Who should I start for Week 17? Fantasy football outlooks for Hollywood Brown, Xavier Worthy, DeAndre Hopkins. Our expert fantasy football start 'em, sit 'em picks.
Unfortunately, the Kansas City Chiefs have played most of the year without their best wide receiver. Rashee Rice suffered a season-ending knee injury in the Week 4 win over the Los Angeles Chargers.
However, Marquise Brown, Xavier Worthy, and DeAndre Hopkins have stepped up for Patrick Mahomes and the passing attack. Each had massive moments for the team this season.
Which Chiefs wide receiver should fantasy players start in Week 17? Let’s dive into it.
Should I Start Hollywood Brown For Fantasy Football?
Brown missed the first 15 weeks of the year with a shoulder injury he suffered during the preseason. The veteran wide receiver had a solid Chiefs debut, totaling five receptions on eight targets for 45 receiving yards and seven half-point PPR fantasy points.
While his snap count will continue to increase over the last two games of the year, fantasy players should avoid starting him in Week 17. Brown is getting his feet under him after not playing football for four months. He is hard to trust in lineups during the championship game matchup.

Should I Start Xavier Worthy For Fantasy Football?
Worthy is the WR32 for the season, averaging 9.3 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. The rookie wide receiver was wildly inconsistent earlier this year, scoring 7.9 or fewer fantasy points in over 60% of the games over the first 14 weeks. However, he has been on fire lately.
The rookie wide receiver has 11 targets in back-to-back games, scoring a touchdown in both contests. Furthermore, Worthy has scored 16.6 or more fantasy points in back-to-back outings after totaling only one game with more than 14.8 over the first 14 weeks. Meanwhile, the former Texas star quietly leads all rookies in offensive scores this season. He is a solid starting option this week.

Should I Start DeAndre Hopkins For Fantasy Football?
Hopkins is the WR41 for the year, averaging 7.8 half-point PPR fantasy points per game. The veteran wide receiver has averaged 9.6 fantasy points per game since joining the Chiefs, totaling 11 or more in 44.4% of the contests. However, his fantasy production has slipped lately, totaling 6.1 or fewer fantasy points in back-to-back games.
While his fantasy production has slipped, Hopkins continues to make impressive plays for the team. Unfortunately, fantasy players should avoid starting him on Christmas Day against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The veteran is a desperation flex option in deeper leagues.
