Player Outlook
There is no reasonable place to select Toney in Fantasy drafts. That's because, despite the fact that everyone is talking about him as Patrick Mahomes' No. 1 wide receiver, he remains mostly an unknown two years after the Giants drafted him with the 20th overall pick. In those two seasons he's played 19 of 34 games and failed to log even one game with a 50% snap share in 2022. The most appropriate place to draft that player would be in the double-digit rounds, but his per-route data and proximity to Mahomes mean he won't be available that late. View him as a No. 4 WR with no floor and a top-20 ceiling, then decide if you're willing to spend a Round 6 or 7 pick on that profile, because that is what it will cost.

  • Chiefs' Kadarius Toney: Remains sidelined Thursday

    Toney (toe) won't practice Thursday, Matt McMullen of the Chiefs' official site reports. Toney also missed Wednesday's session, so what the wideout is able to do (if anything) at Friday's practice will be telling with regard to his chances of playing Sunday against the Bears. After a forgettable one-catch effort in the Chiefs' season opener, Toney bounced back in the team's Week 2 win over the Jaguars, hauling in all five of his targets for 35 yards.

  • Chiefs' Kadarius Toney: Misses practice Wednesday

    Toney isn't practicing Wednesday due to a sprained toe, Adam Schefter of ESPN.com reports. Toney will still have two chances to return to practice this week before the Chiefs decide whether to give him a designation ahead of Sunday's game against the Bears. After struggling with drops in the season-opening loss to the Lions, Toney caught all five of his targets from Patrick Mahomes in the Chiefs' Week 2 win over the Jaguars.

  • Chiefs' Kadarius Toney: Catches all five Week 2 targets

    Toney caught all five of his targets for 35 yards and rushed once for three yards in Sunday's 17-9 win over Jacksonville. Toney played a clean game after an error-filled Week 1 performance, tying Justin Watson for second on the team in targets behind Travis Kelce's nine. Patrick Mahomes completed multiple passes to nine different targets while topping 300 passing yards. Toney has established a decent touch floor in Kansas City's balanced passing attack, but he hasn't particularly stood out in a receiving corps that also includes Watson, Skyy Moore, Rashee Rice and Marquez Valdes-Scantling. He'll look to make more of his opportunities in Week 3 against the Bears.

  • Chiefs' Kadarius Toney: Sleeper WRs

    I was too harsh on Toney after his struggles in Week 1 against Detroit when he had one catch for 1 yard on five targets, and one of his drops led to a 50-yard pick-six by Detroit's Brian Branch. He played in that game following a month-long absence from a knee injury, but he still tied for the team lead in targets. And Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid are still backing Toney, which is a positive sign. Hopefully, he's close to 100 percent for this matchup with the Jaguars, and this game should be a shootout with a projected total of 51.5. Based on Week 1, any of the Chiefs receivers could surprise us in this game, especially if Travis Kelce (knee) remains out. But I'll give a slight nod to Toney since he could have a squeaky-wheel outing if Mahomes leans on him against Jacksonville.

  • Chiefs' Kadarius Toney: One catch in opener

    Toney secured one of five targets for one yard and rushed once for minus-1 yard in the Chiefs' 21-20 loss to the Lions on Thursday night. Toney was able to make it back from a knee injury that robbed him of a solid chunk of training camp and all of preseason, but ultimately, it may have been better for the Chiefs and fantasy managers had he remained idle for at least another week. The third-year pro struggled with his hands all night, and one of his mishandled targets resulted in a 50-yard pick-six by the Lions' Brian Branch early in the second half that allowed Detroit to erase a 14-7 deficit. Toney also failed to secure a first-down throw from Patrick Mahomes that could have resulted in a solid gain on what would turn out to be the Chiefs' final drive, making it an all-around forgettable night. Toney may well have been dealing with a bit of rust, and he naturally has nowhere to go but up when he faces the Jaguars on the road a week from Sunday in a Week 2 rematch of January's AFC divisional-round clash.

  • Chiefs' Kadarius Toney: Ready for opener

    Toney (knee) doesn't have an injury designation for Thursday's game against Detroit. The Chiefs listed Toney as a full practice participant at Wednesday's practice, an upgrade after he was listed as limited both of the previous two days. He's unlikely to have an every-down role early on in the season after missing most of training camp and all of the preseason, but Toney nonetheless ranks among the favorites to see targets from quarterback Patrick Mahomes in the event tight end Travis Kelce (knee) is absent or limited Thursday. In terms of the receiver snaps, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Skyy Moore look like the safest bets to pace the position group in playing time, with other options being Toney, Justin Watson, Richie James, Rashee Rice and Justyn Ross.

  • Chiefs' Kadarius Toney: Remains limited in practice

    Toney (knee) was a limited participant in Tuesday's practice. After missing nearly all of training camp and the entirety of the preseason while recovering from surgery to address a torn meniscus, Toney has now opened Week 1 prep with a pair of limited listings on the practice report. Though he has yet to be cleared to play in advance of Thursday's season opener versus the Lions, head coach Andy Reid suggested late last week that the wideout would be "good to go" to begin the campaign. Even if Reid's prediction comes to pass, the 24-year-old could have his snap count managed to some degree against Detroit while he eases his way back from the knee injury.

  • Chiefs' Kadarius Toney: Good to go for Week 1

    Head coach Andy Reid said Toney (knee) is "good to go" for Thursday's season opener against the Lions, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports. Toney suffered a torn meniscus at the beginning of training camp and missed the entire preseason while rehabbing from minor surgery. However, as expected, the wideout is nearing full strength as Week 1 approaches. While Reid's comments are encouraging, he later added that Toney is still considered day-to-day but is trending in the right direction. It sounds like Toney may still wind up on the Chiefs' initial injury report, which will drop Monday, but the team expects Toney to be available versus Detroit.

  • Chiefs' Kadarius Toney: Return to practice imminent

    Coach Andy Reid said Saturday that Toney (knee) may be able to practice in about one week, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports. Toney suffered a torn meniscus in his knee in the early stages of training camp, which required surgery and kept him out of the entire preseason. The Chiefs have been optimistic that he'll be healthy by Week 1, and returning to drills next week would help his case to do so. Having said that, they open the season Thursday, Sept. 7 versus the Lions, so Toney may need bump up to all activity quickly to receive clearance for that contest.

  • Chiefs' Kadarius Toney: Tweaks knee during warmups

    Toney "tweaked his knee" while shagging punts before Sunday's training camp practice, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports. Toney didn't participate in drills after suffering the injury, but the severity of the issue remains unclear. Either way, it's a concerning development for the oft-injured wideout, who's struggled to deliver consistent production despite immense talent. Kansas City figures to be extremely cautious with Toney moving forward, which should allow Skyy Moore, Rashee Rice, Richie James and Justyn Ross to get more first-team work in with Marquez Valdes-Scantling.

  • Chiefs' Kadarius Toney: Gets back to full participation

    Toney (ankle/hamstring) was a full practice participant Thursday. The Chiefs held Toney out of drills during the first week of prep for Super Bowl LVII due to a combination of ankle and hamstring injuries. He kicked off this week with a cap on his reps Wednesday, a practice in which coach Andy Reid said Toney was "doing everything," per James Palmer of NFL Network. While his listing during that session said otherwise, Toney appears to have put any questions about his health behind him following Thursday's session. After Kansas City placed Mecole Hardman (pelvis) on injured reserve Monday, the team now is prepared to roll with JuJu Smith-Schuster (knee), Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Toney as its top three wide receivers Sunday versus the Eagles.

  • Chiefs' Kadarius Toney: Won't return vs. Bengals

    Toney (ankle) has been ruled out for the remainder of Sunday's AFC Championship Game against the Bengals. He finished the game with a nine-yard catch on his only target and one punt return for 12 yards. Toney suffered a non-contact injury in the first half. The Chiefs are thin at wide receiver with JuJu Smith-Schuster (knee) and Mecole Hardman (pelvis) both questionable to return.

  • Chiefs' Kadarius Toney: Hurts leg in AFCCG

    Toney (ankle) went to the locker room with athletic trainers in the first half of Sunday's AFC Championship game against the Bengals, according to Herbie Teope of The Kansas City Star, and his return to the game officially is questionable. Toney went down at the end of a first-quarter catch and had his lower left leg examined in the medical tent. After that evaluation, the wide receiver made his way to the locker room. Toney had one catch for nine yards on two targets prior to exiting, with the other target resulting in an end-zone incompletion that was unsuccessfully challenged by Kansas City.

  • Chiefs' Kadarius Toney: Totals 50 yards

    Toney recorded five receptions on seven targets for 36 yards in Saturday's 27-20 win over the Jaguars. He added one rush for 14 yards. Toney joined Travis Kelce as the only Chiefs' pass catcher to record more than two receptions in Saturday's win. He was limited to work around the line of scrimmage, though the team continued to show the desire to keep him involved in the offense in a variety of ways. Toney will likely rotate into the game behind JuJu Smith-Schuster and Marquez Valdes-Scantling in next week's AFC Championship Game.

  • Chiefs' Kadarius Toney: Sleepers (Start/Sit)

    We'll see what happens with Toney now that Mecole Hardman (abdomen) is back for Week 18, but I still like the idea of Toney as a flex option against the Raiders. Toney had a productive game in Week 17 against Denver with four catches for 71 yards on four targets, but he played just 16 of 53 offensive snaps and remains tough to trust. That being said, you see his explosiveness every time he touches the ball, and he could be electric on the turf in Las Vegas. It's also a good matchup since the Raiders have allowed six receivers to score at least 12 PPR points in their past five games.

  • Chiefs' Kadarius Toney: Displays glimpses of ability

    Toney gathered in all four targets for 71 yards during Sunday's 27-24 victory versus the Broncos. Toney hasn't delivered as much as many had hoped when the fantasy draft season began, but he got more involved in the Chiefs' offense Sunday. That being said, Toney only logged 19 offensive snaps (32 percent) in the game, so consistent production on this level shouldn't be counted on. He finished fourth among wide receivers in offensive snaps behind Marquez Valdes-Scantling (50), JuJu Smith-Schuster (39) and Justin Watson (22).

  • Chiefs' Kadarius Toney: Hits pay dirt in win

    Toney caught one of two targets for eight yards and a touchdown in Saturday's 24-10 win over the Seahawks. Toney's otherwise quiet day was salvaged by an eight-yard touchdown in the first quarter on a pop pass from a jet sweep motion. The speedy wideout bobbled the ball at first but was able to gain control before finding his way into the end zone. Outside of his score, Toney was not a significant part of Kansas City's game plan, playing just 16 of the Chiefs' 53 offensive snaps. The 23-year-old is certainly a fantastic athlete and should have better days ahead when he is fully installed in the offense. However, Toney will be difficult to trust for fantasy purposes when the Chiefs host the Broncos in Week 17.

  • Chiefs' Kadarius Toney: Minimal role in return

    Toney (hamstring) brought in his only target for five yards and returned two punts for eight yards in the Chiefs' 30-24 overtime win over the Texans on Sunday. Toney was able to suit up for the first time since Week 11, but as his numbers indicate, he had a very minor role on an afternoon when Travis Kelce, JuJu Smith-Schuster and Jerick McKinnon absorbed the majority of Patrick Mahomes' pass attempts. Toney at least appeared to make it through the contest unscathed, so he'll have an opportunity for a bigger impact in a Week 16 home matchup against the Seahawks on Saturday afternoon.
