Mecole Hardman Grabs Touchdown in Victory

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman played well during the Week 2 victory over the Oakland Raiders. Hardman has quickly moved up on the depth chart after Tyreek Hill (shoulder) went down last week. Hardman caught four of his six targets for 61 yards and a touchdown. Demarcus Robinson had a huge game, catching […]

Demarcus Robinson Has An Excellent Game

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Demarcus Robinson had himself a fantastic game against the Oakland Raiders in Week 2. Robinson caught all six of his targets for 172 yards and two touchdowns. He looked unstoppable against the shaky Raiders secondary, but who knows if that will happen again. Robinson, Mecole Hardman, and De'Anthony Thomas will […]

Travis Kelce Explodes for Over 100 Yards

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce started off a little slow in Week 1, but turned it around quickly in Week 2 against the Oakland Raiders.

Sammy Watkins Targeted 13 Times Versus Oakland

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins jumped into the No. 1 receiver spot for the team in Week 2, but unfortunately disappointed fantasy owners.

Damien Williams is Held in Check by Oakland

Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams (knee) was unable to get anything going on the ground against the Oakland Raiders in Week 2. He rushed nine times for eight yards and added three receptions for 48 yards through the air. Both Williams and LeSean McCoy struggled to get anything going in the ground game. […]

LeSean McCoy Struggles on the Ground in Week 2

Kansas City Chiefs running back LeSean McCoy wasn't able to get anything going on the ground during Sunday's Week 2 victory over the Oakland Raiders. McCoy totaled 81 yards on the ground during Week 1, but it wasn't the same result here. He rushed 11 times for 23 yards and caught three passes for zero […]

Patrick Mahomes Carves Up Raiders Defense

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is off to an incredible start to the regular season. He threw for three touchdowns in Week 1, but still somehow managed to top that in Week 2.

Damien Williams Injures Knee Against Raiders

Kansas City Chiefs running back Damien Williams (knee) injured his knee in Week 2 against the Raiders and is questionable to return. Williams turned in a dud before his injury with the Chiefs leading 28-10, rushing only nine times for eight yards (0.9 yards per tote) while catching three of his five targets in the […]

Patrick Mahomes Will Have Eric Fisher Protecting Him

Kansas City Chiefs left tackle Eric Fisher (groin) is active in Week 2 against the Raiders on the road. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes would've been the top fantasy option at QB regardless of whether Fisher was active or not, but this just helps his outlook against a Raiders secondary that lost rookie safety Jonathan Abram (shoulder) […]

NFL DFS Prop Picks for 9/15/19 - Monkey Knife Fight

Mecole Hardman Has WR4 Upside

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman will see an increased workload the next few weeks with Tyreek Hill (shoulder) sidelined. It sounds like De'Anthony Thomas and Hardman will split up the No. 2 receiver role in KC. Head coach Andy Reid believes that both players have big play potential. Hardman only saw one target […]

Travis Kelce is an Elite Option for Sunday

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce got off to a bit of a slow start against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 1. He managed three receptions and 88 yards, but fantasy owners are used to more from Kelce. Tyreek Hill (shoulder) is going to be sidelined for awhile, so Kelce and Sammy Watkins will […]

Sammy Watkins is Strong WR1 Against Raiders

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins had a historic game against the Jacksonville Jaguars in Week 1. He caught nine passes for 198 yards and three touchdowns in the victory.

Patrick Mahomes May Be Without Eric Fisher Sunday

Kansas City Chiefs left tackle Eric Fisher (groin) was injured in practice on Friday and is questionable to play in Week 2 against the Raiders. The most likely replacement if Fisher is inactive would be backup Cam Erving, who started on the blind side the last time Fisher missed a start back in the 2017 […]

LeSean McCoy is Shaky RB2 for Week 2

Kansas City Chiefs running back LeSean McCoy looked good during his Week 1 matchup with the Jacksonville Jaguars. McCoy rushed for 81 yards on 10 attempts, but was unable to find the end zone. Damien Williams is going to see plenty of carries in the backfield, so that's going to limit McCoy's ceiling. McCoy has […]
