Xavier Worthy Expected to Miss a Few Days With Shoulder Sprain

Monday, August 3, 9:22 AM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy (shoulder) is expected to miss only a few days after suffering a shoulder sprain during Saturday's practice. Head coach Andy Reid provided the update Monday, according to Matt Derrick, after Worthy sat out the team's first padded session of camp. The 23-year-old is coming off a difficult second season, catching 42 passes for 532 yards and one touchdown in 14 games. Worthy dislocated his right shoulder in the 2025 opener and underwent surgery in January to repair a torn labrum, so another shoulder issue is worth monitoring even with the short timetable. There is no indication that the current sprain will threaten his availability for the regular season, and Kansas City has little reason to rush him back this early in camp. Worthy's fantasy outlook remains unchanged for now, though his participation will be worth checking once the Chiefs return to practice.

Keon Coleman's Price Finally Matches the Risk

Friday, July 24, 10:51 AM

Buffalo Bills wide receiver Keon Coleman has fallen far enough that the price finally matches the risk. He caught 38 passes for 404 yards and four touchdowns on 59 targets last season, starting only six games. A wrist injury cost him time, and being late to team meetings cost him trust and opportunities. Buffalo did not clear the runway this offseason, either. DJ Moore joined Khalil Shakir atop the receiver room, while rookie Skyler Bell added another option. Still, head coach Joe Brady praised Coleman's offseason and plans to use him both inside and outside. RotoBaller ranks him WR92 in dynasty and WR109 for redraft, so nobody is paying for a breakout. That makes him a reasonable buy-low throw-in for rebuilders and a late dart in deeper drafts. Contenders just should not enter the season needing him in the lineup.
