A.J. Brown Worth Taking the Gamble on with Tough Matchup

Friday, November 7, 10:44 PM

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown (hamstring) was a full participant at practice on Friday and is expected to play against Green Bay. Brown was sidelined for one game before the team's bye, but just before that he had his best performance of the season with 121 receiving yards and two touchdowns against the Vikings. On Monday, he'll return to action at Lambeau Field to challenge a Packers defense that has only allowed one 100-yard game to receivers this year (George Pickens in Week 4). While Brown hasn't necessarily lived up to the hype many had for him before the season, he needs to be in lineups given his last couple of showings. Temper expectations, but play him as a solid WR2 this week.

Xavier Worthy News

Xavier Worthy Outside WR2 Territory Against Buffalo

Saturday, November 1, 5:01 AM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy will take on the Buffalo Bills in Week 9. Worthy caught five passes for 53 yards in the 28-7 win over the Washington Commanders in Week 8. Last week marked Worthy's third game of the season with at least five receptions. With Rashee Rice stepping back into the WR1 role and Travis Kelce reemerging as a top option, the speedster may continue to be relegated to a tertiary role in the Kansas City offense. That said, Worthy was able to put up a decent stat line regardless of the blowout, and he may be able to build on that this week. Worthy and the Chiefs face the Bills, who have allowed the ninth-fewest points to opposing wide receivers this season. Even with his diminished workload, Worthy is still an explosive player and can break off a long play at any moment. Worthy is ranked WR28 in our RotoBaller Half-PPR rankings, placing him just outside WR2 but firmly in WR3/Flex territory this week.
