Finds new home
The Saints signed Valdes-Scantling on Monday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: In the wake of losing Rashid Shaheed for the season due to a torn meniscus last week, the Saints were in the market for help at wide receiver, both in the short and long term. No. 1 receiver Chris Olave remains in the concussion protocol, leaving Mason Tipton, Bub Means and Cedrick Wilson as the healthy options at the position prior to the addition of Valdes-Scantling. Before getting cut by the Bills last Tuesday, the veteran wideout had hauled in two of nine targets for 26 yards in six…read more

Works out in Big Easy
Valdes-Scantling had a workout with the Saints on Saturday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Less than a week removed from exiting Buffalo, Valdes-Scantling could be in line to call a new city home. The speedy pass catcher was not able to stand out enough with the Bills to hold on to a roster spot, but the receiver-needy Saints could make more sense for his services. In his seventh season, the journeyman has logged just 26 yards on two receptions across six games.

Moving on from Buffalo
The Bills released Valdes-Scantling on Tuesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling's release frees up a spot on the 53-man roster for the newly acquired Amari Cooper, but the Bills won't clear any cap space with the move, as Valdes-Scantling signed a fully guaranteed one-year, $2.25 million deal in the offseason. He suited up in each of the Bills' first six games of the season but failed to make much of an impact, logging just two catches for 26 yards on nine targets while playing 127 snaps.

Held catchless in loss
Valdes-Scantling failed to secure his lone target in Sunday's 35-10 loss to the Ravens.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling continued to play a limited role in Buffalo's offense in Week 4. The veteran wideout played 25 of the Bills' 59 offensive snaps, behind Keon Coleman (43), Mack Hollins (36) and Khalil Shakir (35). His one target was the lowest of any Buffalo wide receiver in the contest. Going forward, Valdes-Scantling won't hold much fantasy value barring injuries to the other members of the receiving corps. The Bills are set to visit the Texans in Week 5.

Leads receivers in snaps
Valdes-Scantling hauled in one of his two targets for a seven-yard gain in Monday's 47-10 win over the Jaguars.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling finished as the surprising leader in playing time among Bills wideouts in Week 3. He took the field for 49 of the Bills' 64 offensive snaps, with his 77 percent snap share narrowly outpacing Mack Hollins (72 percent) and Khalil Shakir (55 percent). However, even with quarterback Josh Allen spreading the ball out liberally among his pass catchers through the first three weeks, Valdes-Scantling hasn't been able to make a mark in the box score. He's drawn just five targets this…read more

Non-factor in Week 2 win
Valdes-Scantling didn't catch his only target in Thursday's 31-10 win over the Dolphins.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling has just one catch on three targets through two games with the Bills. The speedster will likely connect with big-armed quarterback Josh Allen for a few big plays this season, but those will probably come sporadically given Valdes-Scantling's lack of a consistent role in Buffalo's offense. Heading into a Week 3 home game against the Jaguars, Valdes-Scantling is fifth among Bills wide receivers in targets behind Khalil Shakir (eight), Keon Coleman (six), Curtis Samuel (four) and…read more

Targeted twice in win
Valdes-Scantling reeled in one of his two targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 34-28 win over the Cardinals.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling played just 13 of the Bills' 62 offensive snaps Sunday, the fewest of any Buffalo wideout. Buried on the depth chart behind Keon Coleman, Khalil Shakir, Mack Hollins and Curtis Samuel, the 29-year-old likely will struggle to see enough consistent playing time to sustain fantasy relevance. Nonetheless, Valdes-Scantling will have his next opportunity to produce in what projects to be a shootout between Buffalo and Miami in Week 2.

Healthy to kick off regular season
Valdes-Scantling (neck) is not listed on Wednesday's injury report.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling has apparently made a full recovery from the neck injury he suffered in an Aug. 17 preseason game versus the Steelers. Moving past the neck issue doesn't guarantee that the veteran deep threat will be active Sunday versus Arizona, though, as all of Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, Curtis Samuel and Mack Hollins are healthy and seem to be ahead of him on the depth chart. If he suits up Sunday, Valdes-Scantling may be limited to just a handful of snaps.

Practicing in regular jersey
Valdes-Scantling (neck) participated in the portion of practice open to the media Wednesday, Sal Capaccio of WGR 550 Radio reports.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling suffered a neck injury in a preseason game Aug. 17 against the Steelers, but he has made progress in his recovery. Every member of Buffalo's recently finalized 53-man roster participated Wednesday in some capacity, and Valdes-Scantling wasn't among the three players donning red non-contact jerseys. The veteran deep threat thus appears on track to suit up Week 1 against the Cardinals, but it will be worth monitoring whether Valdes-Scantling's name pops up on the injury reports…read more

Makes final cut
Valdes-Scantling (neck) has made Buffalo's initial 53-man roster, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling was no lock to make the roster, but head coach Sean McDermott expressed optimism last week that the veteran wideout has a good chance of being ready for Week 1. When the Bills made their cutdown decisions, the team had a desire to keep a downfield threat on the roster, which helped Valdes-Scantling secure a spot. Despite his standing on the roster, Valdes-Scantling isn't guaranteed to be active Week 1 against the Cardinals, and even if he does suit up, he'll likely be the fifth…read more

May be ready for Week 1
When asked Thursday about the chances of Valdes-Scantling (neck) and Curtis Samuel (turf toe) playing Week 1, coach Sean McDermott expressed a degree of optimism, Alec White of the Bills' official site reports.
Analysis: "I feel like those two, from what I've heard so far, have a real good chance of being back, just not committing to it yet," McDermott noted of Valdes-Scantling and Samuel. Once available, Valdes-Scantling will look to solidify his standing in a Buffalo WR corps that also includes Khalil Shakir, Keon Coleman, Samuel, Mack Hollins and KJ Hamler.

Out multiple weeks
Valdes-Scantling (neck) is expected to miss multiple weeks, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: With Valdes-Scantling's Week 1 status now unclear and Curtis Samuel (turf toe) week-to-week, the Bills' depth at wideout ahead of the regular season is being taxed. For now, Buffalo's top healthy options at the position are Khalil Shakir and Keon Coleman, but it's plausible that the team will look to bolster the ranks in the coming days.

X-rays return negative
Valdes-Scantling had X-rays on his neck that came back negative, and he's been diagnosed with a neck sprain, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling was carted from the sideline to the locker room due to the neck injury during Saturday's preseason game against Pittsburgh, so his diagnosis is positive news in that context. It's uncertain whether the veteran wideout will be able to play in Buffalo's final preseason contest against Carolina on Saturday, but it looks like the injury won't sideline him long term. That said, Valdes-Scantling hasn't had a great camp, so it's not a guarantee that he'll end up on the 53-man roster.

Ruled out Saturday
Valdes-Scantling (neck) won't return to Saturday's preseason contest at Pittsburgh.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling had his neck stabilized after a catch in the second quarter and eventually was carted to the locker room. Considering he's lagged behind in the WR competition in training camp and now is dealing with a health concern, he could be in danger of not making the Bills' initial roster after cut-down day Tuesday, Aug. 27.

Sustains neck injury
Valdes-Scantling suffered a neck injury during Saturday's preseason game in Pittsburgh.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling remained on the field after a second-quarter catch and even had his neck stabilized by trainers, but he eventually sat up and went to the sideline tent before being carted to the locker room. With his night almost certainly over, his upcoming prognosis may be a determining factor to whether or not he's able to earn a roster spot on the Bills on cut-down day (Tuesday, Aug. 27).

Carted to locker room
Valdes-Scantling (undisclosed) needed a cart to go to the locker room during Saturday's preseason game at Pittsburgh, Katherine Fitzgerald of The Buffalo News reports.
Analysis: After making a catch in the second quarter, Valdes-Scantling remained on the field for a spell and even had his neck stabilized, but he eventually was able to sit up and make his way to the sideline tent with assistance from team trainers. The nature of the injury isn't known, but it wouldn't surprise if his night is over considering it's exhibition season.

May be on roster bubble
Valdes-Scantling's first-team reps have dwindled amidst a slow start to training camp, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Chase Claypool's absence due to a toe injury might have seemed like an opportunity for Valdes-Scantling to get more reps and deep targets, but Buscaglia notes that the former Packers and Chiefs wideout has mostly been working with backups and not making any noise. Valdes-Scantling could end up on the roster bubble, even though he'll be guaranteed $2.25 million for 2024.

Gets one-year deal in Buffalo
The Bills are slated to sign Valdes-Scantling to a one-year contract worth up to $4.5 million Tuesday, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling was released by the Chiefs back in February, and he now lands with another AFC powerhouse. Buffalo's revamped wide receiver corps, which lost Stefon Diggs via trade and Gabe Davis to free agency, could use a deep threat to complement Khalil Shakir, Curtis Samuel and rookie second-round pick Keon Coleman. Working as the No. 4 man on the depth chart could be an ideal situation for Valdes-Scantling to contribute, though if utilized only as a situation downfield target, he's more…read more

Let go by Kansas City
Kansas City will release Valdes-Scantling on Wednesday, Jeremy Fowler of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling's only chance of remaining with the Chiefs would have been to restructure the final year of his three-year, $30 million contract, but Kansas City will instead cut him loose to save roughly $12 million in cap space. The savings are a necessity for the Chiefs, who are hoping to retain defensive stalwarts L'Jarius Sneed and Chris Jones this offseason on longer-term deals. Valdes-Scantling did little across 16 regular-season games in 2023, with just 21 catches for 315 yards and one…read more

Candidate to be released
Kansas City may release Valdes-Scantling this offseason, a move that would clear up $12 million in cap space, according to Nate Taylor of The Athletic.
Analysis: It's a no-brainer move barring a renegotiated contract, despite Valdes-Scantling's contributions in the playoffs the past two seasons. He's won two rings since signing a three-year, $30 million contract with the team in March 2022, but he caught only 21 passes for 315 yards and one touchdown in 16 games during the 2023 regular season. Valdes-Scantling will turn 30 years old next October and has never reached 700 yards in a season despite taking nearly all of his NFL snaps with either Patrick…read more

Ices game with big reception
Valdes-Scantling caught both of his targets for 38 yards in Sunday's 17-10 AFC Championship win over the Ravens.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling began Kansas City's final offensive drive with just one reception for six yards before getting loose over the top for a 32-yard reception that allowed his team to run out the clock and advance to Super Bowl LVIII. That's now two consecutive weeks in which the 29-year-old wideout made clutch receptions to help his team ice playoff victories.

Redemption in divisional round
Valdes-Scantling recorded two receptions on four targets for 62 yards in Sunday's 27-24 win over the Bills.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling got attention this season for the wrong reasons, as he often squandered opportunities with drops. However, he delivered key receptions of 32 and 30 yards in the Chiefs' win, both of which helped set up touchdowns later in the drive. It was Valdes-Scantling's highest yardage total since Week 7 and the first time he topped 30 receiving yards in that span. With Kadarius Toney (hip) struggling to get healthy and Mecole Hardman losing a key fumble Sunday, Valdes-Scantling may be…read more

Held to one catch in wild-card round
Valdes-Scantling recorded one catch for eight yards on two targets Saturday in the Chiefs' 26-7 win over the Dolphins in the wild-card round.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling returned to action after he was active for the Chiefs' 13-12 win over the Chargers in the regular-season finale Jan. 7, though he didn't actually play any snaps in the contest while Kansas City held out several key players with its postseason positioning already locked up. The 29-year-old turned in a disappointing season overall, with his 21-315-1 receiving line on 42 targets over 16 appearances marking a steep decline from his already modest outputs of 42 catches for 687 yards…read more

Minimal output versus Bengals
Valdes-Scantling gathered in one of three targets for three yards during Sunday's 25-17 win against Cincinnati.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling certainly hasn't produced at a level that satisfies the terms of his contract for the 2023 campaign, catching no more than three passes in a contest, which occurred only once in Week 7. He has only one touchdown this year and has clearly fallen behind in the target pecking order, so from a fantasy perspective, there's little reason to show much interest in the veteran. He still plays plenty, however, logging the second-most snaps among wideouts in Week 17. With the Chiefs…read more

Blanked in Week 16
Valdes-Scantling did not catch his only target in Monday's 20-14 loss versus the Raiders.
Analysis: Despite leading Kansas City's wide receivers in snaps Monday (58), Valdes-Scantling was only able to draw one target, which he couldn't haul in. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes didn't have much time in the pocket, so the longer routes that are Valdes-Scantling's calling card were simply not in play for much of the game. He'll look to bounce back in Week 17 versus the Bengals.

One target in Week 15
Valdes-Scantling secured his only target for 17 yards in Sunday's 27-17 win over the Patriots.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling saw just one target on a day that quarterback Patrick Mahomes attempted 37 passes. The veteran wideout has played at least one-third of the Chiefs' snaps on offense in all 14 games this season, but he hasn't exceeded five targets in any outing and has cleared 50 receiving yards on just one occasion.

Reels in two catches
Valdes-Scantling secured two of four targets for 22 yards in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Bills.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling continued his disappointing season Sunday, catching just two passes for the second straight week. The veteran wideout played 22 of the Chiefs' 66 offensive snaps, behind Rashee Rice (56), Justin Watson (36), Kadarius Toney (29) and Skyy Moore (23). Since Kansas City's Week 9 bye, Valdes-Scantling is roughly averaging a 45 percent snap share compared to the 61 percent average he saw in the first eight games.

Modest production in loss
Valdes-Scantling caught two of five targets for 25 yards in Sunday's 27-19 loss to the Packers.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling's five targets tied a season-high that he previously set back in Week 7. Even so, the veteran wideout didn't do much with his opportunities while facing off against his former team. Valdes-Scantling has averaged just 16.1 receiving yards per game while finding the end zone only once through 12 appearances, making him difficult to trust as a weekly lineup option even in deeper leagues.

Another lackluster showing
Valdes-Scantling gathered in two of three targets for 22 yards during Sunday's 21-14 victory against the Dolphins.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling hasn't claimed more than three passes in a game yet this season as part of a Chiefs offense that hasn't quite kept pace with Kansas City's high-powered offenses in years past. MVS should continue to see consistent reps, but he's not a priority target in the passing attack and will likely remain a touchdown-dependent fantasy option each week.

Kept in check by Broncos
Valdes-Scantling hauled in two of his four targets for 27 yards during Sunday's 24-9 defeat against Denver.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling pieced together his best effort of the season last week against the Chargers, notching three grabs for 84 yards and a score, but he could not replicate that output in Sunday's contest despite the Chiefs trailing a healthy portion of the contest. He did finish the game with his second-most targets (four) this season, but the veteran can be left off most fantasy rosters at this point.

Best game of season in win
Valdes-Scantling secured three of five targets for 84 yards and a touchdown in the Chiefs' 31-17 win over the Chargers on Sunday.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling finished a distant second in receiving yards to Travis Kelce on the afternoon for the Chiefs, but the veteran receiver's tally was his best of the season by far. Valdes-Scantling hadn't topped 48 receiving yards prior to Sunday, and the play that was integral to him eclipsing that mark, his early-second-quarter 46-yard touchdown reception, also served as his first score of the campaign.

One target in Week 6
Valdes-Scantling didn't catch his lone target in Thursday's 19-8 win over the Broncos.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling's only target came on a Patrick Mahomes throwaway, as the receiver corralled the ball well past the back of the end zone. While nobody has emerged as the clear No. 1 option in Kansas City's muddled wide receiver room, Valdes-Scantling has been closer to the bottom than the top, with just seven catches through six games and no more than one reception in any of the past four.

Pedestrian line again
Valdes-Scantling had one reception (on two targets) for 12 yards during Sunday's 27-20 victory versus the Vikings.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling has just a single catch on two targets to his name in each of the last three contests and no more than two in a game through the first five weeks, so it's likely not worth rostering the veteran wideout in most formats. An injury or two in the passing attack won't change much either, as MVS still led wideouts in offensive snaps (65 percent) while producing next to nothing in the box score, so there's little upside to his profile at this point.

Limited impact in Week 4
Valdes-Scantling gathered in one of his two targets for six yards during Sunday's 23-20 victory over the Jets.
Analysis: After logging the most or second-most snaps among Chiefs receivers in the first three games, Valdes-Scantling fell to third in that count (34) Sunday evening behind Justin Watson (43) and Skyy Moore (41). MVS has just six catches for 104 yards through the first four games, and there's little to suggest things are trending in a positive direction for the veteran deep threat, especially with rookie Rashee Rice nipping at his heels for playing time and Justin Watson surpassing him in snaps.

Nabs single pass in Week 3
Valdes-Scantling reeled in one of two targets for 37 yards during Sunday's 41-10 victory over Chicago.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling hasn't compiled more than two catches in a game through the first trio of weeks, drawing no more than three targets in a contest. He's also yet to find pay dirt, and it's seemingly trending toward another season in which the Chiefs' wide receiver room won't sport consistent production. However, MVS is already trailing Rashee Rice (14), Skyy Moore (13), Justin Watson and Kadarius Toney (11) in targets, so there's little to suggest he will be a worthwhile fantasy asset in 2023.

Valdes-Scantling recorded two receptions for 13 yards on three targets in Sunday's 17-9 win over the Jaguars.
Analysis: For the second week in a row, Valdes-Scantling was limited to just two receptions, and all three of his targets came in the short areas of the field. The 28-year-old has the ability to stretch the field after recording 13 receptions of 20-plus yards in 2022, but Justin Watson has looked like the Chiefs' top deep threat through the first two weeks.

Team-high yardage total in loss
Valdes-Scantling secured both targets for 48 yards in the Chiefs' 21-20 loss to the Lions on Thursday night.
Analysis: The veteran speedster led the Chiefs in yardage, with the highlight of his night a 34-yard third-down grab late in the first half on a drive that culminated in a four-yard Blake Bell touchdown. However, Valdes-Scantling disappointingly didn't see any uptick in volume despite the absence of Travis Kelce (knee), with his two targets less than the amount he saw in all but four games last season and postseason.

Listed as starter on depth chart
Valdes-Scantling was listed as a starting receiver on the Chiefs' unofficial depth chart released Wednesday, Blair Kerkhoff of The Kansas City Star reports.
Analysis: Alongside Valdes-Scantling as a starting wideout is 2022 second-round pick Skyy Moore. With the status of Kadarius Toney (knee) in question for Week 1, Valdes-Scantling and Moore have been getting all of the first-team reps throughout training camp. Valdes-Scantling should have better chemistry with Patrick Mahomes in their second season together. The veteran wide receiver is looking to improve on his 42-687-2 receiving line from last season.

Goes quiet in Super Bowl
Valdes-Scantling didn't reel in his only target during the Super Bowl versus the Eagles.
Analysis: After a breakout effort during the AFC Championship win over the Bengals, where he recorded six catches for 116 yards and a touchdown, the deep threat was held in check against the Eagles. He closed out the playoffs with seven catches for 122 yards and a pair of scores after compiling 42 grabs for 687 yards and a pair of touchdowns during the regular season. MVS' deal with the Chiefs extends through the 2024 campaign, so he will likely retain a similar role in 2023.

Delivers best game of season
Valdes-Scantling brought in six of eight targets for 116 yards and a touchdown during the Chiefs' 23-20 win over the Bengals in Sunday's AFC Championship Game.
Analysis: The talented speedster put together his best yardage total yet as a Chief and produced his second touchdown in as many weeks via a 19-yard scoring grab with 4:15 remaining in the third quarter. His yardage tally also was a team-high figure, and thanks in part to in-game injuries to JuJu Smith-Schuster (knee), Mecole Hardman (pelvis) and Kadarius Toney (ankle), Valdes-Scantling's target mark also tied Travis Kelce's for tops on Kansas City. Valdes-Scantling could be headed for another busy day…read more

Light tally to close regular season
Valdes-Scantling gathered in three of targets for 27 yards during Saturday's 31-13 victory over the Raiders.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling compiled three or fewer catches for the fifth straight game, didn't top 28 receiving yards in any of the final five weeks and had just one touchdown to his name all season. The deep threat didn't really live up to what Kansas City was aiming for when they signed him to a three-year contract before the season, though he did compile a career-high 42 catches and fell just three yards short of his career high in receiving yards with 687. MVS also drew 13 targets combined between…read more

Inefficient with target volume
Valdes-Scantling caught two of seven targets for 28 yards during Sunday's 27-24 win versus the Broncos.
Analysis: There were numerous occasions where Valdes-Scantling had a chance to make a big play but was ultimately unable to connect with quarterback Patrick Mahomes. It's at least an encouraging sign to see the deep threat drawing his most targets since Week 7, but it didn't turn into much tangible fantasy production. Valdes-Scantling could be an interesting deep fantasy option in some postseason leagues, but he doesn't possess much fantasy value in regular redrafts at this point.

Held catchless in win
Valdes-Scantling failed to catch either of his two targets in Saturday's 24-10 win over the Seahawks.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling was a complete non-factor in the contest, and he played fewer offensive snaps than fellow wideouts JuJu Smith-Schuster (44) and Justin Watson (39). In fact, the veteran's 23-snap total was his lowest of the campaign. Valdes-Scantling has been up-and-down so far this season, as Patrick Mahomes is known to spread the ball around to several pass catchers. With that said, being a part of Kansas City's aerial attack certainly allows for great potential on any given week. In Week 17,…read more

Finds end zone in OT win
Valdes-Scantling secured three of five targets for 26 yards and a touchdown in the Chiefs' 30-24 overtime win over the Texans on Sunday.
Analysis: The speedy wideout recorded a touchdown for the first time since Week 10 and only his second time all season on an impressive sliding four-yard grab in the right side of the end zone with 14 seconds remaining in the first half. Otherwise, MVS once again had a modest role on a prolific day for the Chiefs' air attack, posting his fourth sub-30-yard receiving day in the last seven games. Valdes-Scantling will next take aim at an inconsistent Seahawks secondary in a Week 16 home matchup Saturday…read more

Small impact in Week 14
Valdes-Scantling caught one of three targets for 20 yards during Sunday's 34-28 victory against the Broncos.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling has played around half the offensive snaps in each of the last three games, a far cry from the 70-plus percent he played in nearly every game through Week 11. MVS still drew 11 targets over the two previous games but received just three Sunday. He has gone over 100 receiving yards just once all season and has just one receiving touchdown to his name, so Valdes-Scantling can be left on the waiver wire in most formats.

Leading receiver in Sunday's loss
Valdes-Scantling caught two of six targets for 71 yards in Sunday's 27-24 loss to the Bengals.
Analysis: He could have had a much bigger day, as drops were an issue for Valdes-Scantling once again, but his 71 yards still led Kansas City. It's his best performance since he erupted for 111 yards back in Week 7, but the former Packer could have trouble repeating it in Week 14 against a stingy Broncos secondary.

Four catches in Sunday's win

Analysis: Travis Kelce bested him by one yard for the team lead as Valdes-Scantling saw his highest target volume since Week 5. The former Packer remains a secondary part of the high-powered Kansas City passing game, making him a volatile fantasy option heading into a Week 13 clash with the Bengals.

Struggles with four targets
Valdes-Scantling (illness) recorded one reception on four targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 30-27 win over the Chargers.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling was battling an illness during practice this week, but he was ultimately cleared from the injury report prior to Sunday night's tilt. The veteran wideout wasn't able to step up with several key Kansas City receivers missing from action, instead posting one of his poorer stat lines of the year.

Valdes-Scantling (illness) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday night's game against the Chargers after practicing fully Friday.
Analysis: With JuJu Smith-Schuster ruled out with a concussion and Mecole Hardman (abdomen/illness) having been placed on IR, Valdes-Scantling is in line to handle plenty of snaps Sunday, while Kadarius Toney, Justin Watson and Skyy Moore also are candidates to see added opportunities Week 11. Through nine games, Valdes-Scantling has caught 26 of his 43 targets for 441 yards and a TD, and with both Smith-Schuster and Hardman sidelined this weekend, the 6-foot-4, 206-pounder should see enough volume in…read more

Valdes-Scantling (illness) returned to a limited practice Thursday.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling missed Wednesday's practice, so his return to the field Friday bodes well for his chances of suiting up Sunday night against the Chargers. If he upgrades to full participation Friday, Valdes-Scantling could approach the contest minus an injury designation, and if so he'd be in line for a key role for Week 11, with JuJu Smith-Schuster iffy due to a concussion and Mecole Hardman (abdomen) having been placed on IR on Thursday.

Meanwhile, JuJu Smith-Schuster (concussion) and Mecole Hardman (abdomen) are slated to miss practice again Thursday, and if either one or both is unable to play this weekend, Valdes-Scantling could be busy Week 11, with Kadarius Toney, Justin Watson and Skyy Moore also candidates to factor in versus Los Angeles.

Gets into end zone Sunday
Valdes-Scantling brought in three of four targets for 60 yards and a touchdown in the Chiefs' 27-17 win over the Jaguars on Sunday.
Analysis: The speedster didn't see a boost in targets despite the first-half departure of fellow wideout JuJu Smith-Schuster due to a head injury, but he still delivered nicely for fantasy managers on an 18-yard scoring grab early in the second quarter, the first of his Chiefs tenure.

Little involvement versus Titans
Valdes-Scantling caught his only target for 12 yards during Sunday's 20-17 overtime victory against Tennessee.
Analysis: While the Chiefs gave Valdes-Scantling a healthy contract prior to the 2022 campaign, it hasn't proved fruitful for either the team or MVS. The deep threat has finished with 90-plus yards on a pair of occasions but has yet to reach pay dirt and saw a season-low one target Sunday night.

Records season-high 111 yards
Valdes-Scantling hauled in three of four passes for 111 yards and no touchdowns during Sunday's 44-23 win at San Francisco.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling had his best outing as a Chief in terms of receiving yards, which was powered by two of the three longest plays of the game for the team, a 40-yard grab in the second quarter and a 57-yarder in the final period. The receptions marked his first of the campaign of 40-plus yards, but he also played a season-low 55 percent of the offensive snaps Sunday.

His lackluster performance comes just a week removed from his best game with the Chiefs, in which he paced the team with 90 yards.

Leads way with 90 yards
Valdes-Scantling recorded six receptions on eight targets for 90 yards in Monday's 30-29 win over the Raiders.
Analysis: While overshadowed by Travis Kelce's four-touchdown performance, Valdes-Scantling delivered his best game as a Chief. His performance was highlighted by three catches of more than 15 yards, and he delivered a pair of key receptions on third down to keep drives alive. Valdes-Scantling has often served as a deep threat throughout his career, but he's shown the ability to produce on volume early in his tenure in Kansas City and now has at least seven targets in three of his last four games.

The former Packer now has 13 receptions on 23 targets for 168 yards through four games with his new club.

Valdes-Scantling (abdomen) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers after returning to a limited practice Friday.
Analysis: After being deemed a non-participant at Thursday's practice, Valdes-Scantling logged a limited session Friday, which gives him a chance to suit up for Sunday night's 8:20 p.m. ET contest. Ideally, added context regarding the wideout's Week 4 status will arrive before the first wave of kickoffs Sunday, but if Valdes-Scantling ends up out or limited against Tampa Bay, Justin Watson and Skyy Moore would be candidates to see added WR snaps for Kansas City.

Records four grabs in loss
Valdes-Scantling secured four of seven targets for 48 yards in the Chiefs' 20-17 loss to the Colts on Sunday.
Analysis: The speedster put together a solid effort overall while tying for second on the team in catches and checking in third in receiving yardage. Valdes-Scantling was also behind just JuJu Smith-Schuster and Travis Kelce in targets, and the fifth-year pro has encouragingly drawn 18 looks from Patrick Mahomes through three games. Valdes-Scantling's next opportunity to improve on a serviceable start to his Chiefs tenure comes in a tough road assignment versus the Buccaneers in Week 4.

Working alongside top wide receiver Davante Adams doesn't allow for consistent volume, but Valdes-Scantling and fellow secondary option Allen Lazard will aim to exploit a Ravens defense that has conceded 8.6 yards per target (seventh worst in the NFL) and 12 touchdowns (tied for 15th most) to the position in 13 games this season.

Questionable after limited practice
Valdes-Scantling (back) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game in Baltimore, Jeff Zrebiec of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: He appears on track to play after logging limited practices throughout the week. With Randall Cobb (groin) on IR for at least two more games and likely the rest of the regular season, both Valdes-Scantling and Allen Lazard have been in full-time roles alongside Davante Adams. The Packers and Ravens are scheduled for a 4:25 ET kickoff Sunday, with Amari Rodgers, Malik Taylor (abdomen) and Juwann Winfree the options to fill in at WR if Valdes-Scantling is inactive or limited.

Another limited listing Thursday
Valdes-Scantling (back) was limited at Thursday's practice.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling maintained his listing from Wednesday's estimated injury report. He has one more session remaining during Week 15 prep, after which the Packers may give him a designation ahead of Sunday's game in Baltimore.

Limited by back issue
Valdes-Scantling was listed as limited participant on Wednesday's estimated injury report due to a back injury, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling has been a hit-or-miss performer in his eight appearances this season, turning in two outings of more than 50 yards plus one touchdown, while falling short of those thresholds in every other game but one. He and Allen Lazard are the co-No. 2 wide receivers behind top dog Davante Adams, but Valdes-Scantling's status now is one to monitor as Sunday's game in Baltimore approaches.

Catches three passes
Valdes-Scantling was targeted five times and caught three passes for 20 yards in Sunday's 45-30 victory over the Bears.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling caught at least three passes for the third game in a row, but he also took a clear back seat to both Davante Adams and Allen Lazard in Week 14. Valdes-Scantling has been plenty busy of late, racking up 24 targets over his last three games and playing at least two-thirds of the snaps in each contest, but he also caught just 11 passes during that span, and 75 of the 193 yards he tallied came on one play. He'll take on a depleted Ravens secondary Week 15, but he presumably will be…read more

Commands nine targets
Valdes-Scantling recorded four receptions on nine targets for 50 yards in Sunday's 36-28 win over the Rams.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling finished tied for the team lead with nine targets and likely benefited from the absence of Randall Cobb (groin) in the second half. Valdes-Scantling now has 19 targets combined across his last two games. He continued to serve as a deep threat for the team, as he recorded a 28-yard reception early in the third quarter. As a result of that reception, Valdes-Scantling now has at least one reception of 20 or more yards in three consecutive games and has topped 40 total receiving…read more

Rips off 75-yard TD
Valdes-Scantling had four receptions on 10 targets for 123 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 34-31 loss to the Vikings.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling moved into the starting lineup with Allen Lazard (shoulder) missing the contest. The 27-year-old took full advantage of the opportunity, breaking off a 75-yard touchdown while nearly matching his total season output in just one game. Lazard's status for Week 12 is still up in the air, so Valdes-Scantling could get another start alongside Davante Adams against the Rams. That scenario could result in another high-usage game for MVS if the latter has to deal with Jalen Ramsey.

Ready to face Vikings
Valdes-Scantling (hip) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Vikings, Wes Hodkiewicz of the Packers' official site reports.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling was limited in practice Friday for the second day in a row due to the hip issue, but the Packers weren't concerned enough about the injury to deem him questionable heading into the weekend. Meanwhile, Allen Lazard (shoulder) is listed as doubtful for the Week 11 contest, so Valdes-Scantling should have a clear path to a regular spot in three-receiver sets alongside No. 1 option Davante Adams and slot man Randall Cobb.

Dealing with hip issue
Valdes-Scantling was limited at Thursday's practice due to a hip injury, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling already has had a stint on injured reserve this season, sitting out Weeks 4-8 due to a hamstring issue. In two games since his return to action, he's gathered in three of four passes for 60 yards and no scores. Valdes-Scantling wasn't listed on Wednesday's practice report, so his appearance Thursday is somewhat concerning. In the end, though, the Packers may clear up his status following Friday's session.

Makes one catch
Valdes-Scantling caught one pass for 42 yards on two targets against Seattle on Sunday.
Analysis: That Valdes-Scantling saw just two targets indicates the Seahawks were taking the deep threat seriously. It's the one card that MVS can always count on, but when defenses take it away he sometimes goes cold for stretches. Valdes-Scantling might not be consistent in this role, but he won't stay cold forever. The Vikings will have to take him seriously in Week 11.

Two receptions in return
Valdes-Scantling was targeted twice and caught two passes for 19 yards in Sunday's 13-7 loss to the Chiefs.
Analysis: After missing five games with a hamstring injury, Valdes-Scantling returned to action Week 9. He was on the field for over half of the 63 plays run by the Packers offense, but his opportunities to contribute were minimal. Valdes-Scantling averaged 5.3 targets in the three games he played prior to his absence, and he -- like all Packers pass catchers -- should benefit when starting quarterback Aaron Rodgers (illness) is back in the fold.

Activated off IR
Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) was activated off injured reserve Saturday and is eligible to play Sunday against the Chiefs.
Analysis: The Packers' receiving core is now back to full strength with Davante Adams and Allen Lazard both returning from the reserve/COVID-19 list, but they'll obviously be without star quarterback Aaron Rodgers, who tested positive for COVID-19 earlier this week. The speedy wide receiver brings a much-needed deep threat to the Packers offense, but it's unclear how different this version of the offense will be with Jordan Love slated to make his first career start.

Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) was designated to return from injured reserve Monday, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling was a game-time decision for Thursday's contest against Arizona but ultimately was unable to suit up. However, he returned to the practice field Monday for the first time since early October. Although Davante Adams (illness) was unable to practice Monday, Allen Lazard (undisclosed) was on the field, signaling that the Packers' receivers are nearing a return to full strength.

Not activated Thursday
The Packers didn't activate Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) from injured reserve ahead of Thursday's game at Arizona, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Green Bay thus will be without three of its top wide receivers, including Davante Adams (illness) and Allen Lazard (undisclosed), both of whom are on the reserve/COVID-19 list.

Headed for game-day decision
Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) is traveling to Arizona for Thursday's game against the Cardinals and hopes to be activated from injured reserve ahead of the contest, Doug Kyed of Pro Football Focus reports.
Analysis: The Packers have until 4 p.m. ET on Thursday to activate Valdes-Scantling from IR. They might have been inclined to wait another week, until Davante Adams and Allen Lazard both landed on the reserve/COVID-19 list. With the team's wideout group severely depleted, Valdes-Scantling is hoping to play in Thursday's game without first completing a practice, and after missing the past three weeks due to a hamstring injury.

Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) has a chance to return from injured reserve for Thursday's game against the Cardinals, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling has missed the last four weeks with a hamstring issue, but he participated in running drills Monday. Packers head coach Matt LaFleur said the 27-year-old will be evaluated Tuesday to see how he feels, but the wideout seems to have a good chance to return to game action this week if he isn't feeling sore. Until Green Bay designates Valdes-Scantling to return from IR, he won't be eligible to join the team for practices.

Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Steelers, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.
Analysis: With Valdes-Scantling sidelined, the Packers offense won't have the element of his speed to take the top off the Steelers defense, though top receiver Davante Adams is no slouch when it comes to making plays downfield, and Allen Lazard is capable of doing so as well. MVS will look to heal up enough to return to the field Week 5 against the Bengals.

Week 4 status to come down to wire
Head coach Matt LaFleur said the Packers will need all week to know whether Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) will be able to suit up Sunday versus the Steelers, Tom Silverstein of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: In the wake of the hamstring injury suffered by Valdes-Scantling late in the Packers' Week 3 win at San Francisco, he was unable to practice Wednesday. He has two more opportunities to get on the field this week, which will be key for the fourth-year wide receiver to put himself in a position to play Week 4. If Valdes-Scantling needs some time off, Allen Lazard and Randall Cobb figure to pick up the slack alongside top wide receiver Davante Adams.

Valdes-Scantling (hamstring) didn't take part in practice Wednesday, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling was merely a spectator, which could indicate the hamstring pull he sustained late in the Packers' Week 3 win at San Francisco may not be severe. In any case, with an absence at practice to begin the week, he's behind the curve in his quest to suit up this Sunday against the Steelers. Valdes-Scantling will have two more chances to practice before that contest.

Hurts hamstring Sunday night
Valdez-Scantling (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against San Francisco.
Analysis: Valdez-Scantling pulled up while running a deep route, but the Packers caught a break when fellow wide receiver Davante Adams returned to the game on the next play after Adams had gone to the medical tent due to a big hit over the middle. Prior to getting hurt, MVS was in the midst of a strong bounce-back performance, with three catches for 59 yards and a touchdown on four targets.

Goose egg in Week 2
Valdes-Scantling was targeted four times but did not make a catch in Monday night's 35-17 win over the Lions.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling had a frustrating outing, but not really through any fault of his own. His first target was broken up along the sideline, then quarterback Aaron Rodgers missed him with a would-be one-yard touchdown later on. Valdes-Scantling subsequently was overthrown by Rodgers on two attempted deep shots in the second half when he had a step on his man. He and Rodgers will hope to get their timing down ahead of Week 3's matchup versus the 49ers.

Contained in Week 1
Valdes-Scantling was targeted seven times and caught three passes for 17 yards in Sunday's 38-3 loss to the Saints.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling led the NFL in yards per reception a season ago, but the Saints prevented him from getting loose for even one big play down the field. On the positive side, Valdes-Scantling did tie Davante Adams for the team lead in targets and was on the field for just four fewer snaps than the Packers' top wideout, so there's reason to believe he can get going Week 2 against the Lions.

Facing challenge for starting job?
Valdes-Scantling will compete with Allen Lazard, Amari Rodgers and Devin Funchess for complementary roles in the Green Bay offense, Wes Hodkiewicz of Packers.com reports.
Analysis: Last year, Valdes-Scantling tied for second on the team with 63 targets, less than half as many as Davante Adams. This year, the speedy wideout could see even fewer looks, as the Packers' improved depth at wide receiver will make it tough for Valdes-Scantling to match last year's snap count (793, 76.3 percent). On the other hand, MVS finished last season strong with a 4-115-1 receiving line in the playoff loss to Tampa, and his 4.37 speed sets him apart from Lazard, Rodgers and Funchess. Any…read more

Valdes-Scantling recorded four receptions on six targets for 115 yards and one touchdown in a 31-26 loss to the Buccaneers in Sunday's NFC Championship Game.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling opened the scoring for the Packers with a 50-yard touchdown reception early in the second quarter. He also connected with Aaron Rodgers for a number of other big gains, including receptions of 29 and 24 yards.

Valdes-Scantling has had his moments this season, and he racked up 85 yards and a score as recently as Week 14.

Analysis: Valdes-Scantling appeared on the injury report as a limited participant Thursday and didn't practice at all Friday, the result of an Achilles concern. Despite the lack of reps to end the week, he'll be available to the Packers offense, but his workload remains to be seen. Davante Adams and Allen Lazard should serve as the team's top two wide receivers, with Valdes-Scantling, Equanimeous St. Brown (knee), Darrius Shepherd and Malik Taylor on hand for any reps that linger.

Questionable after missed practice
Valdes-Scantling (Achilles) was held out of Friday's practice and is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Bears.
Analysis: He was a midweek addition to the injury report, listed as limited in Thursday's practice. If Valdes-Scantling were to miss Sunday's game, Allen Lazard likely would take over as the No. 2 receiver, with Darrius Shepherd, Equanimeous St. Brown (knee) and Malik Taylor providing depth.

Picks up Achilles injury
Valdes-Scantling was limited in practice Thursday due to an Achilles injury, Olivia Reiner of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Making a sudden appearance on the Packers' injury report midweek isn't a great sign for Valdes-Scantling's status, especially considering the nature of the injury. Still, he was one of three Packers receivers -- also, Allen Lazard (core) and Equanimeous St. Brown (knee) -- to be limited Thursday, while Davante Adams (ankle) didn't practice at all. Friday's injury could be telling for the breakdown of Green Bay's receiving corps for Sunday's contest versus the Bears.

Valdes-Scantling did not catch a pass in Sunday's 35-20 victory over the Texans but did have one carry for nine yards.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling played by far the second-most snaps among Packers wideouts and was targeted four times, but he ultimately only ended up with the lone touch on the ground. He should continue seeing the field plenty until Allen Lazard (abdomen) returns, and his next matchup will come against a Vikings team he recorded 96 yards and a score against Week 1. However, with just 91 yards from scrimmage over his last four games, it's tough to trust Valdes-Scantling in fantasy lineups right now.

Valdes-Scantling was targeted five times and caught three passes for 32 yards in Sunday's 38-10 loss to the Buccaneers.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling wound up playing the most snaps among Packers receivers Week 6, but he was held in check by a Tampa team that allowed quarterback Aaron Rodgers to complete just 16 passes before coming out of the game. It's encouraging for Valdes-Scantling's fantasy prospects that he played 84 percent of the offensive snaps for the third straight game, but what isn't so promising are his averages of 2.8 receptions and 36.5 yards per contest -- not to mention zero touchdowns -- since his…read more

Makes four grabs
Valdes-Scantling caught four of eight targets for 45 yards in Monday night's 30-16 win over the Falcons.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling spearheaded Green Bay's receiving corps on a night when top options Davante Adams (hamstring) and Allen Lazard (abdomen) were both sidelined. While their absences enabled Valdes-Scantling to garner a season high in targets, it was tight end Robert Tonyan and tailback Jamaal Williams who paced the Packers in yards, as both came close to 100. Although Valdes-Scantling helped move the sticks here and there, his final output wasn't anything out of the ordinary. Nonetheless, his…read more

Fails to capitalize on opportunity
Valdes-Scantling caught just one of four targets for five yards in Sunday's 37-30 win over the Saints.
Analysis: Davante Adams (hamstring) was unable to suit up for this primetime matchup, opening the door for either Valdes-Scantling or Allen Lazard to grasp the No. 1 wideout role. The latter was able to seize the opportunity, posting a monstrous 6-146-1 line. Aaron Rodgers is looking like his former MVP self again, so there could be enough balls to go around for all three of the Packers' top receivers in most matchups. That said, it has become clear that Valdes-Scantling is third in the pecking order…read more

Three catches as Adams hurts hammy
Valdes-Scantling caught three of seven targets for 64 yards in Sunday's 42-21 win over the Lions.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling was one target and four yards short of Aaron Jones' team-leading totals as No. 1 wide receiver Davante Adams left the game with a hamstring injury. If Adams can't go in Week 3 against the Saints, Valdes-Scantling would be an enticing fantasy option as Aaron Rodgers' top target on the outside.

Scores in season-opening win
Valdes-Scantling secured four of six targets for 96 yards and a touchdown in the Packers' 43-34 win over the Vikings on Sunday.
Analysis: The oft-maligned third-year wideout, who disappeared for long stretches last season, was a surprising beneficiary of a prolific passing day by Aaron Rodgers on Sunday. Valdes-Scantling was a distant second to Davante Adams in both receptions and receiving yards on the Packers, but he locked in a productive fantasy day courtesy of a pretty 45-yard scoring grab with 14 seconds remaining in the first half. The strong start to the season is a welcome sight for Green Bay's third receiver, and he'll…read more

Enters season third on depth chart
The Packers list Valdes-Scantling as their No. 3 receiver on their first unofficial depth chart heading into Sunday's season opener at Minnesota, Matt Schneidman of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Though his chances of cracking a regular role in the Packers' three-receiver formations increased greatly after Devin Funchess opted out of the 2020 season, Valdes-Scantling still had to earn a starting role in training camp. He appears to have done just that, beating out Equanimeous St. Brown and Malik Taylor for the No. 3 job. Even if Valdes-Scantling resumes handling the 60-plus percent snap share he routinely enjoyed in the first half of the 2019 season, he'll still likely be a tertiary…read more

Packers remain hopeful
According to Matt Schneidman of The Athletic, the Packers are "counting on Valdes-Scantling rediscovering his health and confidence" and filling the No. 3 receiver spot on the depth chart.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling got off to a fine start in 2019, tallying 21 receptions, 416 receiving yards and two scores over his first seven games. However, he went dormant after that, tallying just 36 yards the rest of the way while battling lower-leg injuries and losing his spot in the offense. Despite the poor finish, Valdes-Scantling has shown flashes both years he has played in the league, and the Packers are banking on him bouncing back from last season's quiet second half. He will have to earn his…read more

Falls well short of expectations
Valdes-Scantling finished with 26 catches for 452 yards and two touchdowns over 16 regular-season games in 2019.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling started the season as the inherent No. 2 wide receiver behind Davante Adams, and the team expected big things out of the second-year pro after showing flashes of a deep threat in his rookie campaign. The 25-year-old was still good for a few deep balls, recording 17.4 yards per catch, but he slowly saw his playing time drop as the season went on. He posted just four catches for 32 yards over the final eight regular-season games, and he logged just six offensive snaps between two…read more

Catches one pass in victory
Valdes-Scantling was targeted once and had one reception for eight yards in Sunday's divisional round win over the Seahawks.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling appeared to sit fourth on the depth chart at the wide receiver position heading into the playoffs, but he operated as the fifth receiver Sunday and took the field for just five offensive plays.

Targeted seven times in Week 17
Valdes-Scantling was targeted seven times and caught two passes for 19 yards in Sunday's victory over the Lions.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling did not do much in the box score in the season finale, but he did rack up his most receiving yards in a game since Week 7 and was targeted as many times as he was in the previous four games combined. His showing in the regular-season finale slots him into the No. 4 WR spot heading into the postseason.

First reception since Week 12
Valdes-Scantling caught his only target for six yards in Monday's victory over the Vikings.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling caught his first pass since Week 12, but it went for minimal yardage and he was still on the field for just 11 offensive snaps. As has been the case, he remains only a depth option for the Packers at this time.

Snap count declines again
Valdes-Scantling was targeted once but did not catch a pass in Sunday's victory over the Bears.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling played a season-low 10 snaps Week 14 but logged even fewer Week 15, taking the field just five more times after failing to haul in a long pass on the Packers' first offensive play that likely would have resulted in a touchdown. Valdes-Scantling has only two receptions for 11 yards since Week 7, and with him barely seeing the field the last two weeks, there's little reason to expect much of anything from him in the Packers' Week 16 matchup with the Vikings.

Plays season-low 10 snaps
Valdes-Scantling played just 10 snaps and was not targeted in Sunday's victory over Washington.
Analysis: The Packers used their tight ends more often than usual and mainly played three wide receivers Sunday, which resulted in Valdes-Scantling seeing the field less than he had in any other game this season. Valdes-Scantling has now totaled just two receptions for 11 yards since Week 7, which all but eliminates him as a fantasy option Week 15, even against a Bears defense that has been regularly beaten by opposing wide receivers of late.

Held without catch again
Valdes-Scantling was targeted twice but did not catch a pass in Sunday's victory over the Giants.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling finished a distant fourth among Packers receivers in snaps and was held without a reception for the third time in four games. Simply put, there is little reason to expect any help from him in fantasy lineups these days.

Sliding down depth chart
Valdes-Scantling caught one pass for seven yards in Sunday's loss to the 49ers.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling and quarterback Aaron Rodgers nearly connected on a long touchdown in the fourth quarter, but the wide receiver caught the ball out of bounds and ultimately finished Sunday's contest with just one reception. Injuries may have helped explain Valdes-Scantling going two straight games without a catch heading into the Packers' Week 11 bye, but it now seems he simply has fallen down the depth chart, as he finished a distant fourth in snaps among Packers wideouts coming out of the…read more

Shut out for second straight week
Valdes-Scantling was targeted once and did not catch a pass in Sunday's victory over the Panthers.
Analysis: It's not clear just how limited Valdes-Scantling has been by his ankle and knee injuries the last few weeks, but he only played 11 snaps Sunday. Since his big showing in Week 7, he has caught just one pass and has been shut out completely each of the last two weeks. A Week 11 bye will buy Valdes-Scantling some recovery time before the Packers' next game, but coming off back-to-back goose eggs, he's going to be tough to trust in Week 12 against a stingy 49ers defense.

Cleared for Week 10
Valdes-Scantling (ankle/knee) doesn't have a designation for Sunday's game against the Panthers, Rob Demovsky of ESPN.com reports.
Analysis: After kicking off the week with back-to-back limited practice sessions, Valdes-Scantling capped it off with a full showing. While his Week 10 opponent (the Panthers) have allowed wide receivers to post just 7.1 yards per target this season, the unit has otherwise yielded 180 receiving yards per game to the position, making Valdes-Scantling a decent enough play Sunday.

Gets 'limited' tag Thursday
Valdes-Scantling (ankle/knee) was a limited practice participant Thursday, Olivia Reiner of the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports.
Analysis: Since going off for a season-best 133 receiving yards Week 7, Valdes-Scantling has hauled in just one of four targets for four yards over the last two games. He's been tending to ankle and knee injuries during that span, so there is a built-in excuse for his lack of production. No matter, Davante Adams (toe) is back in action, which should begin to free up Valdes-Scantling for deep shots once he gets healthier.

Practice reps capped Wednesday
Valdes-Scantling (ankle/knee) was limited at Wednesday's practice.
Analysis: In Sunday's loss to the Chargers, Valdes-Scantling failed to record a reception for the first time since Week 3 of the 2018 season. Granted, Davante Adams (toe) was back in action, and the Packers mustered just 184 yards of offense, but the output was disappointing, to say the least. Before Valdes-Scantling gets another chance to make an impression on the box score, he'll look to put in a full practice before the end of the week.

Held without catch in Week 9
Valdes-Scantling was targeted twice but did not catch a pass in Sunday's loss to the Chargers.
Analysis: Valdes-Scantling had his best game of the season in the Packers' Week 7 win over the Raiders, but he has been almost invisible since, tallying just one reception for four yards over two games. Despite the nearly non-existent output, Valdes-Scantling still played the second-most snaps among Packers receivers Sunday, and he has started all but one game this season, so there is reason to believe he can get back on track. He and the rest of the Packers' passing game will be challenged again in Week…read more

Enters Week 9 minus designation
Valdes-Scantling (ankle/knee) practiced fully Friday and doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Chargers, Ryan Wood of the Green Bay Press-Gazette reports.
Analysis: After a pair of limited showings in practice to begin the week, Valdes-Scantling erased any concerns about his health by taking every rep in Friday's session. The 25-year-old should again have a role in the Packers' passing game in Week 9, but his snap and target counts could hinge on the potential return of top wideout Davante Adams (toe), who is being viewed as a game-time decision. Even while Adams has been out for the past four games, Valdes-Scantling has been a spotty contributor, catching…read more
