Who Should I Start? Tyquan Thornton or Malachi Corley

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Tyquan Thornton scored his first touchdown since Week 17 of 2022 in Sunday's 20-17 loss to the visiting Philadelphia Eagles. The Baylor alum connected with quarterback Patrick Mahomes on just 2-of-5 targets in Week 2, but he made them count -- syncing up on a 49-yard score where the wideout went streaking down the middle of the field. Despite the inefficiency when doing so, Kansas City is using the 25-year-old as their deep threat. He's the perfect specimen for that role with blazing 4.28 40-yard dash speed, and the Chiefs are utilizing three-wide receiver sets frequently. It seems that Xavier Worthy (shoulder) will return sooner than anticipated, so Thornton's elevated snap share might not be for long. Still, he matched Marquise Brown's total of 45 from over the weekend and ran in front of JuJu Smith-Schuster for the first time.

Wide receiver Malachi Corley is signing with the Cleveland Browns, according to a report from Adam Schefter. The second-year pro appeared in nine games for the New York Jets as a rookie, mostly as a special teams player, but failed to make the club this year. Corley will join the Browns' practice squad to begin the season, but could work his way onto the active roster at some point this season due the club's lack of depth at the position.
