WR31: Xavier Worthy (vs. LAC). The Chiefs are down Tyquan Thornton (ankle, IR) and probably Rashee Rice (hamstring). And I still can't get Worthy inside my top-30 receivers! Now, things have gone a little better recently — Worthy caught six of nine targets for 90 yards in Weeks 3-4 — but the bar is low, and nobody should be surprised if Cyrus Allen, Jalen Royals and/or Justin Watson largely team up to replace Thornton and Rice's production.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Worthy stays outside top-30 despite Rice/Thornton injuries; backups expected to absorb vacated targets.

Ranked WR31 for Week 6 vs. LAC. Despite the Chiefs being down Tyquan Thornton (ankle, IR) and likely Rashee Rice (hamstring), the source still can't get Worthy inside the top-30 receivers. While Worthy caught 6 of 9 targets for 90 yards in Weeks 3-4, the bar is low and Cyrus Allen, Jalen Royals, and/or Justin Watson are expected to largely replace Thornton and Rice's production. The Chiefs likely will control the game on the ground against a Chargers defense that held the Bills, Seahawks, and Broncos to under 175 passing yards the last three weeks.
