Four grabs in loss to Green Bay
WRDetroit Lions
November 27, 2025
Kennedy caught all four of his targets for 36 yards in Thursday's 31-24 loss to the Packers. He added 102 total return yards on three kickoff and one punt return.
ANALYSIS
Brought up from the practice squad for the second time this season with Kalif Raymond (ankle) sidelined but actually active this time around, Kennedy got thrust into a bigger offensive role than expected after Amon-Ra St. Brown left the game in the first quarter and didn't return due to an ankle injury of his own. The four grabs were a career high for Kennedy, who came into the contest with a 14-195-0 line on 26 targets over 24 NFL games, all with Detroit. St. Brown could end up missing another week or two, per Colton Pouncy of The Athletic, which could land Kennedy in a regular spot in three-wide sets alongside Jameson Williams and Isaac TeSlaa in a Week 14 clash with the Cowboys.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Best practice squad player?
WRFree Agent
September 9, 2022
Chris Trapasso of CBS Sports ranks Kennedy as the best player currently on an NFL practice squad.
ANALYSIS
Kennedy doesn't have much of a pedigree because he's a 26-year-old former undrafted free agent out of Bryant, but he was highly productive during the preseason, racking up 16 catches for 143 yards and two touchdowns. Trapasso believes Kennedy would find success lining up in the slot along with Amon-Ra St. Brown for the Lions, but another team also could sign Kennedy off Detroit's practice squad at any time should an opening present itself.
