Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins caught two passes for 29 yards in the 27-20 win against the Las Vegas Raiders. Hopkins joined the Chiefs this week after being traded from the Tennessee Titans. Hopkins was being eased into the offense, considering his lack of knowledge of the Kansas City playbook, but he will be more involved moving forward. The Chiefs traded for the veteran receiver, and Andy Reid is among the best at scheming plays for his playmakers, so fantasy success should be on the horizon. The height of Hopkins' ceiling in this offense is still unknown, but he could be successful as soon as Week 9. The Chiefs face the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, who rank 28th in fantasy points allowed to opposing wide receivers this season. Hopkins could be in for a big game with such a favorable matchup. Hopkins should be viewed as a high-upside flex play until we see a more defined role for him in the Kansas City offense.

Miami Dolphins wide receiver Tyreek Hill caught six of nine targets for 72 yards in Sunday's 28-27 loss to the Arizona Cardinals. Hill's performance marked his best since Week 1, and his longest catch came on a 30-yard reception down the right sideline. This wasn't the performance fantasy managers were hoping for with the return of Tua Tagovailoa (concussion). Although the yardage totals weren't the best, seeing Hill garner nine targets was encouraging. Overall, Miami's offense looked much better with Tagovailoa under center than the previous four games. Miami has several great matchups over the next several weeks, so better days are ahead for the 30-year-old. Next week will not be one of them when they travel to Buffalo next Sunday to face a Bills defense that has been stingy against wide receivers.
