Who Should I Start? Xavier Worthy or Emeka Egbuka

According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy (shoulder) is hoping to return next week when the Chiefs face the New York Giants. Rapoport noted that if Worthy can suit up, he would be playing with a torn labrum. However, the star wideout intends to wear a harness if he were to play. This week, Worthy was able to return to practice, which is an excellent sign that he is nearing a return. The second-year wideout suffered this injury during the opening possession of the first game of the season against the Chargers. As a rookie, Worthy flashed big-play upside in the Kansas City offense, totaling nine touchdowns with over 700 yards from scrimmage. This weekend, Marquise Brown and JuJu Smith-Schuster figure to lead the passing attack.

Tampa Bay Buccaneers wide receiver Emeka Egbuka built on his strong NFL debut with another good game in Week 2. He helped the Bucs overcome the Texans in Houston on Monday Night with four catches for 29 yards and his third touchdown of the season. Egbuka was second on the team in targets with seven passes thrown his way by Baker Mayfield. He could have had an even bigger game if he had been able to bring in either of his two deep targets, so the potential for even more production is still there for the exciting rookie out of Ohio State. He and the Bucs take on the Jets in Week 3, and if he continues to be the team's second receiver, he'll once again bring a very high ceiling, especially with Sauce Gardner focused on locking down Mike Evans. Egbuka now has eight catches on 13 targets for 96 yards and three touchdowns in his two NFL games.
