Injury Status: Injured Reserve
Injury: Ankle
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyquan Thornton (ankle) is expected to miss 12 to 16 weeks after undergoing extensive testing Monday. Ian Rapoport reported that Thornton will have surgery within the next week for the dislocated left ankle he suffered during Sunday's win over the Las Vegas Raiders. There is a real chance he could return late in the season or during the playoffs, though that will depend on how his recovery progresses. Thornton was having his best game of the year before the injury, catching five of eight targets for 111 yards and two touchdowns. He has 11 receptions for 219 yards and two scores through four games. The timetable takes Thornton out of the fantasy picture for the foreseeable future, while Kansas City will have to replace one of its top deep threats as he begins a lengthy recovery.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyquan Thornton will enter the 2026 campaign as the team's speedy downfield threat and big playmaker. Thornton, who signed a two-year contract extension this offseason, suffered a hamstring injury early in training camp but is healthy ahead of Week 1 to be the Chiefs' WR3 behind Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy. The former second-round pick from Baylor is coming off a career season and filled in when both Rice and Worthy were sidelined, although he caught just 19 of 37 targets for 438 yards and three touchdowns in the air. Thornton showed he is a strong downfield target for Patrick Mahomes by leading all receivers with 23.1 yards per reception in 2025, but his contributions are more about sporadic big-game plays than consistent weekly production. RotoBaller ranks Thornton at WR88, as he is a waiver-watch with low weekly fantasy value.less...
