Chiefs Defense Should be Avoided Against Denver in Week 17

The Kansas City Chiefs defense gave up 24 points to the Tennessee Titans in Week 16 while recording two sacks and zero takeaways. The Chiefs' defense has now allowed 20 or more points in 10 of 15 games this season. The Kansas City defensive unit has also recorded two or fewer sacks in 10 of […]

Harrison Butker Considered a Low-End Kicking Option in Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker nailed three of his four field goal attempts and did not attempt a single extra-point since the Chiefs did not find the end zone in last week's loss to the Tennessee Titans. Butker and the Chiefs could be in for another low-scoring affair in Week 17 against the Denver […]

Travis Kelce Could Be Relied Upon In Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce could be heavily involved on Christmas Day against the Denver Broncos. Kelce caught one pass for six yards on four targets in Week 16, giving fantasy managers one of his most disappointing performances of the season. With the Chiefs already eliminated from playoff contention, there is little left […]

Marquise Brown With Tough Matchup On Christmas

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown will face the Denver Broncos on Christmas Day in Week 17. Brown caught three passes for 22 yards on three targets in last week's loss to the Tennessee Titans. With Rashee Rice and Tyquan Thornton placed on IR, Brown's role in the passing attack should increase. The veteran […]

Xavier Worthy To Operate As Chiefs WR1 Against Broncos In Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy will now be the unquestioned WR1 for the team moving forward. The Chiefs placed Rashee Rice and Tyquan Thornton on IR on Wednesday morning, opening the door for Worthy to step into a more prominent role. Worthy led the wide receivers in receiving yards last week, catching two […]

Kareem Hunt Not Involved Enough To Be Relevant In Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt has been relegated to a reserve role in the offense since Isiah Pacheco has taken over RB1 duties. Hunt handled just three carries for two yards in last week's loss to the Tennessee Titans. Hunt was also not targeted at all in the passing game. The veteran back […]

Isiah Pacheco With A Difficult Week 17 Matchup

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco has seemingly reclaimed his leadback role in the backfield, but it comes when the team turns to Chris Oladokun to be the starting quarterback. Pacheco rushed eight times for 34 yards, but the most surprising part of his stat line came in the receiving game. The 26-year-old was […]

Chris Oladokun Will Start For Chiefs On Christmas Day

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Chris Oladokun will now be the starting quarterback for the team heading into the last two games of the season. Kansas City lost Patrick Mahomes to an ACL tear in Week 15, and Gardner Minshew was the next man up in the QB room. Minshew started the game in Week 16 […]

Kansas City Defense Could Be A Strong Play In Week 16

The Kansas City Chiefs defense will take on the Tennessee Titans in Week 16. The Chiefs defense has struggled mightily over the last six games, losing five of six and allowing 20 or more points in five of six. The Kansas City defense was able to hold the Los Angeles Chargers to 16 points in […]

Harrison Butker Hard To Start In Week 16

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker was perfect in Week 15, cashing in on both of his field goal attempts and his only extra-point attempt. Butker has been serviceable this season, but he has not reached the level of upside he once had when the Chiefs were one of the highest-scoring offenses in the league. […]

Travis Kelce Should Be A Low-End TE1 Against Tennessee

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was heavily involved in Week 15, catching seven passes for 70 yards, but it was not enough to pull out the win and save their playoff hopes. The 35-year-old will now face the Tennessee Titans in Week 16 with essentially nothing to play for since the team has […]

Marquise Brown Good To Go, Could Be A Desperation Flex In Week 16

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown missed Week 15 and was listed on this week's injury report with a personal issue, but practiced fully and does not have a designation for this week. Brown should step into a larger role with Rashee Rice and Tyquan Thornton ruled out with concussions this week. While Xavier […]

Xavier Worthy Should Be The Chiefs WR1 In Week 16

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy caught two passes for 35 yards in last week's loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, but he should step into the lead role for the Chiefs this week. With fellow receivers Rashee Rice and Tyquan Thornton ruled out with concussions, there should be plenty of opportunities for Worthy […]

Isiah Pacheco Should Retain Lead Role In Week 16

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco led the backfield in the Week 15 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers. Pacheco handled 11 carries for 21 yards and did not earn a single target. The 26-year-old supplanted Kareem Hunt as the back with the most opportunities, but Pacheco only averaged 1.9 yards per carry with […]

Kareem Hunt Hard To Trust Without Mahomes In Week 16

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt took a backseat to Isiah Pacheco in last week's loss to the Los Angeles Chargers, and his value should also decrease without Patrick Mahomes leading the offense. Hunt rushed six times for 12 yards and caught one pass for eight yards in Week 15. Hunt handled five fewer […]

Gardner Minshew Will Lead The Chiefs In Week 16

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Gardner Minshew replaced Patrick Mahomes after he suffered his season-ending knee injury against the Los Angeles Chargers last week. Minshew completed three of his five pass attempts for 22 yards and an interception in the loss. It was a difficult spot for the backup to be thrust into, but he should […]

Chiefs Defense Offers Little Upside In Week 15

The Kansas City Chiefs defense has not been an exciting unit to roster this season, and the past five games are evidence of that. Since Week 9, Kansas City has given up at least 20 points in every game and has only one takeaway in that span. The Chiefs' defense will now have to face […]

Harrison Butker Tough To Trust In Week 15

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker missed one of his two field goal attempts in last week's loss to the Houston Texans. His miss in Week 14 was his fourth missed field goal of the season and ruined his field goal streak that dated back to September 28 against the Baltimore Ravens. Butker was not […]

Travis Kelce With A Difficult Matchup In Week 15

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was essentially eliminated from last week's contest against the Houston Texans. Kelce was held to one catch for eight yards in the 10-20 loss to Houston. The veteran tight end was a non-factor, finishing sixth on the team in receiving yardage. Week 14 was the first time this […]

Xavier Worthy Could Struggle Against Chargers In Week 15

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy caught three passes for 55 yards to lead the team in last week's 10-20 loss to the Houston Texans. The Texans focused their defensive attention on Rashee Rice, which allowed Worthy to emerge with the most receiving yards on the team in Week 14. Worthy has quietly strung […]

Rashee Rice Without An Injury Designation For Matchup Against Chargers

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice was held in check by the Houston Texans in last week's loss. The Chiefs WR1 caught four passes for 34 yards, finishing third on the team in receiving yardage. Despite his lackluster performance, Rice still finished with a team-high eight targets, demonstrating the team's determination to keep him […]

Isiah Pacheco Earning More Touches Heading Into Week 15

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco handled nine carries for 30 yards in last week's 10-20 loss to the Houston Texans. In his second game back from injury, Pacheco's opportunities ticked up closer to Kareem Hunt, who handled 12 carries in the contest. Pacheco looked like the best back in the backfield before his […]

Kareem Hunt Loosening Grip On Backfield Heading Into Week 15

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt handled 12 carries for 30 yards and a touchdown in last week's loss to the Houston Texans. The veteran back once again found the endzone, but was inefficient with his opportunities. Hunt averaged 2.5 yards per carry and failed to bring in his only target of the contest. […]

Patrick Mahomes Off The Injury Report, Ready For Pivotal Divisional Matchup

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is coming off his worst game of the season in last week's 10-20 loss to the Houston Texans. Mahomes completed 14 of 33 pass attempts (42%) for 160 yards and three interceptions. Despite his ineffectiveness through the air, Mahomes was the team's leading rusher with 59 yards on the […]

Chiefs Defense Tough To Trust In Week 14

The Kansas City Chiefs defense has been struggling to keep points off the board, giving up at least 20 points in four straight games. The Chiefs just gave up 31 points to the Dallas Cowboys on Thanksgiving while recording zero sacks, marking their worst performance of the season. The Kansas City defense has now given […]

Harrison Butker Outside Top 12 Kickers For Week 14

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker will face the Houston Texans in Week 14. Butker made all nine of his field goal attempts from Weeks 10 -12, but did not get an opportunity to extend that streak in Week 13 against the Dallas Cowboys. Butker did not record a single field goal attempt on Thanksgiving, […]

Travis Kelce Remains Top TE Option Despite Difficult Matchup In Week 14

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will have his hands full against the Houston Texans in Week 14. Kelce caught five passes for 45 yards and a touchdown in last week's loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Despite the loss, the veteran tight end put forth an excellent fantasy performance, and he should be relied […]

Marquise Brown Needs A Touchdown To Be Viable In Week 14

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown caught two passes for 20 yards and a touchdown in last week's 28-31 loss to the Dallas Cowboys. Despite his modest stat line, Brown found the endzone to salvage his fantasy day. The veteran receiver has found pay dirt five times this season, meaning that Patrick Mahomes can […]

Xavier Worthy Tough To Trust With Difficult Matchup In Week 14

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy has often taken a backseat to Rashee Rice and Travis Kelce this season, but this week, he will also have to contend with one of the toughest defenses in the league. Worthy caught four passes for 61 yards and rushed twice for 13 yards in last week's Thanksgiving […]

Rashee Rice Should Be Leaned On In Tough Week 14 Matchup

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice caught eight passes for 92 yards and two touchdowns in the 28-31 loss to Dallas on Thanksgiving. Rice has been the focal point of Kansas City's offense since his return from suspension and has been virtually matchup-proof outside of a down game against Denver, where he caught six […]
