    Detroit Lions WR Golden Tate hauled in two passes on 13 targets for 13 yards Sunday, Sept. 18, versus the Tennessee Titans in Week 2.

    Huddle Up: Tate was unable to get in sync with QB Matthew Stafford and should be given the benefit of the doubt in Week 3, particularly if Green Bay is without CB Sam Shields. Tate shouldn't be trusted quite as much, however.

  • Posted: 9/11/2016 12:44pm ET

    Detroit Lions WR Golden Tate (ankle) is officially active for the team's Week 1 game.

    Huddle Up: Tate will be a major factor in the passing game this season and should be a No. 2 wide receiver in most fantasy leagues.

  • Posted: 9/9/2016 1:33pm ET

    Detroit Lions WR Golden Tate (ankle) fully participated in practice Friday, Sept. 9, and is listed as questionable for Week 1.

    Huddle Up: Tate should be fine for the game since has been able to fully practice in each of the last two days. Tate will be the Lions' No. 1 receiver this season and will be a fine No. 2 wide receiver in most fantasy leagues.

  • Posted: 9/8/2016 2:06pm ET

    Detroit Lions WR Golden Tate (ankle) participated fully in practice Thursday, Sept. 8.

    Huddle Up: Tate is a good start this week, especially now that we know he'll be full throttle. The Lions matchup with the Indianapolis Colts could prove to be the first real shootout of 2016. Tate makes for a solid WR2 option and could approach WR1 numbers if the scores are back and forth.

  • Posted: 9/7/2016 4:35pm ET

    Detroit Lions WR Golden Tate (ankle) was limited during practice Wednesday, Sept. 7.

    Huddle Up: Owners will need to check on Tate's status later in the week to see if he is in any danger of missing Week 1. Tate will be the team's No. 1 receiver with Calvin Johnson retired and will be a weekly starting option as long as he is healthy.

  • Posted: 8/23/2016 3:10pm ET

    Detroit Lions WR Golden Tate (undisclosed) returned to practice Tuesday, Aug. 23. The extent of his participation was not disclosed, however.

    Huddle Up: Tate's mystery injury isn't a big deal, apparently. He should be good to go for this weekend and is still in the WR2 conversation in all formats with Calvin Johnson out of the picture.

  • Posted: 8/21/2016 7:01pm ET

    Detroit Lions WR Golden Tate (undisclosed) did not practice Saturday, Aug. 20. He wouldn't mention the specifics of his injury, but he talked about playing in the preseason game against the Baltimore Ravens Saturday, Aug. 27.

    Huddle Up: Tate is set to be Detroit's top receiver in the wake of Calvin Johnson's retirement. He is a borderline WR2 in PPR formats and a solid WR3 in standard leagues.

  • Posted: 8/10/2016 1:44pm ET

    Detroit Lions WR Golden Tate has had sure hands in camp while his counterparts have had issues, including WR Jeremy Kerley who had a trio of drops in a recent practice.

    Huddle Up: As you might've noticed on this news feed, there are conflicting reports on Tate's hands in camp, but regardless, with Calvin Johnson and his 149 targets a year ago now gone, Tate figures to be the primary beneficiary, and we have him ranked as a low-end WR2.

  • Posted: 8/10/2016 10:07am ET

    Detroit Lions WR Marvin Jones has been the team's top receiver in camp, and it hasn't been close, as WR Golden Tate has had issues holding on to the football. Jones was targeted on seven of the 14 passes QB Matthew Stafford threw in the joint practice Tuesday, Aug. 9.

    Huddle Up: This is notable for prospective Jones buyers, but it's peculiar regarding Tate. He was receiving positive reviews from camp as recently as two weeks ago as the only Lions receiver not dropping balls. Jones is a WR3/4, while Tate is a rock-solid No. 2 in PPR.
