Patrick Mahomes Says He's Fine

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (head, neck) said he feels fine after taking a nasty hit and being helped off the field late in the fourth quarter of the team's Week 7 blowout loss to the Tennessee Titans. Mahomes looked woozy and got up slow after being sacked. He went to the medical tent […]

Josh Gordon Sees One Target In Week 7

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Josh Gordon only saw one target in an ugly Week 7 loss against the Tennessee Titans and finished with zero receptions on the day. Gordon had been expected to see more playing time, but he is still struggling to find his footing in this offense and is doing little to […]

Byron Pringle Leads Chiefs In Receiving In Week 7

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Byron Pringle caught five balls and was the team leader with 73 yards in an ugly loss versus the Tennessee Titans in Week 7. Pringle got some rave reviews during training camp and has gone over 50 receiving yards in three games, but has gone for 23 yards or less […]

Travis Kelce Sees 12 Targets In Ugly Loss

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce was one of the lone bright spots in an otherwise ugly loss versus the Tennessee Titans in Week 7. Seeing 12 targets on the afternoon, Kelce was able to haul in seven balls for 65 yards. It wasn't his best performance of the season, but it was a […]

Tyreek Hill Hauls In Six Balls In Loss

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill caught six of his nine targets for 49 yards and rushed one time for 18 yards in a blowout loss versus the Tennessee Titans in Week 7. Dealing with a quad injury that kept him sidelined from practice this week, Hill was able to suit up and make […]

Darrel Williams Doesn't Do Much In Week 7

Kansas City Chiefs running back Darrel Williams had a quiet afternoon in a Week 7 loss versus the Tennessee Titans. Williams only got five carries during the contest and picked up 20 yards. He also caught three balls for 30 yards. The Chiefs offense got obliterated and that would lead to Williams seeing a low […]

Patrick Mahomes Helped Off The Field

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes (head) took a hard hit to the head/neck area late in Sunday's game against the Titans and had to be helped off of the field. Mahomes was later seen walking around on the sidelines, so the injury might not be as bad as it looks, but Chad Henne will likely […]

Chiefs Defense Gets Chris Jones Back

The Kansas City Chiefs defense will get defensive end Chris Jones (wrist) back for Sunday's game against the Titans after Jones had missed the last two games. But while the return of Jones is a boon for the real-life Chiefs and should help slow things down at the point of attack, but the KC run […]

Tyreek Hill, Travis Kelce Officially Active

As expected, the Kansas City Chiefs will have wide receiver Tyreek Hill (quad) and tight end Travis Kelce (neck) for Sunday's game against the Tennessee Titans. With the Titans missing multiple pieces in the secondary, this should be a strong game for the Chiefs passing attack. Even with the injury concerns, fantasy managers should fire […]

Wide Receiver Matchups to Target in Week 7

The wide receiver matchup article from last week was a little underwhelming as most of the recommendations underperformed in great spots. On a positive note, Tyreek Hill (WR-12), Brandin Cooks (WR-19) and Ja'Marr Chase (WR-25) each had decent performances. On the downside, D.J. Moore (WR-38) had a whopping 13 targets but only snagged five of them for 73 yards […]

High-Upside Bench Stashes: Week 7

It might be Week 7, but that does not mean it is going to be a lucky week for fantasy footballers on the waiver wire. A half-dozen teams are on bye this week, which means 20 percent of the waiver wire crop cannot be picked since their teams will not be on the field. The […]
