Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (hamstring) practiced in full all week and no longer appears on the injury report.
Huddle Up: Rice has been the top target in the Chiefs' passing attack since he returned from his suspension. Despite being held in check last week, he can be used as a WR2 in Week 15.

Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (knee) practiced in full on Friday, Dec. 12, and no longer appears on the injury report.
Huddle Up: Patrick Mahomes is good to go and has no lingering issues for Week 15. He can remain a QB1 in your lineups until told otherwise.
Posted 12/12/2025 7:04 pm GMT
Kansas City Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown (personal) is expected to miss Week 15, according to head coach Andy Reid.
Huddle Up: Brown has not been much of a factor in the passing attack since Rashee Rice returned to the lineup. He wasn't likely to be in your lineup, but the few targets he did get should help Rice and Travis Kelce get a few more.

Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (hamstring) was a full participant in practice Wednesday, Dec. 10.
Huddle Up: While Rice has been the unquestioned No. 1 receiver for Kansas City since making his season debut, he has been bottled up by both the Broncos and Texans. The Chargers represent a tough challenge in Week 15, making Rice more of a WR2 option this weekend.

Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (knee) was a full participant in practice Wednesday, Dec. 10.
Huddle Up: Mahomes has been a boom-or-bust play this season, lighting up some of the league's worst defenses and struggling against tougher competition. Facing a stout Chargers' defense in Week 15 that limited him to one touchdown pass in the season opener. Mahomes is better used as a QB2.
Posted 12/11/2025 1:09 am GMT
Kansas City Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown (non-injury) did not practice Wednesday, Dec. 10, due to personal reasons.
Huddle Up: Brown's role in the offense has faded the last several weeks, and he has been held to two catches or less and 40 yards or less in six of his last seven games. Neither the usage nor production are enough to make Brown an appealing fantasy option.

Kansas City Chiefs TE Travis Kelce had one catch for eight yards versus the Houston Texans in Week 14. Kelce was targeted five times.
Huddle Up: To say Kelce had a bad night is an understatement. He struggled to find room against Houston's defense, and when Patrick Mahomes did get him the ball, he couldn't haul in it, most notably bobbling a pass into the game-sealing interception. The result, a season-low eight yards. Despite that, at a position with few airtight options, Kelce remains a viable midrange TE1.
Posted 12/08/2025 6:24 am GMT
Kansas City Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown had one catch (on two targets) for 35 yards in Week 14 against the Houston Texans.
Huddle Up: Over his last four games, Brown has totaled 40, 10, 20, and 35 yards receiving, respectively, so unless your league awards major bonus points for posting yardage totals that are divisible by 5, the veteran isn't doing much for fantasy owners. Those in deeper leagues might see enough to carry him as WR5/WR6 roster depth, but in standard leagues he's better suited for the waiver wire.
Posted 12/08/2025 6:04 am GMT
Kansas City Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy had three receptions for a team-high 55 yards in Week 14 against the Houston Texans. He was targeted four times.
Huddle Up: Worthy was the best of a bad lot on Sunday night as the Chiefs struggled to move the ball with any consistency against the Texans. There was a lot of excitement surrounding Worthy coming off a strong rookie year, which included three postseason TDs, but after getting hurt in the opener he's had middling numbers for most of 2025, scoring just once and only surpassing 65 yards in one game. He's a decent depth option as a WR4.
Posted 12/08/2025 5:49 am GMT
Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice caught four passes (on a game-high eight targets) for 34 yards versus the Houston Texans in Week 14.
Huddle Up: Coming off a multi-score effort on Thanksgiving, Rice didn't have many leftovers to feed fantasy owners on Sunday night, catching just half of his eight targeted balls. Among the passes that didn't connect were a brutal hit on a crossing route and a dropped fourth down that put the Chiefs in desperation mode. While he's had a couple of duds since returning from suspension, he's also scored five times and had 80 yards or more in half of his games. He's a borderline WR1/WR2 that should be locked into your weekly lineup.
Posted 12/08/2025 5:33 am GMT
Kansas City Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco carried the ball nine times for 30 yards versus the Houston Texans in Week 14.
Huddle Up: Pacheco saw a bit more work in his second game back from injury, but he's still trailing Kareem Hunt in that department. Before going down, Pacheco had logged double-digit touches in all but two of his eight games played in 2025. While he's worth rostering, Pacheco is a tough sell even for a flex spot until he starts getting more opportunities.
Posted 12/08/2025 5:21 am GMT
Kansas City Chiefs RB Kareem Hunt had 12 carries, 30 yards, and a touchdown versus the Houston Texans in Week 14.
Huddle Up: There wasn't much room to operate behind KC's patchwork line, but Hunt ran hard and found the end zone for the team's only touchdown of the night. Hunt looked like he had a shot at another one when he leaked out into the flat and had a lot of green grass in front of him, but Patrick Mahomes' pass hit him in the face mask and fell incomplete. The veteran continues to see more work than Isiah Pacheco and is a weekly RB3/flex.
Posted 12/08/2025 5:05 am GMT
Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes completed 14 of his 33 passes for 160 yards, no touchdowns, and three interceptions in a Week 14 loss to the Houston Texans. Mahomes ran the ball seven times for a team-high 59 yards as well.
Huddle Up: For much of Sunday night, Kansas City's offense was hard to watch. Key players like Rashee Rice and Travis Kelce had critical drops, and Mahomes misfired on some makable throws as well. The Chiefs still have a puncher's chance at a playoff spot, and there are some enticing matchups remaining -- most notably Week 16 with the Titans and Week 18 versus Las Vegas -- but with so many issues along the offensive line, KC's offense is far from reliable, and that trickles down to Mahomes. He still carries QB1 upside, but you'll want to consider your alternatives.
Posted 12/05/2025 9:33 pm GMT
Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (hamstring) fully participated in practice Friday, Dec. 5, and is not on the injury report for Week 14.
Huddle Up: Rice seems to be dealing with a minor injury and should not have any limitations during the Week 14 game. He has been targeted 24 times over the last two games and has posted at least 80 yards in four of his last five games. He should be a No. 1 or No. 2 receiver in fantasy leagues.
Posted 12/05/2025 9:29 pm GMT
Kansas City Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco (knee) fully participated in practice Friday, Dec. 5, and is not on the injury report for Week 14.
Huddle Up: Pacheco returned to the lineup last week but received only five touches and finished with 33 total yards. He should be more involved in the offense this week but will probably continue to share playing time with Kareem Hunt. He can be a flex option in most fantasy leagues.
Posted 12/05/2025 9:28 pm GMT
Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (knee) fully participated in practice Friday, Dec. 5, and is not on the injury report for Week 14.
Huddle Up: Mahomes is coming off a season-high four touchdowns last week and has thrown for at least 250 yards in each of his last nine games. He will be facing a good Houston Texans defense this week but can still be a No. 1 quarterback in fantasy leagues.
Posted 12/05/2025 1:18 am GMT
Kansas City Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco (knee) was a full participant in practice Thursday, Dec. 4.
Huddle Up: Pacheco was quiet in his return from injury in Week 13, and while there is a chance his role will grow moving forward, Kareem Hunt seems like the lead back in Kansas City. Pacheco is worth stashing, but he is too risky to trust as a fantasy starter in Week 14.
Posted 12/05/2025 1:14 am GMT
Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (hamstring) was a full participant in practice Thursday, Dec. 4.
Huddle Up: Rice has wasted no time recapturing his role as the go-to option for Patrick Mahomes, and he has logged at least 80 receiving yards in four of his last five games. A Week 14 matchup with a stout Houston defense may cap his upside a bit, but Rice can still be considered a WR2.
Posted 12/05/2025 1:09 am GMT
Kansas City Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes (knee) was a full participant in practice Thursday, Dec. 4.
Huddle Up: Mahomes is coming of a strong showing against Dallas, but while he has had several big performances against bad defenses this year, he has put up pedestrian numbers against tougher competition. With the stingy Houston defense looming in Week 14, Mahomes is more of a QB2 option.
Posted 12/04/2025 12:08 am GMT
Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (hamstring) was able to take part in a full practice session Wednesday, Dec. 3.
Huddle Up: Rice has quickly re-emerged as low-end WR1 or top-tier WR2 in most fantasy leagues. He racked up exactly eight receptions for 12 targets for the second straight game, and he ended up with 92 receiving yards and two touchdowns against the Cowboys on Thanksgiving Day.
Posted 12/04/2025 12:05 am GMT
Kansas City Chiefs RB Isiah Pacheco (knee) was able to practice on a full basis on Wednesday, Dec. 3.
Huddle Up: Pacheco returned to the lineup on Thanksgiving Day in Dallas, but he had a total of just five touches, including three runs for 16 yards, and two grabs for 17 yards. As long as Kareem Hunt remains healthy, it appears Pacheco's role will be limited, and therefore, his fantasy appeal is rather limited, too.
Posted 12/04/2025 12:01 am GMT
Kansas City Chiefs WR Patrick Mahomes (knee) was listed as a full participant for practice on Wednesday, Dec. 3.
Huddle Up: With Mahomes going through a full practice, he is expected to be good to go for Week 14 against the Houston Texans on Sunday Night Football. Mahomes is coming off of one of his best performances, going for 261 yards and four touchdowns on Thanksgiving against the Dallas Cowboys. He remains a legit QB1 in all fantasy leagues despite just one total touchdown in three games prior to Turkey Day.
Posted 11/28/2025 1:47 am GMT
Kansas City Chiefs RB Brashard Smith did not log a carry and was not targeted during the Week 13 game against the Dallas Cowboys.
Huddle Up: Smith had been making an impact in the passing game, but whether it was the return of Isiah Pacheco or something else was at play, he was not part of the offensive plan against Dallas. Smith's role was already limited, and and he can probably be cut loose in most leagues now that Pacheco is back in the mix.
Posted 11/28/2025 1:40 am GMT
Kansas City Chiefs TE Travis Kelce caught five of his six targets for 45 yards and a touchdown in a 31-28 loss to the Dallas Cowboys in Week 13.
Huddle Up: It wasn't Kelce's biggest game of the year, but he did find the end zone for the fifth time. The veteran tight end has been one of the steadier options at the position, and he is a safe bet for a handful of grabs and around 50 receiving yards per game.
Posted 11/28/2025 1:36 am GMT
Kansas City Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown caught both of his targets for 20 yards and a touchdown in 31-28 loss to the Dallas Cowboys in Week 13.
Huddle Up: Brown's role in the offense has been reduced since Rashee Rice returned to action, and Brown has finished with two receptions or less in five of his last six games. Brown can be rostered as a WR5 in case Rice or Xavier Worthy misses time, but he is a only touchdown-dependent play in his current role.
Posted 11/28/2025 1:29 am GMT
Kansas City Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy caught four of his six targets for 61 yards and added two carries for 13 yards in a 31-28 loss to the Dallas Cowboys in Week 13.
Huddle Up: Worthy's 61 receiving yards were his second most of the season, and while he has maintained a steady role in the passing game, he hasn't had many big games. Worthy has just one touchdown thus far, and he has been held under five reception in six of his last seven games. He is a flex play or a WR4.
Posted 11/28/2025 1:23 am GMT
Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice caught eight of his 12 targets for 92 yards and two touchdowns in a 31-28 loss to the Dallas Cowboys in Week 13.
Huddle Up: Rice led the team in catches, targets and receiving yards, and since making his delayed debut, he has logged at least seven targets in all six games. Rice is the unquestioned No. 1 option in the Kansas City passing game, and he is a high-end WR2 with WR1 upside.
