Who Should I Start? Jerry Jeudy or Xavier Worthy

Wednesday, November 11, 12:50 PM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy (hamstring) is on track to be available in the Week 10 contest on the road this Sunday against the Atlanta Falcons after being listed as a full participant in practice, according to the team's official website. Worthy left Sunday's Week 9 win early with a hamstring injury, but he was considered day-to-day earlier this week and should be good to go this weekend in Atlanta. He played a season-low 74% of the offensive snaps in Sunday's blowout win, catching all six of his targets for 48 yards. Worthy has not gone over 48 receiving yards in any of his last three games, but he has seen at least six targets in each of the last five games, and in seven of eight contests in 2026. The bad news is that he has found the end zone just once -- in Week 2 against the Indianapolis Colts -- and he will have more competition for targets from quarterback Patrick Mahomes now that Josh Downs is in the fold after being acquired on Tuesday in a trade with the Colts. Going into the Week 10 tilt against the Falcons, which is a solid matchup, Worthy is ranked as only the No. 58 fantasy receiver at RotoBaller after the Downs trade. The third-year receiver has an even lower fantasy ceiling and floor after posting a 33-278-1 line on 47 targets through the first eight games in 2026.
