Chiefs special teams coordinator Dave Toub said Thursday that he expects Harrison Butker to kick against the Bills this weekend, "as long as we don't have any setbacks." Butker has been sidelined since Week 1 and was limited in Wednesday's practice. We'll monitor his status over the next few days.

Chiefs K Harrison Butker (ankle) got in a limited practice on Wednesday. We'll see if he can make it back for this weekend's showdown vs. the Bills.

Giants WRs Kadarius Toney (hamstring) and Kenny Golladay (knee) remained sidelined on Wednesday. Neither guy seems likely to play vs. the Ravens this weekend.

Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes delivered 292 passing yards and 4 TD passes in Monday night's comeback win over the Raiders. He added 28 yards on 4 rushing attempts to finished 2nd in fantasy points among QBs for the week. Mahomes now sits 4th among QBs for the season (possibly depending on your league's scoring). Week 6 brings a challenging matchup with the Bills, but also potential shootout conditions.

A week after climbing to a season-high 28% of offensive snaps in the win over Tampa, Chiefs WR Skyy Moore got to 35% in Monday night's win over the Raiders. He still trailed well behind Marquez Valdes-Scantling and JuJu Smith-Schuster but pulled closer to Mecole Hardman, who did come off the field in the 2nd half with a foot or heel injury. That might have factored into some of the snap split between the 2 receivers. Either way, Moore is not yet playing enough to become a fantasy factor. But a continued increase in opportunities could put him in the mix over the 2nd half of the season. He's an interesting stash in deeper fantasy football leagues.

A week after dominating backfield time in the win over the Bucs, Chiefs RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire once again fell behind Jerick McKinnon in snaps (38-31) in Monday night's win over the Raiders. He still led K.C. in rushing attempts but took his 9 carries for just 15 yards (1.5 per attempt). CEH also edged McKinnon in targets, 4-3, catching 3 balls for 20 yards. He narrowly missed reaching the end zone on 2 occasions. McKinnon rushed 8 times for 53 yards (6.6) and caught 2 passes for 19 yards. Isiah Pacheco logged just 1 carry for no gain. The Tampa Bay game remains the only time this year that K.C.'s backfield work has swung so strongly in Edwards-Helaire's favor.

Chiefs TE Travis Kelce caught 7 balls for just 25 yards in Monday night's win over the Raiders but caught all 4 of QB Patrick Mahomes' TD passes. Kelce nabbed scores of 1, 4, 8 and 1 yards, while tying for the team target lead with 8. Marquez Valdes-Scantling joined him, catching 6 of 8 targets for 90 yards. JuJu Smith-Schuster matched the duo in looks but caught only 3 for 33 yards.

Chiefs K Harrison Butker (ankle) is out for Monday night's game vs. the Raiders. Matthew Wright will kick again for Kansas City and is a fine fantasy football spot start.

Chiefs K Harrison Butker (ankle) has yet to practice this week. He looks unlikely to kick vs. the Raiders on Monday night. Those duties will again fall to Matthew Wright.

Giants WRs Kadarius Toney (hamstring) and Kenny Golladay (knee) did not travel with the team to London and are out for Sunday morning's game vs. the Packers. Toney got in a limited practice on Wednesday but then didn't practice on Thursday. Golladay missed both days with his MCL sprain. We'll see if they can make it back for Week 6.

Chiefs K Harrison Butker (ankle) did not practice on Thursday. Fantasy owners can't be banking on him playing vs. the Raiders on Monday night. Matthew Wright will again kick for Kansas City if Butker is out.

After putting in a limited practice on Wednesday, Giants WR Kadarius Toney (hamstring) did not practice on Thursday. We'll see if this is a setback or a planned day off. Regardless, Toney shouldn't be in your Week 5 fantasy plans. WRs Wan'Dale Robinson (knee) and Richie James (ankle) were both limited Thursday and seem on track to play vs. the Packers Sunday morning.

Giants WRs Kadarius Toney (hamstring) and Wan'Dale Robinson (knee) were limited in Wednesday's practice. That gives them a shot to return for Sunday morning's game vs. the Packers. WRs Richie James (ankle) and Kenny Golladay (knee) did not practice on Wednesday.

Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes went 23-of-37 passing for 249 yards and 3 TDs with 1 INT in Sunday night's loss at Tampa Bay. Mahomes found TE Travis Kelce, TE Jody Fortson and RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire for TDs. Kelce (10) and WR JuJu Smith-Schuster (8) led the Chiefs in targets and receptions. A Week 5 home date with the Raiders looks even more favorable for the K.C. offense.

Chiefs RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire delivered a 19-92-1 rushing line and caught a 2-yard TD flip from QB Patrick Mahomes in Sunday night's win over the Buccaneers. The production was obviously terrific. It was particularly noteworthy, though, because Edwards-Helaire went from trailing Jerick McKinnon's Week 3 playing time to getting more snaps than McKinnon and Isiah Pacheco combined at Tampa. Pacheco did work in for a season-high 63 yards on 11 carries. He has now gotten 11+ carries in each of the 2 games K.C. has won by 10+ points. he totaled 5 carries across the narrow win over the Chargers and the Week 3 loss at Indy. McKinnon carried just twice at Tampa and drew a single target, totaling 0 yards.

Giants HC Brian Daboll said Monday that WRs Kadarius Toney (hamstring) and Wan'Dale Robinson (knee) are "making progress." Both guys will be re-evaluated on Thursday to see if they have a chance to play vs. the Packers this weekend.

Chiefs WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling (abdomen) is active for tonight’s game vs. the Bucs. He got in just 2 limited practices this week and probably won’t be at 100% tonight. MVS isn’t a recommended Week 4 fantasy play.

Chiefs WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling (abdomen) "plans to play" vs. the Bucs tonight, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler. We'd try not to use MVS in season-long fantasy lineups at less than 100%.

Chiefs K Harrison Butker (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday night's game vs. the Bucs. Kansas City will elevate K Matthew Wright from the practice squad for that one.

Chiefs K Harrison Butker (ankle) is questionable for Sunday night’s game vs. the Bucs. He didn’t practice on Thursday or Friday after a limited workout on Wednesday. Look elsewhere for your Week 4 fantasy kicker.
