Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Comes up empty in Week 15
JuJu Smith-Schuster didn't haul in his lone target during Sunday's 16-13 loss to the Chargers.Smith-Schuster saw an increase in his snap share Sunday, with Hollywood Brown (personal) out of commission and Tyquan Thornton leaving with a possible concussion. Even so, the veteran wideout wasn't a factor in the offense, and now starting quarterback Patrick Mahomes is done for the year due to a torn ACL. There's little to like about Smith-Schuster's fantasy profile the rest of the way in 2025.

Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Minimal output versus Houston
JuJu Smith-Schuster reeled in one of two targets for five yards during Sunday's 20-10 loss to Houston.Smith-Schuster ranked third among wideouts in terms of offensive snap share in Sunday's contest, but that amounted to just a 38 percent share. The veteran has claimed no more than one pass in any of the last five contests and has just one touchdown on the ledger in 2025, so he can safely be left on the waiver wire in the vast majority of fantasy formats.

Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Held without catch in Week 13 loss
JuJu Smith-Schuster failed to haul in his lone target during the Kansas City Chiefs' 31-28 loss to the Cowboys on Thursday.Smith-Schuster failed to record a catch for the second time in three games, and the 2017 second rounder's 22 snaps on offense was fourth most among Chiefs wide receivers behind Rashee Rice (59), Xavier Worthy (58) and Hollywood Brown (29). Smith-Schuster recorded three catches or more in five of the first seven games of the regular season, but the veteran wideout figures to serve in a rotational role for the rest of the 2025 campaign unless Rice, Worthy or Brown were to miss time.

Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Tallies one reception in Week 12
JuJu Smith-Schuster notched one reception (on two targets) for eight yards during Sunday's 23-20 overtime victory over the Colts.Smith-Schuster hasn't tallied more than a single catch in any of the last three games and hasn't cracked double-digits in receiving yards over that span, so there are very few formats in which he should be considered a fantasy option. While he still receives decent run (45 snaps Sunday), he's not in line for many looks in the passing game, barring an absence from Rashee Rice.

Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Nabs one pass versus Buffalo
JuJu Smith-Schuster hauled in his only target for two yards during Sunday's 28-21 defeat against the Bills.Smith-Schuster logged a season-low 28 percent offensive snap share in Sunday's tilt, logging just 15 total snaps in the contest. It marked just the second time this season the veteran wideout managed fewer than two receptions in a game, but Smith-Schuster has seen a steep decline in his workload since Rashee Rice returned in Week 7. Nothing is particularly enticing about Smith-Schuster's fantasy outlook as long as the starting wideouts remain healthy.

Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Minimal output versus Washington
JuJu Smith-Schuster gathered in both of his targets for 29 yards during Monday's 28-7 win versus the Commanders.Smith-Schuster totaled just 21 offensive snaps in the contest, his lowest total of the season, and his second week in a row playing fewer than 30 offensive snaps. With Rashee Rice back in the fold and the wideout room healthy, this trend seems likely to continue. Smith-Schuster was already on the waiver wire in a lot of leagues before Rice returned, and there are very few situations where he's worth rostering in fantasy at the moment.

Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Targeted three times
JuJu Smith-Schuster recorded three receptions on three targets for 35 yards in Sunday's 31-0 win over the Raiders.Rashee Rice made his season debut and immediately dominated opportunity, commanding 10 targets while the next closest Chief had five. Smith-Schuster was in the mix with the rest of Kansas City's pass catchers and set up the team's third touchdown of the day with long gains of 19 and 12 yards. While Smith-Schuster is a key part of the team's offense, he has topped 50 receiving yards only three times in seven games this season and is likely to be less involved moving forward due to the return of Rice.

Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Efficient yet unspectacular Week 6
JuJu Smith-Schuster hauled in all three of his targets for 57 yards during Sunday's 30-17 victory against the Lions.Smith-Schuster made the most of his three grabs, tallying 30, 17 and 10 yards on each of them to reach 57 for the day, but that doesn't generate enough fantasy value to warrant using him in the majority of formats. On top of that, Rashee Rice returns this week to reclaim his spot in the slot. With Hollywood Brown claiming a starting role and Tyquan Thornton and second-year wideout Xavier Worthy all vying for playing time, Smith-Schuster is at risk of getting squeezed out of some snaps moving forward.

Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Targeted three times in loss
JuJu Smith-Schuster caught two of three targets for 17 yards in Monday's 31-28 loss to the Jaguars.Smith-Schuster played 42 of the Kansas City Chiefs' 64 offensive snaps Monday, behind Xavier Worthy (49) and ahead of Marquise Brown (33), Tyquan Thornton (29) and Jalen Royals (4). Despite playing the second most snaps of any Kansas City wideout, the veteran was unable to get much going in the passing game. Smith-Schuster is already difficult to trust for fantasy purposes, and the looming return of Rashee Rice from his six-game suspension should further complicate matters for the ninth-year receiver. Smith-Schuster will have the chance to bounce back in what should be a high-scoring affair when the Chiefs host the Lions in Week 6.

Chiefs' JuJu Smith-Schuster: Finds paydirt against Ravens
JuJu Smith-Schuster hauled in four of six targets for 36 yards and one touchdown during Sunday's 37-20 win versus the Ravens.The veteran wideout's workload is set to decline in a couple weeks when Rashee Rice returns from his six-game suspension, but Smith-Schuster continues to play a key role in the offense for KC in the meantime, as he led the wideout room with 57 offensive snaps (78 percent) in Week 4. Sunday's effort marked the first time he's reached double-digit PPR points this season, and he'll likely remain a touchdown-dependent fantasy option while in a prominent role. That said, he has a decent matchup ahead versus the Jaguars in Week 5.
