Kansas City Chiefs
DST - Kansas City Chiefs
2024 Outlook
The Chiefs D/ST registered six sacks in a 25-17 Week 17 win over the Cincinnati Bengals.
Fantasy Impact
The unit was able to remain consistently disruptive Sunday, allowing just 263 total offensive yards in a winning effort. Fantasy managers can confidently plug the unit into lineups ahead of a solid Week 18 matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers.
The Chiefs' defense allowed six points, registered two sacks, and forced zero turnovers during Monday's 20-14 loss to the Raiders.
Fantasy Impact
Kansas City holding Las Vegas to a low point total doesn't nearly tell the whole story. Chris Jones (two tackles, one sack) and Trent McDuffie (five tackles, one QB hit) led the way and could make this unit a fringe top-12 option for Sunday's game against Cincinnati.
The Chiefs' defense held the Patriots to 17 points on just 206 yards of offense, recording four sacks and one interception in Sunday's 27-17 victory.
Fantasy Impact
The Chiefs' defense was instrumental in helping the team avoid a three-game losing streak Sunday, as the unit stifled the Patriots' lackluster offense. The Chiefs allowed just 52 yards on the ground while holding the Patriots' passing game to well under 200 yards. The Chiefs continue to harass opposing QBs, as they have now come up with 15 sacks over their last five games and are currently tied for third in the NFL with 46 on the season.
The Chiefs D/ST allowed 20 points on 327 total yards with three sacks and an interception on Sunday against the Bills.
Fantasy Impact
Kansas City struggled to contain James Cook who totaled 141 yards from scrimmage. They were able to hold Buffalo out of the end zone in the second half, but it wasn't enough to get the win. The Chiefs D/ST is a decent streaming option next week against the Patriots.
The Chiefs' defense allowed 27 points, tallied two sacks, and failed to force a turnover during their 27-19 loss to the Packers in Week 13.
Fantasy Impact
Justin Reid led the way with 10 tackles while L'Jarius Sneed and Charles Omenihu each registered one sack. This unit is a fringe top-12 fantasy option ahead of next week's clash with the Bills.
