Christian Kirk an Iffy Flex Start vs. the Ravens

Saturday, October 4, 11:08 AM

Houston Texans wide receiver Christian Kirk caught three of four targets for 20 yards last week in his team's 26-0 win over the Titans, and he will look to continue to work his way into a volume role against the Ravens this week, after missing the first two weeks of the season. He played 61% of snaps in Week 4 after playing 67% in Week 3. With the Texans playing from ahead, they didn't throw the ball as muh in Week 4, though, so his targets decreased. The veteran wideout continues to find a way to carve out a role in Houston's underwhelming passing offense, and he seems to be the primary slot option and secondary receiver behind Nico Collins. The Ravens have been very beatable through the air so he does have potential flier upside even though his WR43 ranking on RotoBaller means he's not an ideal flex solution.

Xavier Worthy News

Xavier Worthy Active on Monday Night

Monday, October 6, 7:29 PM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy (ankle, shoulder) is officially active, as expected, for the Monday night game against the Jacksonville Jaguars to close out Week 5 action, according to Matt McMullen of Chiefs.com. Worthy dislocated his right shoulder on the first offensive drive of 2025 in Week 1 and then missed Weeks 2 and 3. The speedy 22-year-old returned in last week's win over the Baltimore Ravens, but he was added to Saturday's injury report due to swelling in his ankle. The issue isn't serious for Worthy, though, and he'll be available as one of the team's top offensive weapons against the 3-1 Jags. Worthy caught five of his eight targets for 83 yards in Week 4 and added two carries for 38 yards while playing 59% of the snaps. He could be even more involved on Monday night in his second game back from his shoulder injury.
