Travis Kelce Catches Touchdown In AFC Title Game

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce (back) was a game-time decision for Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Cincinnati Bengals, but he suited up and ended up leading the team in receptions, catching seven passes for 78 yards and a touchdown.

Isiah Pacheco Gets 15 Touches In AFC Championship Game

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco saw a lot of usage in Sunday's AFC Championship Game win over the Bengals, with 10 carries and five receptions. He didn't produce a ton on the ground as he finished with just 26 rushing yards, but that was enough to lead the team, as the rest of […]

Patrick Mahomes Tosses Two Touchdowns In AFC Title Game

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes looked impacted at times by the ankle sprain he suffered last week against the Jaguars, but he still managed to go 29-for-43 for 326 yards with a pair of touchdowns while also adding eight rushing yards, including a five-yard scamper that helped set up the game-winning field goal as […]

Kadarius Toney An Intriguing DFS Option For AFC Title Game

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney is an interesting fantasy option for Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Cincinnati Bengals.

JuJu Smith-Schuster A Risky Play In AFC Championship

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster will be a risky DFS option on Sunday against the Bengals based on how he's played recently. The former Steelers wideout has had three or fewer receptions in four consecutive games, including just two catches for 29 yards in last week's win over the Jaguars. Factor in that […]

Jerick McKinnon Has Touchdown Upside In AFC Title Game

Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon didn't score a touchdown last week against the Jaguars in the Divisional Round, which is notable because McKinnon entered that game with a streak of six consecutive games with at least one touchdown, with at least one of those in each game being a receiving score. McKinnon actually […]

Isiah Pacheco Has Added Appeal In AFC Title Game

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco played a solid game last week against the Jaguars, carrying the ball 12 times for 95 yards.

JuJu Smith-Schuster Quiet In Playoff Win

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster caught a pair of passes for 29 yards in Saturday's win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. He was only targeted twice. KC's game plan was altered by an ankle injury to Patrick Mahomes in the first half, which led to just two Chiefs getting targeted more than twice. Smith-Schuster […]

Kadarius Toney Targeted Seven Times On Saturday

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney was targeted seven times in Saturday's win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, catching five of them for 36 yards. He also added a 14-yard carry. While the yardage total wasn't necessarily impressive, Toney's heavy involvement in the passing game seems like a good sign, especially if quarterback Patrick Mahomes […]

Travis Kelce Catches 14 Passes On Saturday

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce caught 14 of his 17 targets in Saturday's playoff win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. He finished with 98 yards and a pair of touchdowns. With quarterback Patrick Mahomes (ankle) hobbled, Kelce's ability to pick up hard-fought first downs and extend plays became more important than ever. One of […]

Jerick McKinnon Doesn't Find End Zone

Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon failed to score a touchdown in Saturday's Divisional Round win over the Jaguars, ending a streak of six games in a row with at least one touchdown. McKinnon wasn't targeted in the passing game, but he did get 11 carries. Unfortunately, he only managed to gain 25 yards […]

Isiah Pacheco Runs Well In Saturday's Win

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco carried the ball 12 times for 95 yards in Saturday's Divisional Round win over the Jacksonville Jaguars. With quarterback Patrick Mahomes (ankle) banged up, the team had to rely more than usual on the run game, and Pacheco put together a solid showing, averaging 7.9 yards per carry. […]

Patrick Mahomes Leads Chiefs To Divisional Round Win

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (ankle) wasn't at 100% for most of Saturday's playoff win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, sitting out much of the first half. But Mahomes returned after halftime and while he was clearly hobbled, he led a second-half touchdown drive that proved to be the difference in the 27-20 victory. Mahomes […]

Chiefs Defense A Solid Option For Divisional Round

The Kansas City Chiefs defense is one of the better DFS options this weekend against the Jacksonville Jaguars, who KC held to 17 points when the two teams met in the regular season, though the Chiefs didn't manage to force any turnovers in that game. Jacksonville is led by second-year quarterback Trevor Lawrence, who led […]

Marquez Valdes-Scantling A Risky Fantasy Option Against Jaguars

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquez Valdes-Scantling had a disappointing first season with the team, catching 42 passes for 687 yards and two touchdowns. His 16.4 yards per reception were his lowest since his rookie season—MVS was expected to be a deep threat for quarterback Patrick Mahomes, but that never really materialized. He did have […]

Travis Kelce The Top Fantasy Tight End For Divisional Round

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was the top fantasy tight end during the regular season. That remains the same heading into the Divisional Round. Kelce finished the year with a career-high 110 receptions for 1,338 yards and 12 touchdowns, which includes a six-catch, 81-yard performance against the Jacksonville Jaguars, who the Chiefs face […]

JuJu Smith-Schuster A Risky Fantasy Option For Divisional Round

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster has had an up-and-down season, but it ended on a low note, as he averaged 2.3 receptions for 27.7 yards and no touchdowns over the final three games of the season. His usage has been hard to predict all season, and it's made him a boom-or-bust fantasy option. […]

Jerick McKinnon Has Touchdown Upside In Divisional Round

Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon is an appealing DFS option on Saturday against the Jacksonville Jaguars based on his play at the end of the regular season. McKinnon became a constant presence in the end zone, with a receiving touchdown in six consecutive games to end the year, with nine total touchdowns in […]

Isiah Pacheco An Appealing Fantasy Play In Divisional Round

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco had one of his best games of the season the last time the Chiefs took on the Jacksonville Jaguars, carrying the ball 16 times for 82 yards, his third-best yardage total of the 2022 season. He'll get another chance against the Jags on Saturday when the two sides […]

Patrick Mahomes Should Be Top Play In Divisional Round

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes should be viewed as a top DFS play for Saturday's meeting with the Jacksonville Jaguars. When these two teams met during the regular season, Mahomes was almost unstoppable, going 26-for-25 for 331 yards and four touchdowns, plus adding 39 yards on the ground. The one big blemish that day […]

Fantasy Basketball Waiver Wire Pickups for Week 14 Include Isaiah Jackson, T.J. McConnell, Donte DiVincenzo, Joe Harris

Jordan Akins Catches Pair Of Touchdowns

Houston Texans tight end Jordan Akins caught a pair of touchdowns—and the game-winning two-point conversion—in Sunday's win over the Indianapolis Colts. He finished the game with four catches for 70 yards and was targeted a team-high eight times. It was a strong showing for Akins, who has looked like Houston's best tight end over the […]

Brandin Cooks Has Best Game Of Season In Week 18

Houston Texans wide receiver Brandin Cooks ended the season on a high note, catching six passes for a season-high 106 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's win over the Indianapolis Colts. Now, the big question with Cooks will be what's next for the veteran receiver. He's under contract with the team next year, but his […]

Davis Mills Throws Three Touchdown In Week 18

Houston Texans quarterback Davis Mills threw a season-high three touchdowns in Sunday's win over the Indianapolis Colts, completing 22-of-38 pass attempts for 298 yards. He was picked off twice and added six rushing yards. It was arguably the best game of Mills' season, though a pick-six does mar the stat line somewhat. Mills heads into […]

Jerick McKinnon Extends Touchdown Streak To Six Games

Kansas City Chiefs running back Jerick McKinnon didn't produce a lot of yards in Saturday's win over the Las Vegas Raiders, finishing with two carries for six yards and two catches for zero yards. But McKinnon did find the end zone on one of those receptions, which marks the sixth game in a row that […]

Travis Kelce Quiet In Season Finale

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce didn't post big numbers in Saturday's win over the Las Vegas Raiders, catching six passes for 38 yards and failing to find the end zone. Curiously, both games this season that saw Kelce finish with under 40 receiving yards came against the Raiders, though in the first meeting, […]
