Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Staying put in KC
The Kansas City Chiefs are re-signing JuJu Smith-Schuster to a one-year contract, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.Smith-Schuster initially joined Kansas City on a one-year deal last August and appeared in 14 regular-season games, tallying 18 receptions on 26 targets for 231 yards and two touchdowns. He then played in all three of the team's postseason contests and caught four of six targets for 76 yards. Kansas City lost DeAndre Hopkins in free agency early in the week, but Hollywood Brown was re-signed and Rashee Rice should be back in action at the start of next season after missing most of last year due to a knee injury, so Smith-Schuster probably isn't going to have a much bigger role in the Chiefs' offense than he did last year.

Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Ancillary role in 2024
JuJu Smith-Schuster racked up 18 catches for 231 yards and a pair of touchdowns on 26 targets in 14 games during the 2024 regular season.Smith-Schuster inked a one-year deal with the Kansas City Chiefs this offseason, hoping to rekindle some of the flames that saw him register 78 grabs for 933 yards and three touchdowns in 2022, but it wasn't in the cards for him this season. He saw semi-regular action in games but wasn't a major factor for the Chiefs, even after Rashee Rice was lost for the season due to an LCL injury. The team instead traded for DeAndre Hopkins and coasted by in the regular season, seeing a late-season return from Hollywood Brown to pair with rookie Xavier Worthy as the team's primary tandem during the postseason. Smith-Schuster reenters free agency this offseason unrestricted but seems unlikely to recapture his production from 2022 when the Chiefs sported a relatively barren wide receiver depth chart. He'll likely need to compete for regular playing time again at his next stop.

Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: One grab in regular-season finale
JuJu Smith-Schuster caught one of two targets for four yards during Sunday's 38-0 loss versus the Broncos.Smith-Schuster logged a heavy workload in the contest, playing 94 percent of the offensive snaps as one of the wideouts who saw additional action with Xavier Worthy, DeAndre Hopkins and Hollywood Brown all sitting out with the No. 1 seed already in hand coming into the Week 18 tilt. The veteran closed out the 2024 campaign with 18 catches for 231 yards and a pair of touchdowns on 26 targets and will rejoin the free-agent ranks this offseason once the team's postseason run concludes.

Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Two grabs against former team
JuJu Smith-Schuster caught both of his targets for 18 yards in Wednesday's 29-10 win over the Steelers.Smith-Schuster was one of seven players to catch multiple passes from Patrick Mahomes in Wednesday's lopsided win. The veteran wideout is an ancillary piece in Kansas City's passing game, having surpassed 20 yards in only two games this season.

Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Held without a catch in Week 16 win
JuJu Smith-Schuster failed to reel in his only target during Saturday's 27-19 win over the Texans.Smith-Schuster saw his snap count decline to 39 percent with the return of Hollywood Brown to the lineup Saturday, after having played over 50 percent of snaps in his prior four appearances. With Xavier Worthy and DeAndre Hopkins also available as starters in three-wide sets, Smith-Schuster's role on offense for Kansas City is now clearly a depth one, especially with Brown's involvement to be ramped up. Smith-Schuster can safely be relegated to the waiver wire in the majority of fantasy formats heading into a road matchup against the Steelers on Wednesday.

Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Makes lone grab count in Week 15
JuJu Smith-Schuster reeled in one of his three targets for seven yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 21-7 win versus the Browns.Smith-Schuster's 51 percent snap share sits around the same range it has been over the past four contests. His three targets did mark his highest total since returning from a hamstring injury in Week 11, but that's hardly enough volume to warrant fantasy consideration in the majority of formats. On top of that, Hollywood Brown (shoulder) had his practice window opened ahead of his potential return from injured reserve. When that happens, Smith-Schuster will likely slide further down the depth chart behind Brown, Xavier Worthy and DeAndre Hopkins.

Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Limited output in Week 14
JuJu Smith-Schuster gathered in both of his targets for 31 yards during Sunday's 19-17 win versus the Chargers.Smith-Schuster logged a 49 percent snap share (34 snaps) on offense in the game, ranking fourth among wideouts behind Xavier Worthy (83 percent), DeAndre Hopkins (55 percent) and Justin Watson (51 percent). Smith-Schuster should continue to see work on a weekly basis, but his Week 5 seven-catch, 130-yard output should clearly be viewed as an anomaly. Barring injuries at wide receiver, Smith-Schuster can safely be left on the waiver wire in most leagues.

Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: One grab versus Raiders
JuJu Smith-Schuster hauled in his only target for 10 yards during Friday's 19-17 victory versus Las Vegas.Smith-Schuster finished third among wideouts in terms of snaps behind just Xavier Worthy and DeAndre Hopkins, but he didn't do a ton with them, commanding just one target. He's totaled just four targets over the three weeks since returning from a hamstring injury, and there's little to suggest his involvement will grow, barring injuries at the wide receiver position.

Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Quiet effort versus Panthers
JuJu Smith-Schuster reeled in one of his two targets for six yards during Sunday's 30-27 victory versus the Panthers.While Smith-Schuster was third among wide receivers in terms of reps -- 41 snaps for a 55 percent snap share -- he was unable to do much with them. The 28-year-old wideout has turned in just one catch in each of the last two games, totaling a combined 14 yards. Barring injuries to other top targets in the passing attack, Smith-Schuster can likely be left on the waiver wire in the majority of fantasy formats.

Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Tallies one catch in return
JuJu Smith-Schuster hauled in his only target for eight yards during Sunday's 30-21 loss to the Bills.Smith-Schuster logged only 20 snaps in his return to action Sunday, turning the limited run into just one grab. Following the trade deadline acquisition of DeAndre Hopkins, Smith-Schuster's seven-catch, 130-yard performance against the Saints in Week 5 seems unlikely to be replicated. Still, Smith-Schuster figures to handle a regular role on offense for the rest of the regular season due to the Kansas City Chiefs' thinned-out wide receiver room because of injury.
