Who Should I Start? Tyquan Thornton or Gage Larvadain

Saturday, November 8, 9:53 AM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyquan Thornton has seen his playing time dip over the past few weeks, playing just 23% of offensive snaps since Week 6. Thornton had been a pretty important piece of Kansas City's offense during the first month of the season, using his electric speed to help stretch the field and create explosive plays. The 25-year-old caught 13 of his 24 targets for 272 yards and three touchdowns while playing 60% of the team's snaps over the first five weeks. His 20.9 yards per reception was the highest in the league over that span out of receivers with at least 10 receptions. Rashee Rice's return and Xavier Worthy getting healthier played a part in Thornton's role diminishing, but he was a useful player and could see more snaps after the team's Week 10 bye.

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Gage Larvadain carried the ball once for a four-yard touchdown and caught two of his three targets for 23 yards in a 30-10 win over the Carolina Panthers in preseason action on Friday. Larvadain punched in a short touchdown in the third quarter to give the Browns a 21-7 lead. The undrafted rookie out of South Carolina also handled two punt returns, but he ultimately was forced from the game early with what is being called a lower-body injury. Larvadain will hope to be ready to return to the field in time for the Browns' next preseason game, which is set for next Saturday against the Philadelphia Eagles.
