  • Staying in Washington

    Crowder agreed to one-year deal with the Commanders on Wednesday, Josina Anderson of CBS Sports reports.

    Analysis: Crowder spent his first four NFL seasons in Washington from 2015 through 2018 and made his way back to the Commanders last fall. He had one big game in a Week 8 loss to the Eagles but mostly served as a return specialist and depth receiver. Crowder turns 31 in August and may not have a guaranteed roster spot heading into training camp this summer.

  • Finishes year with 16 catches

    Crowder finished the 2023 season with 16 catches for 159 yards and a touchdown on 20 targets and 35 punt returns for 278 yards over 17 gam es.

    Analysis: The 30-year-old slot receiver rejoined his original NFL team -- he was a fourth-round pick of Washington in 2015 -- after a three-year stint with the Jets and four games with the Bills in 2022. He mostly working as a punt returner but also came up with a 7-95-1 receiving line Oct. 29 against the Eagles when injuries thrust him into the lineup on offense. Crowder drew six targets the following week and then only five more the rest of the season. He's scheduled for unrestricted free agency again…read more

  • Playing time takes hit Week 13

    Crowder went without a target while playing five of the Commanders' 55 snaps on offense in Sunday's 45-15 loss to the Dolphins.

    Analysis: Crowder had logged double-digit snaps in four of the Commanders' previous five games while producing a 13-130-1 receiving line on 16 targets, but he dropped to sixth in the pecking order at receiver Sunday with all of Terry McLaurin, Jahan Dotson, Curtis Samuel, Byron Pringle and Dyami Brown seeing more playing time. Though the Commanders could look to work Crowder in more at the expense of either Pringle or Brown coming out of their Week 14 bye, McLaurin, Dotson and Samuel are locked in as…read more

  • Sees two targets

    Crowder caught both of his targets for 12 yards in a 31-19 loss to the Giants on Sunday.

    Analysis: Crowder, Dyami Brown and Byron Pringle each played 25-to-30 percent of snaps, splitting the No. 3 receiver role after Curtis Samuel was ejected for his role in a fight. Crowder had a 7-95-1 receiving line Week 8 against the Eagles but otherwise has just eight catches for 56 yards all year.

  • Targeted once

    Crowder was held without a catch on one target in Sunday's 29-26 loss at Seattle.

    Analysis: Curtis Samuel's return from a foot injury dropped Crowder to 10 percent snap share and meant his main role was returning punts. It'll likely be a similar story Week 11 against the Giants, and there's not much upside for Crowder even if Samuel misses more time down the road, given that Dyami Brown also helped fill the gap during Samuel's recent absence.

  • Catches four passes

    Crowder caught four of six targets for 23 yards in a 20-17 win over the Patriots on Sunday.

    Analysis: Crowder was unable to match his unexpected outburst (7-95-1) from the week prior, though he did play more snaps (47 percent) with Curtis Samuel inactive due to a foot injury. Dyami Brown and Byron Pringle also helped to fill Samuel's shoes, and that may be the case again Week 10 at Seattle if Samuel misses another game.

  • Hits pay dirt in loss

    Crowder secured all seven of his targets for 95 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 38-31 loss to the Eagles.

    Analysis: Crowder played 23 of the Commanders' 72 offensive snaps Sunday after playing nine offensive snaps through the first seven games of the season. The veteran wideout had his best game of the 2023 campaign by far, finding the end zone for the first time and recording season-highs in catches and yards. Despite the solid performance, Crowder remains difficult to trust for consistent fantasy production based on his minimal offensive usage to start the season. Nonetheless, the ninth-year receiver will…read more

  • No snaps on offense Week 7

    Crowder played all three of his snaps on special teams in Sunday's 24-16 win over Atlanta.

    Analysis: After recording his first two catches of the season in the Commanders' Week 5 loss to the Bears, Crowder was phased out on offense Sunday while all of Terry McLaurin, Jahan Dotson, Curtis Samuel, Dyami Brown and Byron Pringle played ahead of him at receiver. Crowder should continue to dress on most game days due to his duties as the Commanders' top punt returner.

  • Joining active roster

    The Commanders plan to sign Crowder to their active roster, Nicki Jhabvala of The Washington Post reports.

    Analysis: Crowder just joined the Commanders' practice squad Wednesday, but with Dax Milne (groin) unable to play Sunday against the Cardinals, the veteran receiver was elevated to the active roster Saturday. He never saw the field on offense, but he did handle punt return duties, gaining 10 yards on three attempts. Now that he's in line to join the 53-man roster, he should maintain that role Sunday against the Broncos.

  • Moves to active roster

    Crowder was elevated from the Commanders' practice squad Saturday.

    Analysis: The veteran wideout is expected to return punts Sunday, with Dax Milne (groin) on injured reserve. Crowder played in just four games with the Bills last season and bounced around a few practice squads before joining the Commanders after preseason cutdowns.

  • Joins Washington's practice squad

    Washington signed Crowder to its practice squad Wednesday.

    Analysis: Crowder reunites with the Commanders, where he began his NFL career as a fourth-round pick back in 2015. He spent time in training camp with the Giants but was limited due to a calf injury before being cut loose last week. A broken ankle limited him to just four games with the Bills last season.

  • Expected to be gone

    The Giants are planning to release Crowder on Tuesday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Crowder hasn't had much luck since departing the Jets, where he was a steady producer for several years. After a broken ankle limited him to just four games with the Bills in 2022, he has spent a portion of the 2023 training camp with the Giants limited by a calf injury. Assuming he does end up being released, the veteran wideout will likely work to pursue a new opportunity.

  • Cleared for camp

    Crowder (calf) will come off the active/non-football injury list Sunday according to head coach Brian Daboll, Pat Leonard of the New York Daily News reports.

    Analysis: Crowder started camp on the NFI list, but he'll now be able to practice with the team. After an injury-plagued 2022 season in Buffalo during which he was limited to four games, Crowder will work to earn a role in the Giants' receiving corps and put together a bounce-back campaign.

  • Starts camp on NFI

    The Giants placed Crowder (calf) on the active/non-football injury list Tuesday, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: This would seem to suggest Crowder injured his calf while away from the team sometime between spring work and the start of training camp. He can be activated at any time. Crowder broke his ankle in Week 4 of last season with the Bills and missed the rest of the year. He inked a one-year deal with the Giants in the offseason and isn't guaranteed a roster spot, so the veteran slot man needs to get healthy.

  • Signing with Giants

    Crowder is slated to sign a one-year deal with the Giants, per Josina Anderson of CBS Sports.

    Analysis: A fractured ankle limited Crowder to just four regular-season games with the Bills in 2022, during which time he recorded six catches for 60 yards. Now that he's presumably past his ankle issues, the 29-year-old will have a chance to compete for slot snaps in the Giants' wide receiver corps.

  • Injury-plagued season

    Crowder was limited to just four regular-season games in 2022 due to a fractured ankle, finishing his first season with the Bills with just six catches for 60 yards and no scores.

    Analysis: Crowder was supposed to fill the slot job for the Bills after Cole Beasley was not brought back, but the former's injury derailed those plans, and Isaiah McKenzie ended up filling the role for most of the season before Beasley returned for the stretch run and ended up being an integral part of the offense again in the postseason. Crowder was on a one-year deal, so he's no sure thing to return even though he seemed to be getting close to full health by the time the Bills reached the playoffs.

  • Won't face Bengals

    Head coach Sean McDermott said Friday that Crowder (ankle) is ruled out for Sunday's divisional-round matchup against Cincinnati, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: McDermott said Crowder is moving in the right direction, but the veteran wideout still will need a bit more time before making his potential return. Crowder resumed practicing last week, just over three months after he suffered a fractured ankle in a Week 4 win. With Isaiah McKenzie having resumed practicing in full, however, the Bills aren't in serious need of additional receiver depth.

  • Status for divisional round TBD

    Head coach Sean McDermott said Monday that he doesn't know if Crowder (ankle) will be available for Sunday's divisional-round matchup against Cincinnati, Sal Capaccio of WGR Sports Radio 550 Buffalo reports.

    Analysis: Crowder was designated to return from injured reserve and practiced last week, but he wasn't added to the active roster ahead of the Bills' wild-card win over Miami. The veteran slot wideout hasn't played since Week 4 due to an ankle fracture, but it appears he's getting close to game action and will have a chance to play in the second round of the playoffs if he can impress at practice, which could be a boost given Isaiah McKenzie's (hamstring) status also is unclear. It's worth noting Cole…read more

    The Bills designated Crowder (ankle) for return from injured reserve Wednesday.

    Analysis: Crowder is thus cleared to resume practicing, just over three months after he suffered a fractured ankle in the Bills' Week 4 win over the Ravens. According to Alaina Getzenberg of ESPN.com, Crowder won't be added to the 53-man roster in advance of Sunday's wild-card game against the Dolphins, but he could be a candidate for activation ahead of the divisional round or AFC Championship Game, should the Bills advance that far.

  • Rehabbing to side in practices

    Crowder (ankle) has been working off to the side during recent Bills practices but has yet to be designated for return from injured reserve, Sal Capaccio of WGR Sports Radio 550 Buffalo reports.

    Analysis: Though he's been sidelined since early October with a fractured ankle, Crowder hasn't been shut down for the season and is still eying a return to the field in late December. The veteran wideout thus looks on track to remain out for the Bills' Week 15 game against the Dolphins, though a return at some point during the final three weeks of the season remains feasible. Buffalo added some potential competition for Crowder and Isaiah McKenzie in the slot role earlier Tuesday, when the Bills coaxed…read more

  • May return before season's end

    Crowder (ankle) said this week that he's targeting a return to action in late December, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports. "It's just all about how I'm feeling at that point and how well the rehab has gone," Crowder noted.

    Analysis: Crowder has been sidelined since breaking his ankle Week 4, which required surgery to insert a plate. He's since been able to resume walking a little less than a month ago and also running on an underwater treadmill for the past two weeks. The next step for Crowder is upgrading to running on an anti-gravity treadmill, with the aim to begin jogging on the field in about "two weeks." The Bills are unlikely to rush him back on the field, especially if they end up landing free-agent wideout Odell…read more

  • Shifts to IR

    Crowder (ankle) was placed on injured reserve Saturday, Matt Parrino of The Syracuse Post-Standard reports.

    Analysis: This doesn't come as much of a surprise considering Crowder broke his ankle. Isaiah McKenzie (concussion) figures to be the biggest beneficiary of the injury provided he's able to play Sunday, but rookie Khalil Shakir could also make an emergence with more opportunities likely on the horizon.

  • Suffers broken ankle

    Crowder suffered a broken ankle during Sunday's win over the Ravens, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Crowder is considered out indefinitely, and he's likely to land on IR in the near future. As long as Crowder remains out of the lineup, Isaiah McKenzie will stand to operate as Buffalo's clear third wideout behind Stefon Diggs and Gabe Davis, while Khalil Shakir could also benefit form increased snaps. Crowder is expected to undergo further tests to diagnose any additional damage.

  • Injures ankle

    Crowder was forced out of Sunday's game against the Ravens with an ankle injury.

    Analysis: Prior to his exit from the contest, Crowder caught one of his four targets for seven yards. In his absence, the Bills' Week 4 wide receiver corps will continue to be led by Stefon Diggs, Gabe Davis and Isaiah McKenzie.

  • Quiet in blowout win

    Crowder caught one of two targets for 16 yards while racking up 41 punt return yards in Monday's 41-7 win over the Titans.

    Analysis: Crowder was quiet in the offensive explosion for the Bills on Monday, failing to capitalize on the absence of Gabe Davis (ankle) in the contest. Through two games, Crowder has garnered a meager six targets and doesn't appear to be filling the same role Cole Beasley did in Buffalo's offense last season. The wide receiver will look to become more involved in Week 3 when the team takes on the Dolphins, who allowed 318 yards in the air to the Ravens last week.

  • In the mix for slot snaps

    As the upcoming season approaches, Crowder is listed behind Isaiah McKenzie on the Bills' posted unofficial depth chart.

    Analysis: Stefon Diggs and Gabriel Davis are the team's clear-cut top options out wide, but the slot role previously handled by Cole Beasley figures to be largely handled by some combo of McKenzie and Crowder. With McKenzie having been touted this summer as the favorite to claim the biggest portion of the team's slot assignment, Crowder may not have a path to steady targets out the gate this season, but if injuries hit the Bills' receiving corps, the 29-year-old could well find himself back on the PPR…read more

  • Targeted once in preseason opener

    Crowder was targeted once but did not record a reception in Saturday's 27-24 preseason win over the Colts.

    Analysis: Crowder had a relatively prominent role in the game with Stefon Diggs, Gabriel Davis and Isaiah McKenzie all held out of the game. Crowder's lone target was picked off, an inauspicious start to his tenure with Buffalo. It also appears that Crowder is buried on the depth chart, so he may not be on the field regularly in Week 1, and we suppose he has an outside chance of getting cut.

  • Has good practice Monday

    Crowder turned in a strong showing at Monday's practice, Joe Buscaglia of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Crowder and Isaiah McKenzie -- who missed Monday's session due to soreness -- are in the mix to claim the slot role previously handled by Cole Beasley. While Buscaglia suggests that Crowder "is still likely behind McKenzie because of the Bills' explosive potential with McKenzie in the lineup," we suspect that the steady Crowder still can make a push for the role as the summer rolls along if he can stay healthy and continue to make plays in practice.

    Crowder, who had been dealing with what coach Sean McDermott referred to as "soreness" and "tightness," will practice Monday, Chris Brown of the Bills' official site reports.

    Analysis: Now that Crowder is in line to resume practicing, he'll look to secure a role in the Bills' wide receiver corps, which is slated to feature Stefon Diggs and Gabriel Davis out wide, with Crowder and Isaiah McKenzie in the mix to handle slot duties and 2022 fifth-rounder Khalil Shakir also contending for snaps.

    Analysis: Coach Sean McDermott considers Crowder "day-to-day." The veteran slot specialist has now missed two consecutive practices, but there's not yet any indication that he's dealing with a potential long-term issue. As long as Crowder remains sidelined it will mean increased opportunities for other wideouts to handle reps behind Stefon Diggs and Gabriel Davis, including Isaiah McKenzie and rookie fifth-round pick Khalil Shakir.

    The Bills and Crowder agreed to a one-year contract Monday, Josina Anderson of CBS Sports reports.

    Analysis: Buffalo has found its replacement at slot receiver after cutting loose Cole Beasley last week. Crowder had a down year for his standards in 2021, missing five games due to injury and finishing with a 51-447-2 line on 71 targets. With the upgrade in quarterback from Zach Wilson to Josh Allen, Crowder could be in line for a rebound as he joins forces with Stefon Diggs and Gabriel Davis at wide receiver.

    Analysis: The soon-to-be 29-year-old inked a three-year, $28.5 million deal with the Jets back in 2019, but the veteran slot receiver's role on offense has since dwindled following the emergence of Elijah Moore. Crowder posted his least productive season with New York across 12 appearances in 2021, with just 447 receiving yards and two touchdowns. Soft tissue issues sidelined Crowder for five games last year, including a calf injury that forced him out of the season finale, but it looks like he will be…read more

  • Exits Sunday's game

    Crowder won't return to Sunday's game against the Bills due to a calf injury.

    Analysis: Crowder, who likely aggravated the calf issue that sidelined him in Weeks 16 and 17, finishes the day with one catch for 16 yards on his only target. In his absence, Keelan Cole, Jeff Smith and Denzel Mims will head the Jets' wideout corps versus Buffalo. Crowder thus finishes the season with 51 catches for 447 yards and two TDs in 12 games, with Rich Cimini of ESPN.com suggesting that the free agent to be isn't expected back with the team in 2022.

    Crowder (calf) doesn't have an injury designation for Sunday's game against the Bills, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Coach Robert Saleh said Friday morning Crowder's outlook was "looking good" for Sunday, and the lack of an injury designation reinforces that sentiment. The 28-year-old should operate as the Jets' top option in the passing game out of the slot this weekend with Braxton Berrios (quadriceps) out and Elijah Moore (quadriceps/illness) unlikely to return from the reserve list.

    Coach Robert Saleh said Crowder (calf) is "looking good" to play Sunday against the Bills, Connor Hughes of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Elijah Moore (quadriceps/illness) isn't expected to return from the reserve list and Braxton Berrios (quadriceps) appears unlikely to play Sunday, so Crowder could be heavily involved if cleared to return from his two-game absence. Crowder should dominate work out of the slot and could be the No. 1 option in the passing game if able to play Week 18.

    Analysis: While Crowder is back on the practice field after missing two straight games with a calf injury, fellow slot receiver Braxton Berrios (quad) is absent to start the week. How the snaps and targets are divided between the two will be an interesting development to track if both are cleared to play Sunday against the Bills, though the Jets already have some packages in place to get Crowder and Berrios on the field together.

It's not yet clear whether he'll have any limitations Wednesday, but any participation in practice is encouraging for his chances of returning for Sunday's season finale versus the Bills.

  • Not suiting up Sunday

    Crowder (calf) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Crowder carried a doubtful tag into the weekend after failing to practice all week, so his inactive status is of little surprise. In the veteran's Week 16 absence versus the Jaguars, Braxton Berrios (5-37) and tight end Tyler Kroft (3-29) were the top two targets for Zach Wilson, but the absences of both Kroft and Ryan Griffin due to COVID-19 could lead to more targets for the likes of Crowder's fellow wideouts Keelan Cole and Denzel Mims.

    Crowder (calf) is officially listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: With Elijah Moore (quadriceps) not available for Week 17 after landing on the reserve/COVID-19 list and with Crowder trending toward inactive status, Braxton Berrios, Keelan Cole and Denzel Mims look on track to serve as the Jets' starting receivers.

    Coach Robert Saleh said Crowder (calf) will be listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers.

    Analysis: Crowder has been unable to practice this week, and it appears he'll also be sidelined for Friday's session. The 28-year-old missed last week's win over Jacksonville and is now also expected to be sidelined for Week 17.

  • Misses yet another practice

    Crowder (calf) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN reports.

    Analysis: Crowder didn't practice at all last week before ultimately sitting out against the Jaguars, and it doesn't seem like he's significantly closer to returning for Sunday's game against the Buccaneers. While Crowder's outlook could still turn around if he's able to practice in some capacity Friday, fantasy managers should start looking for alternatives to the veteran slot receiver.

  • Not practicing Wednesday

    Crowder (calf) won't practice Wednesday, Eric Allen of the Jets' official site reports.

    Analysis: Per Rich Cimini of ESPN.com, head coach Robert Saleh said Crowder has about a 50-50 chance to return to action Sunday against the Buccaneers. Meanwhile, fellow wideout Elijah Moore (quadriceps) faces similar odds to return from both the reserve/COVID-19 list and injured reserve ahead of the Week 17 matchup. The statuses of both receivers will likely hinge on what either is able to do in practice over the next two days.

  • Inactive Sunday

    Crowder (calf) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Jaguars.

    Analysis: Crowder was considered doubtful after sitting out practice this week, so it's no surprise he's sitting out Sunday. Braxton Berrios should step up as New York's primary slot wideout, while Keelan Cole and Denzel Mims operate as the top two receivers.

  • Doubtful for Sunday

    Crowder (calf) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Jaguars, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.

    Analysis: Crowder didn't practice all week and isn't likely to play, though coach Robert Saleh said Friday that he viewed the slot receiver as a game-time decision, Eric Allen of the Jets' official site. Braxton Berrios figures to step up as the primary slot man, and while he's done well with his limited opportunities the past two years, he still faces the same problems as Crowder when it comes to team context and QB play.

    Crowder (calf) remained sidelined at practice Thursday, Al Iannazzone of Newsday Sports reports.

    Analysis: As if the Jets weren't already missing enough players due to injury and illness, Crowder's availability for Sunday's game against Jacksonville is in doubt after consecutive missed practices to open the week. The slot receiver will likely need to practice in some capacity Friday to have a shot at suiting up against the Jaguars.

  • Absent with calf injury

    Crowder missed Wednesday's practice with a calf injury, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: It's a new issue for the veteran slot receiver, who has dealt with more than his fair share of lower-body injuries over the year. Crowder has been healthy of late, however, with his poor numbers at least partially caused by New York's dreadful QB play. An absence from this Sunday's game against Jacksonville would leave more snaps and targets for backup slot Braxton Berrios.

  • Five catches in Week 15 loss

    Crowder caught five of eight targets for 40 yards in Sunday's 31-24 loss to Miami.

    Analysis: Crowder's the most established option left in the injury-riddled Jets receiving corps, and he looked the part in this one, leading the team in targets, catches and receiving yards. He'll remain an integral part of the game plan in Week 16 against the Jaguars, who now have the worst record in the league at 2-12.

    Crowder caught three of six targets for 19 yards in Sunday's 30-9 loss to the Saints.

    Analysis: Crowder didn't step up in the absence of Corey Davis (groin) and Elijah Moore (quadriceps), instead watching Braxton Berrios lead the team with six catches for 52 yards on 10 targets. The veteran slot receiver will look to bounce back in Week 15 against the Dolphins, whom he burned for 44 yards and a touchdown in Week 11.

  • Tallies four receptions

    Crowder recorded four receptions on six targets for 62 yards in Sunday's 33-18 loss to the Eagles.

    Analysis: After recording only one target on one reception in Week 12, Crowder rebounded to finish second on the team in targets, receptions and yards against the Eagles. He likely benefited from Corey Davis being hobbled, as Davis left late in the game after apparently aggravating his groin injury. Crowder has now recorded at least four receptions in seven of his nine games this season, giving him a relatively safe floor of production regardless of who works as the team's quarterback.

  • One catch in Wilson's return

    Crowder caught his only target for five yards in Sunday's 21-14 win over Houston.

    Analysis: Zach Wilson threw for only 145 yards in his return from a knee injury, and the rookie quarterback looked Crowder's way just once on 24 pass attempts. Wilson's lack of quick decision-making and inaccuracy on shorter passes don't mesh well with Crowder's underneath routes out of the slot, but the rookie quarterback's working on correcting those weaknesses ahead of a Week 13 matchup with the Eagles.

    Analysis: Crowder got wide open near the front of the end zone for a two-yard, fourth-down touchdown to score the Jets' first points. He finished second on the team in targets, catches and receiving yards, trailing only Elijah Moore, who added to his recent breakout with eight catches for 141 yards and a touchdown on 11 targets.

    Crowder caught three of six targets for 20 yards in Sunday's 45-17 loss to Buffalo.

    Analysis: Crowder was far from the only Jet to struggle in this one, as New York trailed 38-3 through three quarters. The offense found more success in the fourth, but the Jets rightfully prioritized developing rookies Michael Carter and Elijah Moore, who each scored a touchdown, rather than the 28-year-old Crowder. With more than 40 receiving yards in just two of six games played this season, Crowder will be tough to trust in Week 11 against Miami, regardless of which quarterback gets the starting nod…read more

    Analysis: Crowder got open underneath but failed to produce any big plays Thursday, with his longest gain going for 12 yards. He spent most of the night catching passes from third-string quarterback Josh Johnson, who replaced the injured Mike White (forearm) in the first half.

    Analysis: Crowder was New York's top available wide receiver with Corey Davis (hip) out, and backup quarterback Mike White targeted him frequently, as Crowder finished second behind running back Michael Carter in targets, catches and receiving yards. The slot receiver's longest gain of the game went for 26 yards, but the ball came out at the end and was recovered by Cincinnati's defense.

  • Four catches as Wilson goes down

    Crowder caught four of six targets for 34 yards in Sunday's 54-13 loss to the Patriots.

    Analysis: Crowder saw modest usage in a game that starting quarterback Zach Wilson left in the second quarter due to a knee injury. Whether it's Wilson or backup Mike White under center Week 8 against the Bengals, Crowder should maintain a significant role in New York's passing game, albeit as an underneath option rather than a downfield threat.

  • Held to 24 yards in London

    Crowder caught four of six targets for 24 yards and added a two-point conversion in Sunday's 27-20 loss to Atlanta.

    Analysis: Crowder trailed only Corey Davis (four catches for 45 yards on seven targets) in targets, and they shared the team lead in receptions. They are the two main weapons in the Jets' passing game, but quarterback Zach Wilson failed to reach the 200-yard passing mark in this one, so Crowder's prominent role doesn't automatically equate to fantasy success. Crowder and the Jets will be on bye Week 6 as they travel back stateside following this loss in London.

    Analysis: Crowder made a major impact in his season debut, which coincided with the Jets' first win of the campaign. The veteran slot receiver paced the team in both catches and targets, immediately establishing a rapport with rookie quarterback Zach Wilson. Crowder's biggest contributions came on the Jets' game-tying drive early in the fourth quarter, when he hauled in a 29-yard pass to get down to the five-yard line before scoring from three yards out two plays later.

Schefter's report echoes several others earlier in the week that suggested Crowder is on track to play. With Elijah Moore (concussion) ruled out for the team's Week 4 contest, Crowder should handle his typical slot role and could quickly become a favorite target of rookie quarterback Zach Wilson.

    Analysis: Head coach Robert Saleh previously noted that Crowder -- who didn't practice last week -- is trending toward a return to action Sunday against the Titans.

    Analysis: Crowder will miss practice for the rest of the week, putting his availability in doubt for the Jets' Sept. 12 season opener at Carolina. While general manager Joe Douglas doesn't believe the current issue is serious, Crowder has a noteworthy history of upper-leg injuries, including two missed games last October with a groin issue. Any missed time this season would free up snaps and targets for Elijah Moore, Keelan Cole and/or Braxton Berrios, all of whom are potential options in the slot.…read more

  • Not practicing Wednesday

    Crowder isn't present at Wednesday's practice, Connor Hughes of The Athletic reports.

    Analysis: Crowder hasn't been listed among the Jets' injured players of late, making his absence Wednesday somewhat notable. Of course, the 28-year-old wideout could simply be dealing with a personal matter or a minor injury. With teams around the league also tinkering with initial 53-man rosters, and rookie second-round pick Elijah Moore competing for slot reps, Crowder could still be a trade candidate.

  • Mans usual spot in slot

    Crowder caught his only target for four yards in Saturday's 12-7 preseason win over the Giants.

    Analysis: Crowder made the catch on the Jets' second drive, then had an eight-yard grab on the next play negated by a pass interference penalty on teammate Keelan Cole. The veteran slot receiver worked with the starters here, though Crowder likely will yield some snaps to rookie Elijah Moore (quadriceps) once the latter heals up. Crowder and the rest of the starters should see more action Week 2 of preseason against the Packers.

  • Working with starters

    Crowder, Corey Davis and Keelan Cole handled most of the first-team reps at wide receiver Wednesday during the first practice of Jets training camp, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.

    Analysis: The Jets have five players in the mix for top-three roles, with Crowder, Davis and Cole joined by 2020 second-round pick Denzel Mims and 2021 second-rounder Elijah Moore. The rookie is the biggest threat to Crowder's playing time in the slot, though Cole got plenty of work inside during his time with the Jaguars, particularly last year. While there were rumors Crowder would be released after the Jets drafted Moore, the 28-year-old slot man ended up renegotiating his contract to stick around.…read more

  • Gets deal reworked

    Crowder has agreed to a renegotiated contract ahead of the 2021 season, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Crowder's new deal won't prevent him from exploring free agency next offseason, but it at least will change the structure of the final year of his deal, likely to create some cap space for the Jets. He finished out 2020 with 59 catches for 699 yards and six touchdowns over 12 games, which potentially paced him for the best season of his career over a full season, but he'll head into 2021 needing to develop a rapport with rookie quarterback Zach Wilson.

  • Will face competition for slot role

    Crowder will face competition for the slot receiver role from Elijah Moore, who the Jets selected 34th overall in the 2021 Draft, Tyler Calvaruso of USA Today reports.

    Analysis: Crowder was the Jets' biggest threat in the passing game last season, but the team didn't hesitate to add another playmaker at his position with Moore still available early in the second round. Moore played primarily in the slot at Ole Miss. The team still could opt to cut or trade Crowder before the season and now has an obvious replacement should such a scenario unfold, but GM Joe Douglas said after picking Moore that the team has no plans to move on from Crowder at this time.

  • Potential offseason cut

    The Jets can save $10 million in cap space if Crowder is traded or released, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: There's no question Crowder has been the team's best offensive weapon since he signed a three-year, $28.5 million contract during the 2019 offseason. The Jets certainly have enough cap space to keep him, but they might decide the $10 million could be better spent elsewhere or rolled over to next season.

  • Team's leading receiver in 2020

    Crowder caught all four of his targets for 31 yards in Sunday's season-ending 28-14 loss to New England.

    Analysis: Crowder caught every ball thrown his way but didn't get much attention from struggling quarterback Sam Darnold. Despite missing four games due to injuries, Crowder still finishes the season as New York's leader in catches (59), receiving yards (699) and touchdowns (six). The standout slot receiver could be the beneficiary of an offseason quarterback upgrade, as the Jets are expected to select a new signal-caller with the second overall pick in the upcoming draft.

  • TDs as passer and receiver in win

    Crowder caught seven of nine targets for 92 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 23-16 win over the Browns. He also threw a 43-yard touchdown and rushed once for 14 yards.

    Analysis: Crowder was the beneficiary of some creative play calling. He threw a dime down the sideline to Braxton Berrios on a trick play for a 43-yard touchdown late in the first quarter, then gained 14 yards on a Jet sweep to open New York's next drive. The slot receiver caught a 30-yard touchdown of his own in the third quarter, helping propel New York to its second consecutive win following an 0-13 start.

    Crowder (calf/thigh) practiced fully Thursday, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: As did Denzel Mims (foot), which sets the stage for the duo to be available Sunday against the Browns alongside fellow wide receiver Breshad Perriman. In this past Sunday's 23-20 upset win over the Rams, Crowder made his mark in PPR formats by catching six of his eight targets for 66 yards. Barring any in-game setbacks, he'll once again be a focal part of the Jets' passing attack Week 16.

    Crowder (calf/thigh) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice.

    Analysis: Crowder has battled soft-tissue injuries all season, and he's now apparently battling a thigh injury in addition to the calf issue he's been playing through in recent weeks. As has been the case numerous times this season, Crowder's status for Sunday's game against the Browns may not be decided until shortly before kickoff.

  • Leading receiver in upset win

    Crowder caught six of eight targets for 66 yards in Sunday's 23-20 upset of the Rams.

    Analysis: It wasn't a particularly impressive line, but Crowder led the Jets in receiving en route to the team's first win of the season. Injuries will prevent the sixth-year receiver from topping the personal best of 847 receiving yards he compiled for Washington in 2016, but on a per-game basis, Crowder is still putting together the best campaign of his career.

While playing at less than 100 percent in last week's loss to the Seahawks, Crowder's production dipped, as he finished with just two catches (on four targets) for a season-low seven yards.

    Analysis: Crowder came out of the Jets' Week 14 loss to the Seahawks with injuries to both of his calves, resulting in him sitting out Wednesday's practice. The wideout's ability to increase his activity Thursday is a promising sign, but he'll likely need to upgrade to full participation Friday to avoid a designation heading into Sunday's game against the Rams.

    Analysis: On the plus side, Jets head coach Adam Gase said he's optimistic that the wide receiver will return to practice in some capacity Thursday, which would likely put Crowder on track to play Sunday against the Rams.

His participation level in practice this week should provide some insight into Crowder's health heading into a Week 15 matchup against the Rams.

    Analysis: Crowder, who injured a calf muscle early in Wednesday's practice and was unable to practice Friday, is in uniform, but it's unclear how close to 100 percent he'll be. If he's limited at all, Braxton Berrios would be in line for added slot opportunities alongside Breshad Perriman, while wideout Denzel Mims (non-injury) is unavailable Sunday.

    Crowder (calf) was unable to practice Friday, and while he remains questionable for Sunday's game against Seattle, Friday's absence puts him in danger of sitting out, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Crowder appears to have picked up the injury in Thursday's practice, and it's not a good sign that it kept him out entirely Friday. Braxton Berrios has seen a major uptick in usage whenever the starting slot receiver has sat out previously this season, and that's likely to be the case once more against the vulnerable Seattle secondary if Crowder is unable to play Sunday.

    Analysis: The 27-year-old was added to the injury report with the calf issue Thursday, though he still practiced as a limited participant. Denzel Mims (personal) already has been ruled out for Sunday and Breshad Perriman (shoulder) is also banged up, so the Jets' receiving corps could be in dire straits this weekend.

    Analysis: Crowder hadn't found the end zone since Week 9 but scored touchdowns of three and six yards in the first half against Las Vegas to bring his season total to five. The slot receiver is Sam Darnold's favorite target and has a favorable Week 14 matchup on tap against the vulnerable Seahawks secondary, but Darnold's 5:9 TD:INT in eight appearances this season makes it hard to get too confident about anybody in the winless Jets offense.

  • Three catches as offense sputters

    Analysis: New York has emphasized pushing the ball downfield to Breshad Perriman and Denzel Mims on the outside rather than looking for Crowder in the slot in recent weeks, and that was the approach in this one, even with Sam Darnold (shoulder) back under center over Joe Flacco. Crowder caught at least seven passes in each of his first four games this season but hasn't surpassed three catches in any of his three appearances since.

The slot receiver will hope to bounce back against the Dolphins in Week 12, though it's still unclear at this point if he'll be catching passes from Flacco or Sam Darnold (shoulder).

The wideout impressively dragged his feet while hauling in a 20-yard touchdown pass from Joe Flacco alongside the sideline of the end zone, sending the Jets into halftime on a high.

  • Tops century mark in loss

    Crowder caught eight of 10 targets for 116 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 30-10 loss to the Cardinals.

    Analysis: The 27-year-old has now topped 100 yards in all three games he's been healthy enough to play in, and he has done so while catching passes from two different quarterbacks to boot as Joe Flacco stepped in for Sam Darnold (shoulder) on Sunday. Whichever QB is under center against the Chargers in Week 6, expect Crowder to see heavy volume again as the only reliable target the Jets have in their lineup right now.

  • Big game in return

    Crowder (hamstring) secured seven of 10 targets for 104 yards in the Jets' 37-28 loss to the Broncos on Thursday.

    Analysis: Crowder made an immediate impact upon his return to action from a two-game absence, co-leading the Jets in receptions while pacing the team in receiving yards and targets. The one blemish on the veteran's night was that he couldn't get into the end zone, but his chemistry with quarterback Sam Darnold was otherwise on full display. With Crowder seemingly back at full health, he and Darnold will look to connect even more frequently in a Week 5 home matchup against the Cardinals on Sunday, Oct. 11.

  • Returning to action Thursday

    Crowder (hamstring) is active for Thursday's game against the Broncos, Randy Lange of the Jets' official site reports.

    Analysis: Crowder missed the past two games due to a hamstring issue, but after practicing in a limited fashion all week Sam Darnold's favorite target from last season is back in action. In Week 1, Crowder received a whopping 13 targets, which translated to seven catches for 115 yards and one touchdown. He'll look to replicate that line versus a Denver defense that has allowed 8.5 YPT and five touchdowns to wide receivers through three contests.

  • In line to suit up

    Crowder (hamstring) is expected to play Thursday night against Denver, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.

    Analysis: Crowder's official status will still need to be confirmed prior to the Jets' 8:20 p.m. EST kickoff, as the report admits the wideout still isn't quite 100 percent. His prospective return would be a major boost to the position group, as Breshad Perriman (ankle) has already been ruled out, and Chris Hogan (ribs/knee) carries a "questionable" tag into the contest. Despite the injury risk, as well as being part of what's been an abysmal offense this year, Crowder's matchup otherwise plays well on…read more

  • Questionable for Thursday

    Crowder (hamstring) is officially listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Broncos.

    Analysis: Crowder logged limited practices at every session this week, resulting in him carrying the designation into the Week 4 contest. On a positive note, Adam Gase said Tuesday that he anticipated Crowder would be available Thursday, so the shifty slot receiver may be closer to probable than questionable. In his lone outing of the season back in Week 1, Crowder caught seven balls for 115 yards and a touchdown in a loss to the Bills.

  • Trending up for Week 4

    Jets head coach Adam Gase said that Crowder (hamstring) will be listed as a limited participant on Tuesday's injury report, but the wideout is expected to be available for Thursday's game against the Broncos, Andy Vasquez of The Bergen Record reports.

    Analysis: Crowder may end up carrying a questionable designation into the Week 4 matchup if he's unable to graduate to full participation in Wednesday's practice, but he looks to be trending toward a return to the New York lineup after missing the previous two contests. With Breshad Perriman (ankle) already being ruled out for Thursday, Crowder would profile as quarterback Sam Darnold's clear-cut top option in the passing game. Before being diagnosed with the hamstring injury, Crowder had a productive…read more

    Analysis: Fellow wide receiver Breshad Perriman (ankle) won't play Thursday, but Crowder has a chance to return after missing the Jets' last two games. On the Jets' Monday practice estimate, Crowder was listed as a limited participant.

    Coach Adam Gase has ruled Crowder (hamstring) out for Sunday's game against the Colts, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.

    Analysis: Crowder will miss his second straight contest due to a lingering hamstring injury, and he'll face a quick turnaround to get healthy for Week 4 with a Thursday night contest against the Broncos on deck. With Breshad Perriman (ankle) also unavailable against Indianapolis, and Le'Veon Bell (hamstring) still on IR, it looks like the Jets' receiving corps will be led by Chris Hogan (ribs) and Braxton Berrios on Sunday.

    Crowder (hamstring) won't practice Thursday, Ethan B. Greenberg of the Jets' official site reports.

    Analysis: Meanwhile, coach Adam Gase indicated it's "doubtful" that Crowder will play against the Colts on Sunday. Breshad Perriman (ankle) is also trending toward a Week 3 absence, which sets the stage for Chris Hogan (ribs) and Braxton Berrios to head the team's wide receiver corps this weekend.

    Analysis: Cimini also points out that Crowder still isn't running seven days since injuring his hamstring, and head coach Adam Gase remains non-committal on the slot receiver's status for Sunday's game against the Colts. The injury-riddled Jets offense could use all the help it can get with starting running back Le'Veon Bell (hamstring) on injured reserve and outside receiver Breshad Perriman (ankle) looking doubtful for Week 3.

  • Expected to avoid IR stint

    Crowder (hamstring) is not expected to land on IR, per coach Adam Gase, who is cautiously optimistic that the receiver isn't dealing with a long-term injury, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Take this news with a grain of salt, as we're talking about the same Gase who put star running back Le'Veon Bell back into the second half of a Week 1 contest in which Bell hurt his hamstring in the first half. Now Bell is on IR, but it looks for the moment like Crowder won't suffer the same fate. Still, the team's leading receiver has already been ruled out for Sunday's game against the 49ers.

  • Will not play Week 2

    Crowder (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Al Iannazzone of Newsday reports.

    Analysis: Crowder had a big Week 1, seeing 13 passes in his direction and tallying seven receptions, 115 yards and a score, but he will not be available for either the Jets or fantasy players Week 2 after aggravating his leg injury. Per Eric Allen of the Jets' official site, Braxton Berrios will work as the team's slot receiver in Crowder's place; and per Rich Cimini of ESPN.com, head coach Adam Gase is hopeful this will not be a long-term issue for Crowder.

With the downgrade from limited participation Wednesday to non-participation Thursday, Crowder's status for Sunday's game against the 49ers will now need to be closely monitored.

  • Limited in practice Wednesday

    Crowder (hamstring) was a limited participant in Wednesday's practice, Rich Cimini of ESPN.com reports.

    Analysis: Crowder was also listed with a hamstring injury last week but logged a full slate of practices, so Wednesday's limited session stands out as something to monitor. He'll have two more opportunities to increase his level of activity ahead of Sunday's game against the 49ers. With Le'Veon Bell (hamstring) on IR for at least three weeks, Crowder could be in line to see an uptick in targets, but opposing defenses may also now be free to focus on shutting him down.

  • Leads offense in Week 1 loss

    Crowder caught seven of 13 targets for 115 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Bills.

    Analysis: Crowder made a few men miss and was off to the races for a 69-yard touchdown, which cut New York's deficit to 11 in the third quarter. Besides that chunk play, the shifty slot receiver saw a steady diet of short passes, and his 13 targets were more than the Jets' next two most-targeted players combined (Chris Herndon - seven, Breshad Perriman - five). Running back Le'Veon Bell suffered a hamstring injury, so the sturdy 49ers defense will likely key on Crowder in Week 2 if Bell's unable to play…read more

  • Practices despite hamstring injury

    Crowder (hamstring) practiced fully Wednesday, Brian Costello of the New York Post reports.

    Analysis: Costello believes the hamstring issue is also what caused Crowder to be pulled from practice last week. Given his full participation in the Jets' first official session of Week 1, Crowder should be out there Sunday in Buffalo, even though he might not be operating at 100 percent.

    Crowder left Tuesday's practice early with muscle tightness, Ralph Vacchiano of SportsNet New York reports.

    Analysis: The same goes for fellow wide receivers Chris Hogan and Braxton Berrios, along with tight end Chris Herndon. There's been plenty of talk that the Jets' rash of injuries could lead to Crowder seeing huge target counts, but it now seems he's part of the lengthy medical list. The initial update from coach Adam Gase doesn't seem to suggest Crowder is seriously injured.

  • Set for prominent role

    Crowder is the most established member of New York's thin receiving corps heading into the 2020 season, Chris Ryan of NJ.com reports.

    Analysis: The rest of New York's depth chart consists of journeymen and unproven youngsters, as offseason signing Breshad Perriman is the most prominent receiver on the team outside of Crowder. The slot receiver caught 78 passes his first season with the Jets, and Crowder is poised to see heavy volume from quarterback Sam Darnold again in 2020 given the dearth of alternatives in the passing game.

It was his sixth touchdown of the season, with all of that scoring coming in the final nine weeks. He dressed for all 16 games after signing a three-year deal with the Jets this past offseason, finishing with a career-high 78 catches despite missing starting quarterback Sam Darnold for three games.

    Analysis: Crowder came back down to earth after last week's 90-yard, two-touchdown effort against the Ravens, but he still led the Jets in receiving yards here. The slot receiver has topped 60 yards in five of his past eight games, building some momentum in the second half of the season ahead of the Week 17 finale in Buffalo.

    Crowder secured six of 11 targets for 90 yards and two touchdowns in the Jets' 42-21 loss to the Ravens on Thursday.

    Analysis: Crowder paced the Jets in receptions, receiving yardage and touchdown catches, putting together a very timely fantasy-friendly performance after a disappointing three-game stretch during which he logged just seven receptions for 55 yards and no touchdowns. Crowder will look to continue his resurgence against the Steelers' tough secondary in a Week 16 matchup, a week from Sunday.

  • Quiet in last three weeks

    Crowder caught three of seven targets for 30 yards in Sunday's 22-21 win over Miami.

    Analysis: Crowder has faded back into obscurity after three consecutive games with over 75 yards and a touchdown, totaling seven catches for 56 yards in three games since. His floor is higher in PPR formats, but Crowder will be tough to trust regardless of format against the Ravens in Week 15.

  • Little to show for nine targets

    Crowder caught just two of nine targets for eight yards in Sunday's 22-6 loss to the Bengals.

    Analysis: Crowder and quarterback Sam Darnold couldn't get on the same page in this one, as the slot receiver failed to crack double-digit receiving yards for the first time as a member of the Jets. His nine targets suggest that Crowder remains an integral part of the offense, and he'll have a nice opportunity to get back on track against the beatable Dolphins secondary in Week 14.

    Crowder caught two of four targets for 18 yards in Sunday's 34-3 win over Oakland.

    Analysis: Crowder came into this one riding a three-game touchdown streak, but he wasn't heavily involved in the game plan this time around. While the slot receiver remains a player who should be universally owned with quarterback Sam Darnold finding his game in recent weeks, this game proved that the Jets can get by just fine offensively while emphasizing their other weapons. Up next is a Week 13 trip to Cincinnati to face the 0-11 Bengals.

As usual, many of his receptions came only a short distance from the line of scrimmage, though he did score his touchdown from 29 yards away on a wheel route early in the fourth quarter. Crowder has turned into one of Sam Darnold's favorite targets, racking up at least 76 yards and a touchdown in each of his past three games.

    Analysis: Don't look now, but Crowder's heating up just in time for a revenge game against his former team. The former Redskins slot receiver has eclipsed 80 yards with a touchdown in each of the past two games, and he'll be motivated to keep rolling when the Jets travel to Washington in Week 11.

He capped the opening drive with a 12-yard touchdown and eclipsed 80 yards for just the third time this season.
