Byrd caught 13 of 23 targets for 268 yards and two touchdowns across 14 appearances during the 2022 campaign.
What it means:
From Weeks 7 through 11, Byrd caught nine of 14 targets for 229 yards and two touchdowns, displaying major big-play ability. However, he saw two or fewer targets in his other nine appearances and was held without a catch in five of those games. The veteran wideout has played for five different teams in as many campaigns and will be a free agent again this offseason.
Byrd caught one of two targets for 12 yards during Sunday's 20-19 victory over the Cardinals.
What it means:
Byrd played the third most snaps among Atlanta's wideouts, but he didn't garner his first target until the second half, when he recorded a 12-yard reception on a second-and-10 play in the third quarter. With Desmond Ridder at the helm, Byrd has caught just two of five targets for 27 yards. The veteran wideout secured nine of 14 targets for 229 yards and two touchdown from Week 7 through Week 11, but aside from that five-game stretch, Byrd has been mostly irrelevant in most fantasy leagues.
Byrd caught his only target for 12 yards during Sunday's 19-16 loss against Pittsburgh.
What it means:
Byrd's lone catch went for 12 yards on a third-and-20 play in the first quarter. From Week 7 to 11, the wideout caught nine passes for 229 yards and two scores, but in his other five appearances this season, he's secured just one of three targets for 12 yards. Byrd's firmly supplanted behind Drake London and Olamide Zaccheaus on the depth chart and should remain on waivers in standard fantasy leagues.
Byrd gathered in both of his two targets for 29 yards during Sunday's 27-24 win versus Chicago.
What it means:
Byrd finished second on the team in receiving yards behind Kyle Pitts and has totaled nine receptions on 14 targets for 229 yards and two scores over his last four games. The veteran wideout has emerged as a quality option for Marcus Mariota on the middle of the season, but his inconsistent production makes him a risky fantasy play moving forward.
Byrd secured three of four targets for 58 yards in Thursday's 25-15 loss to the Panthers.
What it means:
Byrd's modest production Thursday was a bounce-back performance after going catchless in Week 9. With that said, the veteran wideout has totaled just seven grabs for 200 yards and two touchdowns through seven games played. As the Falcons' No. 3 wideout in a struggling passing attack, Byrd is difficult to trust for fantasy purposes. The 29-year-old will look to take a step forward when the Falcons host the Bears in Week 11.
Byrd failed to haul in his only target during Sunday's 20-17 loss to the Chargers.
What it means:
Byrd played 29 offensive snaps, which was third most among Atlanta's wideouts behind Drake London (46) and Olamide Zaccheaus (43). However, Byrd, who'd caught four of seven passes for 142 yards and two scores over his past two appearances, was held in check against the Chargers. The veteran wideout has emerged as a big-play wideout for Marcus Mariota recently, but his production will likely be sporadic moving forward.
