TE but isn’t a recommended fantasy play in a tough matchup.

3:12pm EST 12/30/18

Redskins TE Vernon Davis (concussion) is inactive for today’s game against the Eagles. Jeremy Sprinkle will operate as Washington’s lead TE but would be a desperation fantasy play.

Redskins TE Vernon Davis (concussion) is doubtful for Sunday’s game against the Eagles. With TE Jordan Reed (foot) on IR, Jeremy Sprinkle will operate as Washington’s lead TE but isn’t an exciting fantasy play.

Redskins TE Vernon Davis (concussion) is out for Saturday's game against the Titans. With TE Jordan Reed (foot) also out, Jeremy Sprinkle is left as Washington’s lead TE. He’s only an option in Saturday-only DFS contests.

Redskins TE Jordan Reed (foot) is out for Saturday’s game against the Titans. TE Vernon Davis, meanwhile, is listed as questionable after experiencing concussion symptoms on Wednesday. He didn’t practice on Thursday. We’ll see if Davis is able to get cleared by Saturday afternoon, but this is a situation to avoid.

Redskins TE Jordan Reed (foot, ankle) is out for Sunday’s game against the Jaguars. He hasn’t been placed on IR, so Washington evidently believes he could be back this season. TE Vernon Davis serves as the Redskins’ lead TE this weekend but is a shaky fantasy option with Josh Johnson under center.

Redskins TE Jordan Reed's foot injury isn't believed to be major, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "But given the timing of it, he may have played his last down this season with three games to go," Rapoport adds. We'll look for further updates on Reed, but fantasy owners need to be making other plans. Vernon Davis will step in as Washington's lead TE for however long Reed is out, but the team's QB problems will make him tough to trust in lineups.

Redskins TE Jordan Reed suffered what appeared to be a foot injury in the 1st quarter of Sunday's game against the Giants. This might be related to the toe issues that have bothered him for a couple of years now. We'll pass along an update on Reed when we get one.

Update: Reed has been ruled out with his foot injury. Vernon Davis steps in as Washington's pass-catching TE.

Redskins HC Jay Gruden said Monday that TE Vernon Davis has a bruised hand. X-rays came back negative. We'll keep an eye on him this week, but Davis should be available for this weekend's game against the Vikings. TE Jordan Reed remains "day-to-day" with his hamstring injury, Gruden said.

Redskins TE Vernon Davis injured his hand in the 4th quarter of Sunday's game against the Seahawks. He's officially questionable to return. We'll pass along an update when we get one.

Redskins TE Jordan Reed (rib/sternum) told reporters on Friday that he’ll be a game-time decision for Week 3. He put in limited practices on Thursday and Friday and is officially listed as questionable. Reed said that he has full range of motion in his injured shoulder — but also admitted that he’s still in pain. Fantasy owners are obviously in a tough spot with Redskins-Raiders not kicking off until 8:30 pm ET on Sunday night. If you’re hoping to use Reed —and he’ll be a risky play if active — you need to have a late-game alternative lined up. Jared Cook and Vernon Davis are viable options.

Redskins TE Jordan Reed (rib/sternum) returned to a limited practice on Thursday after missing Wednesday's workout. "Pain is becoming manageable," HC Jay Gruden said afterward. "We'll see how he does tomorrow." Reed still sounds iffy for Sunday night's game against the Raiders -- and we might not know his official status until 7 pm ET. Fantasy owners would be wise to add Vernon Davis as a backup plan if Reed ends up inactive.
