2025 Fantasy Outlook
After spending most of his career as a depth receiver and return specialist, McCloud was a full-time starter for the Falcons last year, working as the No. 3 receiver in an offense that used three-wide formations on a league-high 86 percent of snaps. Unsurprisingly, he was among the worst regular starters at his position in the league, with 1.29 yards per route being the 11th-lowest mark among WRs that ran 400 or more routes. McCloud's 87 targets produced just one touchdown and three interceptions, although he at least caught 71.3 percent of the passes and posted a respectable 11.1 yards per catch and 7.9 yards per target. He'll have a shot to start again in 2025, after the Falcons declined to draft any WRs or sign a big-name free agent at the position. Just don't expect much in the way of production even if he spends a lot of time on the field again. Read Past Outlooks
RANKS
Targeted twice in win
McCloud caught one of two targets for minus-7 yards in Sunday's 34-27 win over the Commanders.
ANALYSIS
McCloud was a complete nonfactor Sunday while playing 23 of the Falcons' 65 offensive snaps behind fellow wide receivers Drake London (55), Casey Washington (34) and Darnell Mooney (29). The veteran wideout has had a quiet start to the 2025 campaign, totaling six catches on 14 targets for 64 yards through four games. With teammates London, Mooney, Kyle Pitts and Bijan Robinson absorbing so many targets in Atlanta's aerial attack, McCloud faces a difficult path to consistent usage barring injuries. The 28-year-old remains extremely difficult to trust for fantasy purposes as the team heads into its Week 5 bye before hosting the Bills in Week 6.

After spending two years in San Francisco, McCloud signed a two-year deal with Atlanta this offseason, joining Darnell Mooney and Casey Washington as additions to a revamped wideout corps behind Drake London. Quarterback Kirk Cousins also is new in town and expected to elevate the passing attack led by former Rams passing game coordinator Zac Robinson. McCloud has never been prolific, totaling 26 catches (on 40 targets) for 378 yards and a score across two seasons with the 49ers, but he excels as a returner, which should help him land a roster spot on the Falcons.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Looking good for No. 3 role
McCloud is poised to open the season as Atlanta's top slot receiver, as he was working ahead of Rondale Moore prior to Moore's knee injury Wednesday, per Josh Kendall of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Even with Moore healthy, McCloud had the inside track on the slot receiver role, as he's consistently been working with the first-team offense in training camp. Moore was carted off the field at practice Wednesday due to a non-contact injury, further solidifying McCloud's standing as Atlanta's third wide receiver behind Drake London and Darnell Mooney.
