When Will Will Reichard Return and Be Back? Fantasy Football Injury Update for Week 11 (2024)

When will Will Reichard return and play? Will Will Reichard be back again this season? Read the latest Will Reichard injury updates and return date for Week 11 (2024).

Minnesota Vikings rookie kicker Will Reichard has been a reliable option for fantasy managers this season, connecting on 14 of 16 field goal attempts, including four from beyond 50 yards, and staying perfect on extra points with 23 of 23 made.
For much of the season, he was lights out, going 14 for 14 until Week 9, when he missed two kicks against the Colts. It was later revealed that he’d suffered a quad injury in that game, which likely affected his accuracy. Despite his early-season consistency, that injury has now put a hold on his fantasy production.

So, when should we expect Reichard to return from injury and produce for our fantasy football lineups?

 

Will Reichard Injury Update

Reichard was placed on injured reserve following his Week 9 performance, which means he won’t be eligible to return until Week 14. For fantasy managers, that’s a tough blow if you were counting on him for playoff matchups.

His return might bring value back if he’s healthy, but stashing a kicker for several weeks is a difficult call, especially when playoff spots are on the line. At this point, it’s probably best to find a more immediately available option until we get closer to his return.

 

Will Reichard Fantasy Football Outlook

The Vikings offense has been surprisingly productive this season, but they’re still fundamentally a defensive team that relies on grinding out games rather than lighting up the scoreboard. While the offense has its moments, it’s been somewhat inconsistent, especially with quarterback Sam Darnold at the helm.
This defensive-minded approach has kept games close and given Reichard field goal opportunities, but it also means the Vikings aren’t putting up huge scores week after week.


Reichard’s consistency and accuracy make him a promising option for the future, but with him sidelined and the Vikings' offense remaining unpredictable, he’s not worth holding onto in fantasy right now. Even though he came out of Alabama with a strong pedigree, the uncertainty around Darnold’s play and Reichard’s injury status just add too much risk.

Once he’s healthy and back on the field, he might be worth a look if you’re hunting for a reliable kicker, but for now, it’s best to explore other options as we head into the heart of the fantasy season.
