Who Should I Start For Fantasy Football Week 17? Hollywood Brown, Xavier Worthy, DeAndre Hopkins

Unfortunately, the Kansas City Chiefs have played most of the year without their best wide receiver. Rashee Rice suffered a season-ending knee injury in the Week 4 win over the Los Angeles Chargers. However, Marquise Brown, Xavier Worthy, and DeAndre Hopkins have stepped up for Patrick Mahomes and the passing attack. Each had massive moments […]

Chiefs Defense With Tough Matchup In Week 17

The Kansas City Chiefs defense will take on the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 17. The Chiefs defense held the Houston Texans to 19 points while collecting two interceptions and two sacks in Week 16. The Chiefs secondary has been active lately, catching six interceptions in the past two weeks, but they may have their hands […]

Harrison Butker Could Be More Involved Against The Steelers In Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs kicker Harrison Butker will face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 17. Butker had a great bounce-back game last week against the Texans, nailing both field goal attempts and all three extra-point attempts. The Chiefs kicker should have the opportunity to build on that solid performance against a tough Steelers defense. If the […]

Marquise Brown In Flex Consideration For Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown will face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 17. Brown returned from injured reserve in Week 16 against the Houston Texans. Brown was second on the team in catches and targets on 27% of snaps in his first game back. The 27-year-old demonstrated his ability to get open in […]

D.J. Humphries Ruled Out For Week 17

According to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, the Kansas City Chiefs have ruled out left tackle D.J. Humphries (hamstring) for Wednesday's matchup against the Pittsburgh Steelers.

DeAndre Hopkins To Play Secondary Role In Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins will face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 17. Hopkins put forth a lackluster performance last week, catching four passes for 37 yards against the Texans. The 32-year-old looked like a solid fantasy asset after his acquisition at the trade deadline, but his production has since fallen off. With […]

Xavier Worthy Off Injury Report, Will Act As Chiefs WR1 In Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy is off the injury report and will be ready to face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 17.

Kareem Hunt Outside RB2 Range In Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs running back Kareem Hunt will face the Pittsburgh Steelers in Week 17. Hunt has been splitting opportunities with Isiah Pacheco since his return from the injured reserve, but the split has favored Hunt. The veteran running back handled 11 carries for 55 yards and a touchdown in Week 16 against the Texans. […]

Isiah Pacheco In Flex Territory For Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs running back Isiah Pacheco will face the Pittsburgh Steelers on Christmas Day in Week 17. Pacheco was expected to be the team's starting running back upon returning from the injured reserve, but that has not been the case over the last few games. The 25-year-old took a backseat to Kareem Hunt in […]

Patrick Mahomes Off The Injury Report, Ready For Matchup In The Steel City

Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes is off the injury report and ready to face the Pittsburgh Steelers on Christmas Day in Week 17. Mahomes was listed on the injury report with an ankle injury but practiced fully all week and has been removed ahead of the matchup. The 29-year-old had a good game against […]

Travis Kelce To Face Steelers In Week 17

Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce will face the Pittsburgh Steelers on Christmas Day in Week 17. Kelce had another disappointing performance last week, catching five passes for 30 yards on seven targets. The 35-year-old finished third on the team in targets but was fifth in receiving yards. Kelce will look to be more […]

Chris Jones Questionable For Wednesday's Game

Kansas City Chiefs defensive tackle Chris Jones (calf) is listed as questionable for the team's Week 17 game on Wednesday on Christmas Day versus the Pittsburgh Steelers. Jones didn't practice on Sunday or Monday after straining his calf in Saturday's win over the Houston Texans in Week 16. On a short week, the 30-year-old defensive […]
