Xavier Worthy

Since Rashee Rice has been a full-time player in the Chiefs' offense (Week 8), Worthy has been the WR51 in fantasy points per game with two top-36 weekly finishes (WR33, WR28), which have come in his last two games. Houston's perimeter corners are really, really good, but the coverage matchup is working in Worthy's favor this week. Since Week 8, he has had a 16.6% target share with 44.2 receiving yards per game, 1.29 yards per route run, and a 21.8% first-read share. In those five games, he has had two red zone targets and seven deep targets. Since Week 9, Houston has utilized single-high at the seventh-highest rate (59.9%). Since Week 8, against single high, Worthy has had a 19.8% target share with 1.65 yards per route run and a 26.9% first-read share. The problem for Worthy is that, since Week 9, Houston has allowed the fifth-fewest PPR points per target to perimeter wide receivers. Worthy gets a bump with the positive single high numbers, but it still only makes him a dart throw flex this week.
