Eagles Think Makai Lemon Can Play Outside
New Eagles WR Makai Lemon ran 75.6% of his college routes from the slot. But the Eagles believe he can also kick to the outside as a pro. That'll be key to keeping Lemon on the field in 2-WR sets.

The Packers are trading WR Dontayvion Wicks to the Eagles in exchange for 2026 fifth- and 2027 sixth-round picks, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Philadelphia is also giving Wicks a one-year, $12.5 million extension that keeps him signed through the 2027 season. Wicks has teased fantasy owners with a handful of strong outings over the last four seasons and registered strong marks in advanced metrics like targets per route and yards per route. But he never carved out a consistent role in Green Bay. There's opportunity for him to do so in Philadelphia ... if WR A.J. Brown is traded.
The Eagles are signing WR Marquise "Hollywood" Brown to a one-year deal worth up to $6.5 million, according to Jordan Schultz. Brown spent the past two years with the Chiefs (though a shoulder injury cost him nearly all of 2024), after two in Arizona and three in Baltimore.
Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (illness) is inactive for today’s game vs. the Raiders. He finishes his sophomore season with just 532 yards and one TD across 14 games. JuJu Smith-Schuster and Marquise Brown figure to operate as the top two WRs in this Chris Oladokun-led offense.
Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (illness) is listed as doubtful for Sunday’s game vs. the Raiders. His absence leaves JuJu Smith-Schuster and Marquise Brown as Kansas City’s likely top two WRs. We’ll see if WR Jalen Royals gets involved. But you should continue to ignore this group in Week 18 fantasy lineups.
The Chiefs placed WR Rashee Rice on IR with his concussion. He'll miss the final two games of the season. It's probably for the best for fantasy managers: Rice would have been tough to trust with QB Chris Oladokun. WR Tyquan Thornton (concussion) is also landing on IR, leaving Xavier Worthy, JuJu Smith-Schuster, and Marquise Brown as Kansas City's likely top three WRs for the final two weeks. We'll see if rookie WR Jalen Royals gets involved, but this is a WR corps to avoid in all fantasy formats.
Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (concussion) won't practice on Tuesday, HC Andy Reid said. That leaves Rice as a long shot to clear protocol in time for Thursday night's game vs. the Broncos. WR Tyquan Thornton (concussion) also remains sidelined and will likely miss the Denver game. That'll leave Xavier Worthy, Marquise Brown, and JuJu Smith-Schuster as Kansas City's top three WRs, with Chris Oladokun at QB. The Chiefs are currently implied for 12.0 points.
The Chiefs believe QB Gardner Minshew tore his left ACL in the loss to the Titans, according to Chiefs Digest's Matt Derrick. Minshew is scheduled for an MRI to confirm, but he likely becomes the second straight Chiefs QB to suffer a season-ending knee injury. Kansas City will be down to QB Chris Oladokun the rest of the way. The 28-year-old, 2022 seventh-round pick had not thrown a regular-season pass before going 11-of-16 for 111 yards vs. the Titans today. Other than maybe WR Rashee Rice and TE Travis Kelce, the Chiefs' passing game will be hands-off against the Broncos in Week 17.
Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (concussion) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Titans. He didn’t practice all week after reporting symptoms sometime after last weekend’s loss to the Chargers. Rice should have a good chance to make it back for Week 17, but we’ll track his progress next week. WR Tyquan Thornton (concussion) has also been ruled out for the Titans game, leaving Xavier Worthy, Marquise Brown, and JuJu Smith-Schuster as the likely top three WRs in this Gardner Minshew-led offense.
Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (concussion) remained sidelined for Thursday's practice. He's now a major long shot to be cleared in time for this weekend's game vs. the Titans and should be on fantasy benches. WR Tyquan Thornton (concussion) is also likely to miss Week 16, leaving Xavier Worthy, Marquise Brown, and JuJu Smith-Schuster as Gardner Minshew's top three WRs.
Chiefs WR Marquise Brown (personal) is out for Sunday’s game vs. the Chargers. We don’t have any other details on his situation. Brown has been a part-time player for Kansas City for a while now, averaging just 2.3 targets over his last four games. There’s not a huge fantasy impact here.
Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy struggled again in the loss to the Broncos. He went 3-25-0 on 5 targets, outproduced by Hollywood Brown who went 4-40-0. Worthy hasn’t finished higher than PPR WR20 in any week and hasn’t topped WR40 in any week since Rashee Rice returned from suspension. Worthy simply isn’t startable in fantasy anymore.
The Chiefs have downgraded WR Xavier Worthy to out for Sunday night's game against the Giants, and he is not traveling with the team, according to multiple reports. Kansas City initially listed Worthy as questionable after a limited practice participation all week. But the team has clearly deemed the wideout not yet ready to play.
WR Marquise Brown led the Chiefs in receptions for the second straight game Sunday but managed only 5 receptions for 30 yards in the loss to the Eagles. His five targets tied WR Tyquan Thornton and TE Noah Gray for second on the team, one behind TE Travis Kelce. Brown also matched Thornton in total snaps (45) and pass routes (30), each running one more route than third WR JuJu Smith-Schuster.
Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (shoulder) has been downgraded to out for Sunday's game vs. the Eagles. He was originally listed as doubtful after getting in limited practices on Thursday and Friday. Worthy was never going to play in this one, but it does seem like he has a shot to return for Week 3. His absence on Sunday leaves Marquise Brown as Kansas City's No. 1 WR -- and a top-25 play in the Week 2 WR rankings.
Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (shoulder) is listed as doubtful for Sunday’s game vs. the Eagles. He practiced on Thursday and Friday, and the fact that he’s not already ruled out bodes well for his chances of playing Week 3. But he’ll miss this weekend’s game, leaving Marquise Brown, JuJu Smith-Schuster, and Tyquan Thornton as Kansas City’s top 3 WRs. WR Jalen Royals (knee) is out.
Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy won't have surgery on his injured shoulder and won't be placed on IR, HC Andy Reid said Wednesday. That means the team expects Worthy to miss fewer than four games.
NFL Network's Ian Rapoport reports that Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy suffered a dislocated shoulder in Friday night's loss to the Chargers and is still seeking a second opinion on how to proceed. It's not yet clear how much time Worthy will miss.
