Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Carson Wentz signed with the organization this offseason after spending the last few months of the 2023 season with the Los Angeles Rams. The former No. 2 overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft is obviously behind Patrick Mahomes on the depth chart, but Wentz working with Andy Reid could be a great thing for his career. "It was good to get him in this position and if he has an opportunity to play, he has an opportunity to play, Reid said. "Carson looks sharp. He's picking things up fast, smart guy, and he fits in well. Seems like a heck of a person, and he's good in that [quarterback] room." While Mahomes has remained healthy for most of his career, Wentz could be a high-end backup quarterback to stash in deep Superflex and two-QB leagues. The Chiefs now have plenty of weapons, and if anyone can dial up a game plan that leads to solid production from Wentz, it's Reid.

Cincinnati Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow threw for 234 yards, one touchdown, and one interception off 26-for-37 passing in Sunday's meeting with the Eagles. He added three carries for 15 yards. The Bengals were without Tee Higgins (quadriceps), who had three touchdowns in the previous three games. However, the signal-caller still had an acceptable showing, although his efforts couldn't bring his team to .500. Hopefully, Higgins will be healthy enough to return for the Week 9 matchup with the visiting Las Vegas Raiders. Still, even if Higgins isn't back on the field, Burrow should remain a starting fantasy option.
