More Snaps, Opportunities Coming for Tyquan Thornton?

Tuesday, March 10, 1:40 PM

The Kansas City Chiefs re-signed wide receiver Tyquan Thornton to a two-year, $11 million deal on Monday night, and ESPN's Nate Taylor thinks the Chiefs "should be able to offer him more snaps and more opportunities." The 25-year-old was one of KC's best receivers in 2025, especially early on when both Xavier Worthy (shoulder) and Rashee Rice (suspension) were out. Thornton had a career-high 438 receiving yards and three touchdowns on 19 catches in his first year working with quarterback Patrick Mahomes. "He's the GOAT in my eyes, man," Thornton said of Mahomes. "He's a competitor, and he makes me so much better. It was an honor to go out there and catch those passes from him." As things currently stand, Thornton looks like the WR3 behind Rice and Worthy. His big-play potential is intriguing, though, as a late-round flier in what should be an improved Chiefs offense.

Tory Horton Should be Ready for Training Camp

Monday, March 30, 7:22 PM

Seattle Seahawks head coach Mike Macdonald said that wide receiver Tory Horton (shin, groin) probably won't be at full strength for the start of the offseason program this spring, but he is expected to be ready for training camp in late July, per John Boyle of Seahawks.com. Horton, a fifth-rounder last year out of Colorado State, got off to a great start in his first year in the NFL, catching 13 passes for 161 yards and five touchdowns in eight games while also averaging 14.9 yards per punt return, including a 95-yard touchdown. But the 23-year-old pass-catcher only ended up playing in eight games for Seattle. Horton should be healthy for the start of his sophomore season in the NFL, and he should have a bigger role on offense in Year 2, but he will still open the 2026 season as at least the WR4 behind Jaxon Smith-Njigba, Rashid Shaheed, and veteran Cooper Kupp. Horton is primarily a big-play wideout to stash in dynasty/keeper leagues.
