BALLER MOVE: Start
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3/FLEX
ANALYSIS: Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy isn't a tough player to evaluate. He's a ridiculously fast burner with good route-running skills who has enormous upside. His fantasy production hasn't been elite due to his lack of targets, but rookies tend to take time to become acclimated to NFL offenses.

He ran the fastest forty-yard dash of all time at the NFL Combine, and he's paired with quarterback Patrick Mahomes II. He has an elite offensive coordinator and is part of an organization that's been stable for a long time. The offensive line gives the quarterback plenty of time to throw it deep.
He's had three games of double-digit PPR fantasy points despite averaging just 4.2 targets per game, and he has rushing upside. Once he starts getting more targets, he'll be more consistent and likely post more big games. He had six targets in Week 5, which was a career-high, and he could get even more coming off of a bye week.
XAVIER WORTHY AGAIN.
2ND TD OF THE DAY.

He should probably be started in all leagues moving forward. He has a legitimate chance of becoming the Chiefs' No. 1 receiver. Both WRs Hollywood Brown (shoulder) and Rashee Rice (knee) are out for the season. Worthy has a shot at greatness if given the opportunity.
