Sources: The Chiefs are activating WR Marquise "Hollywood" Brown and he will officially make his season-debut on Saturday vs the Texans.

It feels exceedingly likely that Hollywood Brown will be limited in his first in-game action of the season, but even light usage could lower the floor of his teammates. Hopkins and Worthy project as a fringe WR3/4 while Brown should stay on benches for now, but could end up being viable in Week 17.

Patrick Mahomes will “most likely end up playing” on Saturday, per Coach Reid.

There’s also a “good chance” Hollywood Brown will play.

We'd like a little more reassurance here, but at least we have some hope that Mahomes will be available to elevate the offense. Mahomes should be benched in favor of a streamer in most fantasy formats.

The Chiefs plan to activate Marquise ‘Hollywood’ Brown (reserve/injured, shoulder) for Saturday’s game vs. Houston assuming everything continues trending positively this week, per sources.

Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown has received final clearance to practice, paving the way for him to play before the regular season ends.

Brown, who is recovering from surgery to repair his SC joint, should have his window opened Friday or Monday. The team will be cautious.

If Brown were cleared by Week 17, he would be incredibly tough to start in pretty much any sort of fantasy league with Championships on the line. However, he could be an interesting click for Playoff-only leagues if he can ramp up in time.

Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown is not expected to play during the regular season due to his shoulder injury.

Brown needs surgery on his shoulder. He was already placed on injured reserve and now his season ends before even taking a regular season snap with the Chiefs. This should means plenty of deep targets for rookie Xavier Worthy, as well as work in the run game, as we saw against the Ravens. Rashee Rice will gobble up targets as the main weapon for Patrick Mahomes. Unfortunate news for Hollywood.

The Chiefs are placing WR Marquise "Hollywood" Brown on IR, and he will undergo surgery to repair his dislocated SC joint. After multiple imaging studies, it was determined that, although Hollywood felt better, his injury was not healing correctly. Without corrective surgery, he would risk a more serious long-term injury.

The surgery is scheduled for Monday with Dr. Peter Millett in Vail, CO, and the Chiefs will monitor his rehab progress throughout the season.

Looks like the coast is clear for rookie Worthy to try to repeat his Week 1 success. For as long as Brown is out, Worthy and Rice can be loaded up into weekly lineups.

He's almost to the four-week mark, according to Rapoport and can now at least laugh without pain, according to the post. It's no lock he's back for Week 2, and with the Chiefs seemingly fine with their young group of receivers, it's possible Brown is held out again for Week 2. The original timetable was up to six weeks. Rice and Worthy will likely be the Chiefs top-two receivers.

On a conference call, NFL’s Jeff Miller day they are closely monitoring the situation for Chiefs WR Rashee Rice, saying they’ll follow the legal developments.

My read: With his legal situation not yet settled, Rice remains eligible to begin play this season.

If no changes come soon in Rice's criminal case, there's a very good chance he is eligible through the entirety of the 2024 season. He is currently ranked as a back-end WR2 here at 4for4.

Kadarius Toney’s time with the Chiefs has come to an end.

According to multiple reports, Kanas City is waiving Toney on Tuesday.

Reports say the Chiefs had been looking for a trade partner for Toney. Toney struggled in 2023 with multiple drops leading to interceptions, the story pointed out. The Chiefs will be fine at WR with youngsters like Rice, Worthy and Moore.
