The Philadelphia Eagles are "looking to get A.J. Brown involved more and early" on Sunday against the Kansas City Chiefs, according to NFL Network's Mike Garafolo. He noted that the Eagles had several plays dialed up for Brown to get more targets last week, but they didn't work out, and the star receiver finished Week 1 with just one reception. Based on Garafolo's comments, it appears that last week should be treated as an anomaly, and Brown will be more involved in Week 2. An increased target share could come naturally for Brown as the Eagles will be without Dallas Goedert (knee), who caught seven passes in the season opener.

According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy (shoulder) is hoping to return next week when the Chiefs face the New York Giants. Rapoport noted that if Worthy can suit up, he would be playing with a torn labrum. However, the star wideout intends to wear a harness if he were to play. This week, Worthy was able to return to practice, which is an excellent sign that he is nearing a return. The second-year wideout suffered this injury during the opening possession of the first game of the season against the Chargers. As a rookie, Worthy flashed big-play upside in the Kansas City offense, totaling nine touchdowns with over 700 yards from scrimmage. This weekend, Marquise Brown and JuJu Smith-Schuster figure to lead the passing attack.
