Expert Note
View More NotesWhen Rashee Rice has been a full-time player, Xavier Worthy has had a 15.1% target share with 0.62 YPRR, six red zone targets, three deep targets, and a 19.4% first-read share. He hasn't surpassed 25 receiving yards in any of those four games. I don't have any faith left in Worthy. I understand he surpassed 70 receiving yards against the Raiders and Chargers' secondaries with Rice out, but with Rice in the lineup, he has been a ghost. Since Week 5, the Jets have had the 12th-highest rate of single-high (54.5%). Against single-high, Worthy has had a 22% TPRR, but he has only produced 0.88 YPRR. The Jets' secondary has been giving, but this might be asking too much of them to hoist up Worthy to a productive Week 9. Over their last five games, the Jets have allowed the 12th-most yards per target and the fourth-most fantasy points per opportunity to perimeter wide receivers.

Fantasy Impact
Worthy led the Chiefs pass catchers in receptions Sunday, with Travis Kelce leading in yardage and Rashee Rice leading in targets. He did suffer a hamstring injury that saw him quickly ruled out by the team. Fantasy managers will want to monitor his status ahead of a Week 10 matchup with the Falcons.
