Malik Heath

24-Year-Old Wide ReceiverWR
Green Bay Packers
2024 Fantasy Outlook
Heath went undrafted in 2023, but he was scooped up by the Packers and made waves nearly from the start. He didn't stand out in any one area, but he spent the duration of the campaign on the team's 53-man roster and filled in effectively when injuries hit. A player in his situation would generally have a chance to earn a larger role in his second season, but he'll enter training camp behind five others on the depth chart and will be pushing the Packers to head into Week 1 with six wideouts.

$Signed a three-year, $2.7 million contract with the Packers in May of 2023.
No catches in wild-card loss
WRGreen Bay Packers
January 14, 2025
Heath failed to record a single reception on four targets in Sunday's 22-10 wild-card loss to the Eagles.
ANALYSIS
Heath played 38 percent of the Packers' offensive snaps Sunday, his highest snap share of the season. With Christian Watson (knee) sidelined, and both Romeo Doubs (concussion) and Jayden Reed (shoulder) picking up injuries in the contest, Heath was needed to fill in at wide receiver position. With that said, the 24-year-old wasn't able to do anything against the Eagles' formidable defense, as Green Bay's offense struggled throughout the game. Heath finished the 2024 campaign with just 10 grabs for 97 yards and two touchdowns on 13 targets across 13 contests. The Mississippi product is under contract for the 2025 season before becoming a restricted free agent in 2026. Heath will continue to face competition for targets in Green Bay's young receiver corps with Reed, Doubs, Watson and Dontayvion Wicks all under contract next season.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
Heath was not selected in the 2023 NFL Draft, but the Packers snapped him up as an undrafted free agent, and that turned out to be a prudent move, as he made noise during offseason workouts. The Packers brought in several rookie wideouts, but given their youth at the position Heath will have a chance to come away with a roster spot.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Could make Green Bay's roster
WRGreen Bay Packers
June 25, 2023
Matt Schneidman of The Athletic projects Heath to make the Packers' 53-man roster.
ANALYSIS
Schneidman has the Packers keeping six wide receivers, all of whom are rookies or second-year players. He believes Heath is at the top of a clustered bunch of players vying for the sixth spot behind Christian Watson, Romeo Doubs, Jayden Reed, Samori Toure and Dontayvion Wicks. Given the lack of established names ahead of him, the undrafted rookie from Ole Miss could have a chance to climb the depth chart during the season if he makes the team.
