The Chiefs say that WR Mecole Hardman (abdomen) won't practice for the second straight day.

It would be a shame to see Hardman miss time in the midst of a breakout that many fantasy managers have been waiting years to see. If he's forced out of Week 10, we could see a bump in manufactured touches to new arrival, Kadarius Toney.

The Giants are trading WR Kadarius Toney to the Chiefs for a third-round compensatory pick and a 2023 sixth-round pick.

This trade affects a number of players, but to what extent remains to be seen. Toney had clearly had a falling out with the new coaching regime, and trade rumors began to swirl almost immediately. The 2021 first-round pick has been sidelined for almost the entirety of this season, though the team continued to site health issues as the major reason he'd only appeared in one and a half games. Rookie Skyy Moore has received only 11 targets through six games and has yet to run 15 routes in any single game, so they may plug Toney into the role they were hoping to mold Moore into.

Chiefs WR JuJu Smith-Schuster, who's listed as questionable with quad and hamstring injuries, is expected to play tonight against the Raiders.

The target distribution outside of Travis Kelce is hard to swallow, but Smith-Schuster remains the best WR option for fantasy as long as he is on the field. If you kept him in your Flex spot throughout the weekend, hoping he would play, he should deliver a solid floor on MNF.

Chiefs WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling (abdomen) is planning to play Sunday against the Buccaneers.

It sounds like MVS is going to push and try to play through the injury and return for the first time since Week 1, but he only practiced on Wednesday, so even if he does play, he may very well be quite limited Sunday night. And that's another issue for fantasy purposes, he's playing Sunday night and isn't a reliable option due to the injury, so either way, he's probably best suited for the bench this week in your lineups. MVS is currently our WR68 this week.

Chiefs WR Mecole Hardman, who was carted off the practice field today, is being evaluated for a possible groin injury, according to a source.

Hardman is likely behind JuJu, MVS and the rookie Moore, but anyone in this offense who sees regular time can be fantasy-worthy. If Hardman were to miss time, it likely means Moore benefits the most as the two seemed to be battling for the team's WR3 spot.

In an offseason with change at wide receiver, the Kansas City Chiefs may have an under-the-radar signing working out so far this offseason.

WR Justin Watson signed with K.C. prior to the Tyreek Hill trade, but showed flashes during OTAs. “He’s been a pleasant surprise for me,” Mahomes said. “That dude can roll. He came down to Texas. I threw with him the first day, and I called (general manager Brett) Veach and I was like, ‘Wait, how fast is this guy?’ He was running so fast that I was late on my throws. He’s had two great days.”

Watson could not get on the field for offensive snaps in Tampa Bay, but finds himself going from the G.O.A.T. to a QB who is well on his way to challenging for that title. Unlike in Chicago or Atlanta where being a wideout gets you onto the field, competing in Kansas City is great for Watson's personal growth and worst-case, great audition film for his next team.

Watson has dynasty appeal for now, but with so much unknown in K.C., his fantasy value could skyrocket.

Chiefs HC Andy Reid told reporters Thursday that WR Mecole Hardman is dealing with a 'tweaked hamstring.'

Hardman has an opportunity to be a starting wideout being the senior member of the Chiefs WR room based on time with the team. A speedster with a hammy injury is never good, but it coming in May makes it easier to handle and let rest.

The Kansas City Chiefs are signing WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling to a three-year deal.

MVS is not Tyreek Hill, but in terms of speed threats he is at least in the picture. Valdes-Scantling has been hit-or-miss with Aaron Rodgers, but at least he has a chance to receive consistent quality deep targets from another elite quarterback.

Packers WR Marquez Valdes-Scantling (back) is doubtful to play Saturday against the San Francisco 49ers.

MVS's status means Randall Cobb may have to play a bigger role than anticipated in his return. Aaron Jones also factors in.
