2022 Fantasy Outlook
After masquerading as a starting receiver for most of last season, Raymond enters the 2022 campaign fighting for the No. 5 or 6 spot on the depth chart. While his roster spot should be safe considering Detroit gave the punt returner almost $3 million in the first year of a two-year deal, he will have to beat out Quintez Cephus and Josh Reynolds just to be a potential injury replacement for DJ Chark, Jameson Williams or Amon-Ra St. Brown.

Plays through broken ribs
WRDetroit Lions
January 9, 2023
Raymond told reporters Monday that he played the second half of Sunday's win over the Packers with broken ribs, Eric Woodyard of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
It's unclear when Raymond suffered the injury, but he said it happened sometime during the first half, which means he made arguably the play of the night -- a 43-yard catch in the third quarter to set up the first touchdown of the game -- with broken ribs. The big play helped pave the way for the undrafted wideout out of Holy Cross to lead the Lions in receiving as they upset their divisional rival and kept Green Bay out of the playoffs. Raymond, who has one year remaining on his contract with the Lions, presumably will have plenty of time to recover during the offseason and should be ready for the 2023 campaign.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2021
2020
While the Titans let Raymond walk in free agency, Detroit needs someone to fill in as the team's primary return man on both punts and kickoffs. Raymond seems like the clear favorite to do so, and it's possible the speedster could also have some sort of role as a situational deep threat on offense.
Raymond has bounced around several franchises in the league, but may have found his home in Tennessee. After being promoted from the practice squad to the active roster, Raymond provided several explosive plays to close out the 2019 campaign. He recorded receptions of 52 and 40 yards in the regular season, but made his biggest impact during the playoffs with a 45-yard touchdown reception in the Titans' upset win over the Ravens. Given the departure of Tajae Sharpe and the team's decision to not invest in pass-catchers this offseason, Raymond is in a strong position to serve as the fourth wideout and major downfield threat.
