Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Marquise Brown is not expected to play in the season opener against the Baltimore Ravens due to a shoulder injury. Coach Andy Reid confirmed that Brown's recovery timeline suggests he may return in Week 2, but the team is optimistic about his recovery. In Brown's absence, quarterback Patrick Mahomes will rely on other receiving options, including tight end Travis Kelce and rookie Xavier Worthy.

With Marquise Brown dislocating his shoulder, the Kansas City Chiefs are adjusting their receiver combinations as they prepare for the upcoming season. Coach Andy Reid has emphasized the need for big plays in the passing game, and with Brown's absence, players like Xavier Worthy and Justin Watson are stepping up to fill the void. The Chiefs are optimistic about Brown's return but are also looking at their depth at the receiver position to maintain their offensive potency.

Kadarius Toney, wide receiver for the Kansas City Chiefs, will be out for Sunday's game against the Cincinnati Bengals due to a hip injury. Last week, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Rashee Rice, and Justin Watson were the top three wide receivers for the Chiefs, with Richie James as the fourth receiver.

Kadarius Toney, wide receiver for the Kansas City Chiefs, has been ruled out for Sunday's game against the Las Vegas Raiders due to ankle and hip injuries. With Mecole Hardman also on injured reserve, the Chiefs are left with five wide receivers: Rashee Rice, Justin Watson, Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Skyy Moore, and Richie James. Rice is the top fantasy option among the group, but his route rate was only 52% in the previous game. Watson had the highest route rate at 66% and received 11 targets, but he may still be difficult to trust in Week 12 fantasy lineups.

Chiefs wide receiver Justin Watson will not be playing in Sunday's game against the Chargers. Watson had been running routes on 50% of pass plays and had drawn 7.4% of the team's targets through six games, so his absence creates an opportunity for other Chiefs wide receivers.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Justin Watson dislocated his elbow in Thursday night's win over the Broncos. X-rays were clean, but he is scheduled for an MRI. Watson's absence will provide an opportunity for other Chiefs wide receivers.

The Kansas City Chiefs' second-round draft pick, Rashee Rice, caught a 1-yard touchdown pass from Patrick Mahomes, tying the game against the Detroit Lions.

The Chiefs later extended their lead with a touchdown from tight end Blake Bell, set up by long passes to Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Justin Watson.
