2025 Fantasy Outlook
Nealis was a rock in defense for the Red Bulls, helping his side reach the MLS Cup final for the first time in history. The center-back posted 35 appearances (30 starts), ranking fourth in interceptions and third in clearances while leading the team with 80 tackles and 93 aerial duels. Nealis remains a locked-in starter when fit, but there isn't a ton of upside for fantasy purposes as he had just three goal involvements on the season. That said, he's a safe option to pile up floor points from defensive actions while playing for a team that should be toward the top of the Eastern Conference standings. He's probably more of a streaming option in good matchups rather than an every-week starter for fantasy.
Listed as questionable

March 7, 2026
Nealis (ankle) is questionable for Sunday's match vs Montreal on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Nealis is listed on the injury report with an ankle injury, which puts him at risk for the clash with Montreal. He's played the entire 90 minutes the last two matches, making five tackles with 15 clearances and keeping a clean sheet. Omar Valencia could be a late call to start is Nealis is indeed ruled out.
