Chiefs continue to bring along WR Josh Gordon

Oct 19, 2021

Receiver Josh Gordon was active for his second game with Kansas City on Sunday, but he didn’t get much playing time.

After Gordon was on the field for just nine snaps in his Week Five debut, he ended up playing just 11 in the Chiefs’ 31-13 victory over Washington. Gordon didn’t receive a target in the contest.

“Yeah, it just didn’t work out that way, but we’ll keep bringing him along,” head coach Andy Reid said on Monday, via ArrowheadPride.com.

Fantasy Impact:

Reid thinks Gordon is still getting up to speed and comfortable in the Chiefs system. It's hard for a player, even with Gordon's talent, to step right into significant playing time on a new team mid-season. But that said, Gordon could have some upside value in fantasy leagues down the line - WR2 is still a need for the Chiefs.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
