Chiefs | Xavier Worthy won't play in Week 2's game Sat Sep 13, 12:12 PM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (shoulder) has been ruled out for Week 2's game versus the Philadelphia Eagles.
| Footballguys view: Worthy is out this week against the Eagles, but he could be back soon. In Week 1 when Travis Kelce took him out, it was feared to be a serious injury. Those concerns have been squashed by recent reports which suggest Worthy could return later this month. |
Chiefs | Jalen Royals won't play in Week 2 Sat Sep 13, 10:06 AM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Jalen Royals (knee) has been ruled out for Week 2's game against the Philadelphia Eagles.
| Footballguys view: Royals is dealing with knee tendinitis and it make take a few more weeks for that to clear up. Hollywood Brown is the no1 receiver for now, and without Royals (and a suspended Rashee Rice) we'll see Tyquan Thornton and JuJu Smith-Schuster get more work. |

Chiefs | Xavier Worthy unlikely to play Fri Sep 12, 02:51 PM
Updating a previous report, Kansas City Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (shoulder) was limited during practice Friday, Sept. 12, but is listed as doubtful for Week 2.
| Footballguys view: Worthy would be a risky play only 9 days removed from a dislocated shoulder and wearing a harness anyway, so this isn't a bad break for fantasy. Marquise Brown is a solid WR3/Flex in PPR leagues as he'll likely lead the way in targets, but Juju Smith-Schuster and Tyquan Thornton will play larger roles with Worthy likely out. |

Chiefs | No practice for Jalen Royals Wed Sep 10, 02:06 PM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Jalen Royals (knee) will not participate in practice Wednesday, Sept. 10.
| Footballguys view: Don't expect to see Royals in Week 2. He missed the season opener against the Chargers due to tendinitis in the knee, and HC Andy Reid said it would be a 'stretch' to see the rookie against the Eagles on Sunday. |
Chiefs | Xavier Worthy misses practice Wed Sep 10, 01:30 PM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (shoulder) missed practice on Wednesday, Sept. 10. Head coach Andy Reid told the media on Wednesday that Worthy will undergo rehab for his shoulder.
| Footballguys view: The good news is that Worthy won't have to miss extended time. Reid did say that both surgery and injured reserve are off the table for now. We don't think Worthy plays in Week 2 against the Eagles. Hollywood Brown should continue to get a healthy target share while Worthy misses time. |
Chiefs | Xavier Worthy day-to-day Mon Sep 8, 02:08 PM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (shoulder) is considered day-to-day because of his shoulder injury, according to head coach Andy Reid.
| Footballguys view: With Worthy out for much of Friday's opener against the Chargers, Hollywood Brown led the team with 10 receptions for 99 yards. JuJu Smith-Schuster had five catches for 55 yards and Tyquan Thornton caught two of four targets for 41 yards, while tight end Travis Kelce caught two passes for 47 yards with a touchdown. Rookie receiver Jalen Royals could be an option to contribute if Worthy is out. But Royals is still recovering from a knee injury and didn't play last week. The Chiefs will host the Eagles for a rematch of Super Bowl LIX in Week 2. |
Chiefs | Dislocated shoulder for Xavier Worthy Sun Sep 7, 11:13 AM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (shoulder) has been diagnosed with a dislocated shoulder and does not have a definite timetable at this point, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. He is seeking a second opinion to see if he can play while wearing a harness on his shoulder or if he will need surgery.
| Footballguys view: However you slice it, this is a very disappointing start to the season for Worthy, and it's possible that his shoulder doesn't feel right all season. If he can play through the injury, he'll be less able to go up high for passes for fear of coming down on the injured shoulder, and he might be a little shy about taking hits on the shoulder after the catch. This could be another domino that eventually leads to the Chiefs bringing Tyreek Hill back. |
Chiefs | Xavier Worthy to undergo MRI exam Sat Sep 6, 10:02 AM
Updating previous reports, Kansas City Chiefs WR Xavier Worthy (shoulder) will undergo an MRI exam on his injured right shoulder when the team returns home from Brazil, according to head coach Andy Reid.
| Footballguys view: Things didn't look great for Worthy after Travis Kelce ran into him on a pick play Friday night. We'll know more about this injury after the MRI is done. With Worthy potentially out of action with a shoulder problem and Rashee Rice suspended for five more games, the Chiefs will lean on Hollywood Brown and Kelce in their passing game. In addition, Tyquan Thornton has speed and could be used on some plays that mainly go to Worthy. |

Kansas City Chiefs WR Jalen Royals (knee) didn't travel with the team and has been ruled out for Week 1.

Chiefs | Jalen Royals say out Sunday Tue Sep 2, 12:40 AM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Jalen Royals (knee) did not participate in practice Sunday, Aug. 31.
| Footballguys view: Royals has been dealing with knee tendonitis since the team's second preseason game against Seattle. The club initially hoped Royals would be available in Week 1, but Sunday's update suggests the rookie may wait another week before his NFL debut. As ChiefsDigest.com notes, with receiver Rashee Rice suspended for the first six weeks of the season, the Chiefs will lean on Xavier Worthy, Hollywood Brown, and JuJu Smith-Schuster in Friday's opener against the Chargers. |
Chiefs | Hollywood Brown able to practice Sun Aug 31, 02:11 PM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown (ankle) was able to practice Sunday, Aug. 31, and head coach Andy Reid said the veteran receiver 'should be fine' for the regular-season opener. Brown missed time in training camp and the preseason due to an ankle injury.
| Footballguys view: Brown is worth drafting in typical leagues to see if he gets off to a hot start with Rashee Rice suspended and fourth round rookie Jalen Royals likely out for at least Week 1 with a knee issue. The Chiefs also have veterans JuJu Smith-Schuster and Tyquan Thornton, so it's possible that he is eased back into the lineup in the season opener in Brazil vs. the Chargers. |
