dominated the middle of the Philadelphia defense, and they had no answers for him. He made catch after catch against both linebackers and defensive backs, and eight of his nine receptions went for first downs.
Over the past three weeks, nobody has scored more fantasy points than Reed, who has been a fantasy playoff league-winner. His 5 touchdowns and 333 receiving yards over that span led the position by a good margin.
Reed's +13.30 NEP raised his season-long NEP to put him top five among all tight ends. His 33.90 PPR fantasy points led the position this week and has raised him to the overall second-highest scoring fantasy tight end on the season behind only Rob Gronkowski.
Speaking of Gronk, he ranked right behind Reed among Week 16's top tight ends. He posted a +10.22 NEP this week after hauling in 4 catches for 86 yards. There weren't a lot of difference-makers at the tight end position this week outside of them. Seattle's Cooper Helfet ranked third at the position in Net Expected Points, after catching 4 of 6 targets for 43 yards. Kyle Rudolph and Austin Seferian-Jenkins both hauled in touchdown passes to raise their NEP scores. Owen Daniels bailed out his quarterback several times on Monday Night, picking up 70 yards on just 5 receptions to round out the rest of Week 16's top performers.
