Spencer Ware Not Expected To Play Saturday

Kansas City Chiefs running back Spencer Ware (hamstring) will work out prior to the divisional round game against the Colts on Saturday, but the hopes aren't high that he will be able to suit up, according to a source. That means that Damien Williams will once again be the main horse in this backfield with […]

Sammy Watkins Expected To Play Against Colts

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins (foot), who is questionable for the divisional round against the Colts on Saturday, is expected to play, according to a source. Watkins hasn't played since Week 11, so expecting him to return and put up big numbers against Indy is foolish. Expect Watkins to split snaps with big-bodied […]

Spencer Ware, Sammy Watkins Questionable

Kansas City Chiefs running back Spencer Ware (hamstring) and wide receiver Sammy Watkins (foot) were both limited in practice all week and are questionable for Saturday against the Colts in the divisional round. Ware hasn't played since Dec. 9 and is likely to play second fiddle to Damien Williams in the backfield against the Colts. […]

Sammy Watkins Up In The Air Against Colts

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said "we'll see" when asked if wide receiver Sammy Watkins (foot) would play in the divisional round against the Colts on Saturday. Watkins hasn't played since Week 11, so even if he's active, he'll be a huge DFS risk in danger of seeing limited snaps. Tyreek Hill and […]

Travis Kelce Hauls in Five Receptions in Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce had a fairly slow game, but that's because fantasy owners usually always expect big games from Kelce. He caught five of his nine targets for 62 yards and was unable to find the end zone. His nine targets led the Chiefs, but he was just unable to haul […]

Tyreek Hill Goes Over 100 Yards Against Raiders

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill put together a solid game in Week 17 after two dud performances the two weeks prior. Hill caught five of his seven targets for 101 yards and a touchdown in the 35-3 victory. Hill also had one rushing attempt for 15 yards and a touchdown. He's been bothered […]

Williams was rested late in the game after it was clearly already over, otherwise he would've had better […]

Patrick Mahomes Plays Well in Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes did not have an explosive fantasy performance, but he was able to get the job done against the Raiders. Mahomes finished 14-for-24 with 281 passing yards and two touchdowns with one interception. Mahomes sat out in the fourth quarter, otherwise his stats would've been better. Mahomes finished the regular […]

Spencer Ware Not Playing Against Raiders

Kansas City Chiefs running back Spencer Ware (hamstring) is inactive in Week 17 against the Raiders despite getting in some full practices last week. It's somewhat of a surprise, but the Chiefs will elect to get Ware at least one extra week of rest for the playoffs. In his absence, Damien Williams has been great […]
