Tyquan Thornton re-signs with Chiefs on two-year deal

Wide receiver Tyquan Thornton is staying in Kansas City as he agreed to a two-year, $11 million contract to remain with the Chiefs. The deal maxes out at $14 million with incentives.

Fantasy Impact

The speedy wide receiver had his most productive season in the NFL last year, catching 19 passes for 438 yards and three touchdowns. His yardage and touchdown totals set new career-highs and he averaged 23.1 yards per reception. He also established himself as the primary kick returner in Kansas City and averaged 26.4 yards per attempt. Thornton spent his first three seasons in New England and has totaled 58 catches for 823 yards and five scores in his career. He'll likely assume a similar role next season, providing a deep threat on offense and serving as the kick returner on special teams.

Tyquan Thornton racks up 47 yards Sunday

Tyquan Thornton caught 2-of-3 targets for 47 yards in Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Los Angeles Chargers.

Fantasy Impact

Thornton was able to contribute a couple of big catches on Sunday, which left him with a solid 47 yards over the course of the afternoon. He won't have any fantasy value moving forward, however, especially now that Patrick Mahomes II (knee) is going to be sidelined for the remainder of the season.
