Xavier Worthy is Fine and Expected to Play Against the Jaguars

Monday, October 6, 9:30 AM

Kansas City Chiefs second-year receiver out of Texas, Xavier Worthy (ankle/shoulder), turned his ankle in practice over the weekend, and according to NFL Insider Ian Rapoport, he is fine and is expected to play, as the reports from Sunday were more precautionary than anything else. Worthy missed two games with a shoulder injury and returned in Week 4, where he delivered 14.60 fantasy points on five catches for 83 yards in his return, having only played 59 percent of the snaps. As Worthy continues to ramp up while playing with a shoulder brace on, fantasy managers can fire him up as a WR3/flex option for the time being until we see his snap count increase. Worthy has the upside to work his way into WR2 territory, but for the time being, we need to see his snap count rise before that is the case.

Rome Odunze in Smash Spot Against Las Vegas

Saturday, September 27, 12:07 PM

Chicago Bears wideout Rome Odunze gets a homecoming matchup this week in Las Vegas, where he grew up. The second-year receiver is off to a blazing start, catching 16 of 27 targets for 227 yards and a league-leading four touchdowns. He's established himself as Chicago's WR1, logging a 95% snap share and running a route on 100% of dropbacks. Odunze now draws a favorable matchup against a Raiders defense that has surrendered the fourth-most fantasy points to wide receivers in 2025. Big plays have already burned this secondary, with Terry McLaurin, Kayshon Boutte, and Quentin Johnston all finding success. In a game projected to feature plenty of scoring, Odunze profiles as a low-end WR1 for Week 4.
