Worthy brought in five of seven targets for 25 yards and a touchdown in the Chiefs' 33-30 overtime win over the Colts on Sunday night.

Worthy finished third in receptions and targets on the night for the Chiefs, but he was fifth in receiving yards and well behind fourth-place Kenneth Walker's 61 yards. However, Worthy was able to salvage his fantasy line against Indianapolis with a one-yard touchdown reception late in the second quarter. The speedster saw Tyquan Thornton vulture some downfield targets Sunday night, and Worthy is now averaging a tiny 5.4 yards per catch over his first eight receptions of the new season. The 2024 first-round pick will look to break through downfield in a Week 3 road matchup against the Dolphins' vulnerable defense.

Kelce secured nine of 11 targets for 101 yards and one touchdown in the Chiefs' 33-30 overtime win over the Colts on Sunday night.

Patrick Mahomes was in vintage form Sunday night, and Kelce unsurprisingly was a big reason why. The legendary duo was in sync throughout the night, and it helped Kelce to team-high figures in receptions, receiving yards and targets. The veteran tight end has posted a combined 12-172-1 line on 16 targets over his first two games, making him a top option at his position in all formats as a tantalizing Week 3 road matchup against the Dolphins approaches next Sunday.

Rice brought in four of six targets for 83 yards in the Chiefs' 33-30 overtime win over the Colts on Sunday night.

Rice finished with the Chiefs' third-highest receiving yardage total and turned in a 31-yard grab along the way. The 2023 second-round pick's boost in production was a welcome sight for fantasy managers after he'd managed a 2-19-1 line in Week 1, and given Patrick Mahomes already looks close to full health after last December's season-ending knee injury, Rice's outlook as Kansas City's No. 1 receiver should only get brighter as the season unfolds. Rice and the rest of the Chiefs' offense is in a premium spot in Week 3, as they'll pay a visit to the winless Dolphins next Sunday.

Mahomes completed 32 of 47 passes for 382 yards with three touchdowns and no interceptions while rushing twice for 17 yards in the Chiefs' 33-30 overtime win over the Colts on Sunday night.

Mahomes put together a pristine final line that saw the multi-time MVP generate elite numbers while connecting with seven different targets. Two of Mahomes' most trusted options Sunday night were tight end Travis Kelce and running back Kenneth Walker, but he also recorded a total of 13 completions to wideouts Rashee Rice, Tyquan Thornton and Xavier Worthy, the latter who was also on the receiving end of one of Mahomes' three scoring strikes. The other two TD tosses went to Travis Kelce (13 yards) and Jalen Royals (one yard), and Mahomes' passing yardage total was his highest regular-season tally since Week 7 of the 2023 season. Mahomes will be teed up for another potentially rewarding performance when the Chiefs visit the winless Dolphins next Sunday.

Walker rushed 24 times for 117 yards and brought in six of 10 targets for 61 yards in the Chiefs' 33-30 overtime win over the Colts on Sunday night.

Walker had a tall order in front of him in terms of matching his spectacular Chiefs debut against the Broncos on Monday night, but the offseason addition was able to make up for a lower rushing total by putting together a stellar showing as a receiver that included a clutch 22-yard reception on Kansas City's game-winning drive. Walker wasn't shabby on the ground by any stretch, either, and he's quickly amassed 290 rushing yards and his 60-yard touchdown in Week 1 as a runner while also offering plenty of value as a pass catcher with a 9-79-1 line on 16 targets. Walker's workhorse usage underscores how integral he is to the team's offensive plans, making him an elite option in all formats for a Week 3 road matchup against a highly beatable Dolphins defense next Sunday.

Allen caught one of five targets for five yards in Sunday's 33-30 overtime loss to the Chiefs.

Allen failed to capitalize on the first-half exit of fellow Colts WR Alec Pierce (heel). Dating back to last season with the Chargers, the 34-year-old Allen is mired in a 12-game regular-season touchdown drought, during which he has exceeded 44 receiving yards only once. Snapping that funk won't be easy in Week 3 against the Texans.

Downs caught seven of nine targets for 72 yards in Sunday's 33-30 overtime loss to the Chiefs.

Downs paced the Colts in targets, catches and receiving yards in a game that Alec Pierce (heel) exited in the first half. Pierce was the Colts' leading receiver last season, ahead of Tyler Warren, Michael Pittman (foot) and Downs. With Pierce hurt and Pittman now in Pittsburgh, Downs has a clear path to significant target volume from Daniel Jones in Week 3 at home against the Texans.

Jones completed 22 of 31 passes for 210 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Sunday's 33-30 overtime loss to the Chiefs. He also rushed three times for 10 yards.

Jones orchestrated a touchdown drive on the opening possession for a second consecutive game, capping this one with a one-yard touchdown pass to Tyler Warren. Leading 2025 Colts receiver Alec Pierce (heel) exited the game in the first half, but Jonathan Taylor kept the offense churning with a pair of rushing touchdowns. Jones connected with Laquon Treadwell for a 48-yard pass in overtime, but that drive stalled in the red zone and resulted in a game-tying field goal, which was sandwiched between a pair of Chiefs field goals in overtime to drop the Colts to 0-2 ahead of a Week 3 home game against the AFC South rival Texans.

Robinson caught his only target for nine yards in Sunday's 24-20 loss to the Eagles.

Robinson was even more quiet in his second contest with Tennessee after he caught five passes for 38 yards in his lackluster Titans' regular-season debut Week 1 versus the Jets. The wide receiver is coming off of a 2025 campaign during which he notched 1,014 yards and four touchdowns (both career highs) on 92 catches over 16 regular-season contests with the Giants, and he'll have to establish chemistry with new quarterback Cam Ward quickly if he wants to come anywhere close to those numbers. Robinson and the Titans will travel to face the Giants on the road in Week 3.

Warren caught six of seven targets for 21 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 33-30 overtime loss to the Chiefs. He also rushed once for three yards.

Warren opened the scoring with a one-yard touchdown catch, giving him two touchdowns in as many games to begin his sophomore season. The 2025 first-round pick is already halfway to his rookie total of four touchdown catches in 17 games, though Warren also had a rushing TD in 2025. If Alec Pierce (heel) were to miss any additional time after exiting in the first half of Sunday's loss, Warren and Josh Downs would be the top candidates to pick up the slack in the passing game for the run-heavy Colts offense. Warren and the Colts will try to snap a nine-game losing streak dating back to last season when they host the Texans in Week 3.
