Jerick McKinnon Catches Touchdown Against Seattle
Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon didn't see the same level of usage on Saturday that he'd been getting over the past couple of games, but he still managed to find the end zone for the fourth game in a row. McKinnon caught three passes for 31 yards and a touchdown, plus added seven […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoIsiah Pacheco Has Decent Showing In Week 16
Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco carried the ball 14 times for 58 yards in Saturday's win over the Seattle Seahawks, plus added one catch for 32 yards. It wasn't Pacheco's best game, but he ran for 4.1 yards per carry and continued to have a sizable edge in carries, with Jerick McKinnon and […]

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes was 16-for-28 for 224 yards and two touchdowns in Saturday's win over the Seattle Seahawks. He also added in a rushing touchdown as well. While this was the second-fewest passing yards in a game this season for Mahomes, the rushing score helped bolster his overall fantasy line. Mahomes looks […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoRoyce Freeman Doesn't Have Much Appeal In Week 16
Houston Texans running back Royce Freeman saw his first carries of the season last week, splitting backfield work with Dare Ogunbowale and finishing with 11 carries for 51 yards. Freeman seems slightly more likely than Ogunbowale to lead the backfield on Saturday against the Titans, but fantasy managers would need to be pretty desperate to […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoJordan Akins Is Risky Week 16 Play
Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins found the end zone last week against Kansas City, but he only finished with three catches for 22 yards. He's now finished with under 25 yards in four of the last five games. On Saturday, he faces the Tennessee Titans, who held him to one catch for five yards […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoDavis Mills Has Little Fantasy Appeal In Week 16
Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills has seen a shift in his role over the last two games, with the team occasionally bringing Jeff Driskel in at quarterback to change the pace up. Because of that, Mills' fantasy ceiling—which was already low—has gotten even lower. Last week was the first time since Week 5 that Mills […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoChiefs Defense Is Risky Play In Week 16
The Kansas City Chiefs defense is a risky fantasy option on Saturday against a Seattle Seahawks team that ranks seventh in the NFL in points scored per game. Combine that with the Chiefs ranking just 19th in scoring defense and 30th in takeaway differential, and there's just not a ton of upside here from a […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoTravis Kelce Remains Top Fantasy Tight End Play In Week 16
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has been the top tight end in fantasy football this season by a mile, and there's no reason to think that'll change on Saturday against the Seahawks. Kelce is coming off his second game of the season with 10 catches and over 100 yards, but he failed to […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoJuJu Smith-Schuster Has WR2 Appeal For Week 16
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster saw a dip in his production during November, but he's bounced back over the last two games, with a combined 21 targets over that span, which he's turned into 19 receptions. The yardage totals and yards per reception haven't been that high during these two games, but quarterback […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoJerick McKinnon Looks To Continue Strong Run
Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon has been on a roll lately, scoring multiple touchdowns in each of the team's last two games. He's been especially useful in the passing game, with 17 targets over the past two games. Three of his four touchdowns in that span were on receptions. With how important McKinnon […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoIsiah Pacheco Has Plenty Of Appeal In Week 16
Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco has now seen double-digit carries in six consecutive games, and while his fantasy value is capped by his lack of usage in the passing game, he should be a solid RB2/3 option against the Seattle Seahawks in Week 16. What makes Pacheco especially appealing this week is how […]
Justin Carter 2 years agoPatrick Mahomes Is Strong Week 16 Fantasy Option
Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes remains a top fantasy option heading into Saturday's home contest against the Seattle Seahawks. While the Midwest has been hit by snow and wind this week, the forecast on Saturday in KC looks like it'll be cold, but not impacted much by other weather issues. Mahomes comes into this […]

Justin Carter 2 years agoJordan Akins Finds End Zone In Week 15
Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins caught three passes for 22 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's loss to the Kansas City Chiefs. He was targeted six times, the second-most of any Texans player. In a tight end landscape where there are not a lot of consistent streaming options, Akins has some appeal because the […]

Houston Texans wide receiver Chris Moore was a popular waiver wire add after he had 124 receiving yards against Dallas last week, but he wasn't able to repeat it against the Chiefs this week.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling caught three of his five targets in Sunday's win over the Houston Texans, finishing with 26 yards and a touchdown, his second of the season.
