BALLER MOVE: Start in 12+ Team Leagues
POSITIONAL VALUE: WR3
ANALYSIS: Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy rates as a high-end WR3 heading into his team's Week 3 matchup against the Atlanta Falcons.
Worthy is a high-risk, high-reward player at this point. In Week 1, he turned his three touches into two touchdowns, but then in Week 2 against the Bengals he turned the same number of touches into no scores and just 22 yards.
Xavier Worthy has been targeted on 14.8 percent of his routes. Not the best!

Until we see a higher snap rate and target share for Worthy, it will be hard to justify playing him in 10-team leagues and his PPR value is lower than it is in standard scoring leagues, but if you need a player who could kick it into high gear and go off for a long touchdown in a 12-teamer, Worthy's as good a bet as any.
Just make some to temper expectations. He's not yet a consistent part of the team's offense.
