2023 Fantasy Outlook
After making his first career Pro Bowl in 2021, a slew of injuries combined with the arrival of Davante Adams caused Renfrow's production to severely dip, as the slot man closed the 2022 season with 36 receptions for 330 yards and two touchdowns on 50 targets in 10 games while Adams commanded a career-high 180 total targets. The Raiders traded tight end Darren Waller to the Giants this offseason, but free-agent additions Jakobi Meyers and DeAndre Carter are each capable of vulturing slot reps, which could land Renfrow on the trade block at some point. Given that he remains in Las Vegas, however, Renfrow's utility in PPR formats could potentially rebound if he earns enough playing time, as quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo typically lacks in the air-yards department.

Cut loose by Las Vegas
The Raiders will release Renfrow on Wednesday, Tashan Reed of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The move will open up $8.21 million in cap space for the Raiders in 2024 and was seen as an inevitability unless Renfrow agreed to a large paycut. He caught 103 passes for 1,038 yards and nine touchdowns in 2021 -- his third NFL season -- but then had only 585 yards in 27 games the past two seasons after signing a two-year, $32.33 million extension. He made it through the first season of the extension, but he'll now become a free agent a few months after his 28th birthday. Meanwhile, the Raiders have Davante Adams, Jakobi Meyers and Tre Tucker atop their depth chart at wide receiver, with the latter having replaced Renfrow in the No. 3 role at times during the 2023 season.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Speaks on trade rumors
Renfrow told reporters Friday that he believes that he feels like he can help the Raiders or "any other team" looking for his service as his name swirls in trade rumors ahead of the Oct. 31 deadline, Vincent Bonsignore of the Las Vegas Review-Journal reports.
ANALYSIS
Renfrow's production following his 2021 Pro Bowl season has fallen off, as the 2019 fifth-round pick has dealt with injuries and inconsistent quarterback play. The Raiders gave Renfrow a two-year, $32.33 million contract extension in June of 2022 after he registered his first 1,000-yard season of his career, but he has become an afterthought in the team's offense this season. Renfrow has just eight catches on 12 targets for 73 yards and has played in only 50 percent or more of offensive snaps in two of seven games this year. He noted Friday that it's been "an interesting two years," and seems ready for a change of scenery ahead of the trade deadline.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2022
2021
2020
2019
Those who referred to Renfrow as “The Accountant” had it right — he's reliable, and always
looks comfortable working between the numbers. The 2019 fifth-round pick was an efficient,
mid-volume slot specialist his first two NFL seasons, before breaking out last year as the
Raiders' leader in targets, catches, yards and touchdowns. Six missed games from TE Darren
Waller played a role, with Renfrow averaging 8.1 targets in those games compared to 7.2 in the
11 games Waller played. Still, that's a huge increase from 2019 (5.5 per game) and 2020 (4.8),
with Renfrow arguably challenging Waller for alpha status even when both were healthy. It'll be
a different story in 2022, as new Raider Davante Adams combines some of Waller's best traits
(size, physicality) with some of Renfrow's (crafty route-running, precise footwork). The new
setup has Renfrow as Option B or C, which is good news for the Raiders but less so for fantasy
managers. That said, it's not out of the question for Adams, Waller and Renfrow to approach
their recent production, as the Raiders don't have great depth behind them and could feature a
pass-first offense under new coach Josh McDaniels. You might say Renfrow has the benefit of
familiarity, but Waller has actually been with the Raiders a bit longer, and Adams was QB Derek
Carr's favorite target back in their Fresno State days.
