Kareem Hunt is Slowed Down By Cardinals
Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt was held out of the end zone for the first time since Week 1. He rushed 16 times for 71 yards and caught two passes for 25 yards.

What's Wrong with Jordan Reed?
Rule 86: If Jordan Reed is in Washington's lineup, he should be in yours. This was the rule to live by when it came to Jordan Reed throughout his career. One of the NFL's most dynamic playmakers, Reed struggled to stay on the field but shined when he was on it. Reed led all tight ends […]
Rookie Running Back Overview, ROS Outlook
It's been said before and I'll say it again - rookie running backs can play a very significant role when it comes to fantasy fortunes. Kareem Hunt (2017) and Ezekiel Elliot (2016) are the recent examples, while the Saquon Barkley breakout of 2018 has taken absolutely no one by surprise. Prior to this season, I […]
Justin Houston Expected To Return In Week 10
Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Justin Houston (hamstring) is expected to return to action in Week 10 against the Cardinals for the first time in a month. He was practicing with the starters on Thursday in the portion of practice open to the media. It's a big upgrade to the team's pass rush, as Houston has […]
Tyreek Hill Should Bounce Back Against Arizona
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyreek Hill has been held to 70 receiving yards or less over the last three games. However, he always remains a dangerous threat because of the deep pass. Hill is heading into a matchup against the Cardinals who rank eighth in passing yards allowed this season, according to Yahoo. Hill […]
Sammy Watkins Shouldn't Be Trusted in Week 10
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins (foot) was sidelined during Thursday's practice.

Travis Kelce Has Tough Challenge Against Arizona
Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce has one of the tougher challenges ahead of him this week against the Arizona Cardinals. The Cardinals have only given up 28 catches to tight ends this season which is the fifth lowest in the NFL. However, Kelce has caught at least five passes per game every week […]
Kareem Hunt is Excellent Option in Week 10
Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt should have a productive game against the Cardinals in Week 10. Hunt has been on fire the last month and hasn't shown any signs of slowing down.

Sammy Watkins, Eric Berry Out Thursday
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins (foot) and safety Eric Berry (heel) are both out of practice for the second straight day on Thursday.

Is Lamar Miller Back to Fantasy RB2 Status?
I've been accused of being a Lamar Miller apologist over the last few seasons. Some of it is warranted, some of it way off-base. The crux of my pro-Miller argument has always been that you don't always need razzle-dazzle from the running back position. Sometimes it's perfectly acceptable to just be a consistent source of […]

Sammy Watkins, Eric Berry Not Practicing
Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Sammy Watkins (foot) and safety Eric Berry (heel) are not practicing on Wednesday. Watkins is dealing with a painful foot injury that required an MRI exam, so he's looking very questionable for Week 9 against the Cardinals.

Sammy Watkins Has MRI On Foot

Week 10 Kicker Streamers and Starts - 2018 Fantasy Tiers, Rankings

Waiver Wire Express - Week 10 Lightning Round
Week 9 felt a bit "chalkier" than other recent NFL slates, with many big names going off and very few lower-owned players coming on to vulture touchdowns from the big guns. There also weren't any notable injuries (as of Sunday evening), so the waiver wire will consist more of underappreciated assets rather than replacements. We here […]
