Player Outlook
Ross has played just 10 games of football since 2019 and didn't look like himself in those 10 games. Still, he's worth a roster spot in deep Dynasty leagues at the very least for two reasons. One, he's earning praise for his offseason work with Patrick Mahomes. Two, he had a 1,000-yard, nine-touchdown season as an 18-year-old in the ACC. It's an extreme longshot that he'll regain that form, but even a sliver of hope of seeing that guy catching passes from Mahomes is worthy of a roster spot. We'll wait for him to move up the depth chart in training camp before we're using a pick in the first 16 rounds of a redraft league on him.

  • Chiefs' Justyn Ross: Minimal involvement in Week 1

    Ross reeled in his only target for six yards during Thursday's 21-20 defeat to the Lions. Ross made some waves during training camp to secure his spot on the 53-man roster, but he didn't play many snaps in the opener. The Chiefs rotated in receivers Week 1, with seven different wideouts notching at least one target. That said, Ross played the least snaps among the group, suggesting he's far enough down on the depth chart that he's unlikely to produce a fantasy-worthy stat line on a weekly basis.

  • Chiefs' Justyn Ross: Stashes (WR Preview)

    Ross is similar to Dell in that he was one of the stars of training camp and his QB raves about him. But Ross actually has NFL size as well and his quarterback is Patrick Mahomes. If Ross hits his upside, he's a top 12 wide receiver in the NFL. That's worth a stash for at least a month.

  • Chiefs' Justyn Ross: Secures roster spot

    Ross has made Kansas City's initial 53-man roster, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports. Ross' roster spot is intact as the initial 53-man roster deadline approaches. Though the defending champs will certainly make a number of further transactions, it looks like the former Clemson star has earned a role in Kansas City's wideout room to begin the regular season. Ross lost his rookie year to a foot injury, but enters his second season fully healthy and ready to compete for snaps with Kadarius Toney (knee), Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Skyy Moore and Rashee Rice.

  • Chiefs' Justyn Ross: Already back at practice

    Ross (leg) returned to practice Wednesday, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports. Ross left practice Tuesday with a leg injury, but he's already back on the field in full pads. The second-year wideout seems to have avoided an injury scare, though it's possible the Chiefs could still hold out of Saturday's preseason game against the Cardinals as a matter of cautious. After spending his entire first professional season in 2022 recovering from a foot injury, Ross is competing to earn a roster spot and a role in Kansas City's wideout room.

  • Chiefs' Justyn Ross: Injury may not be serious

    Ross (leg) departed Tuesday's practice early but is believed to have avoided a serious injury, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports. Ross may not have to miss much time due to a leg issue that required him to leave Tuesday's session on a cart, but it could well impact his status for Saturday's preseason game against Arizona. Every rep is key for Ross, who is competing to make the regular-season roster after having lost his rookie campaign due to a foot injury. His chances of earning a role in Kansas City's receiving corps will be aided the earlier he's able to get back on the field.

  • Chiefs' Justyn Ross: Departs with injury

    Ross (undisclosed) left Tuesday's practice early on a cart, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports. Ross has logged a strong training camp as he pushes for a roster spot, but even a minor issue could derail his momentum. The former Clemson star missed his rookie season due to a foot injury, but there are opportunities available in Kansas City's wide receiver corps heading into the 2023 regular season, if Ross can stay healthy enough to claim them.

  • Chiefs' Justyn Ross: Pushes for roster spot

    Ross, who has had a strong training camp, continues to push for a roster spot as the Chiefs' preseason opener approaches, Kevin Patra of NFL.com reports. The report notes that Ross, who has moved past a foot injury that kept him on injured reserve all of last season, has seen some first-team reps during training camp and has looked good in doing so. At this point, Kadarius Toney (who has been sidelined of late with a knee issue), Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Skyy Moore and rookie Rashee Rice profile as the Chiefs' top WR options, but if Ross continues to excel as the summer progresses, the 6-foot-4, 210-pounder could secure a depth role in the team's passing offense to start the coming season.

  • Chiefs' Justyn Ross: Gets first-team reps in practice

    Ross saw first-team reps during the Chiefs' first full-team practice Sunday, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports. Ross, who missed last season due to a foot injury, is among numerous candidates vying anywhere from a roster spot to potential offensive reps. While Ross' start to camp is slightly encouraging, there will likely be a battle throughout camp among the team's wide receivers for regular roles on offense. Also in the mix on that front are Kadarius Toney (knee), Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Skyy Moore, Rashee Rice, Richie James and Justin Watson.

  • Chiefs' Justyn Ross: Moves past foot injury

    Ross, who is bouncing back from a foot injury that landed him on IR last season, has been participating in recent throwing sessions with quarterback Patrick Mahomes, Charles Goldman of USA Today reports. Ross, who Kansas City signed as an undrafted free agent last year, spent the entire 2022 campaign on injured reserve after undergoing surgery to repair a nagging foot injury. Now that the 23-year-old has had time to move past the issue, Ross appears poised to compete for a role in a Chiefs' wideout corps that also includes Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Kadarius Toney, Skyy Moore and Richie James. At 6-foot-4, 210 pounds, Ross brings good size to the mix, but the Clemson product will need to prove his health in the coming months in order to secure a roster spot ahead of the 2023 season.

  • Chiefs' Justyn Ross: Lands on IR

    The Chiefs placed Ross (foot) on IR on Monday. Ross recently had foot surgery and will be out for the entire 2022 season, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports. After a promising freshman season at Clemson, the 6-foot-4 wideout has battled injuries. There's still potential for Ross to become a productive NFL starter, but he'll now have to wait until at least next year to try to realize it. In the meantime, Kansas City's wideout corp is currently headed by JuJu Smith-Schuster, Mecole Hardman, Marquez Valdes-Scantling and Skyy Moore.

  • Chiefs' Justyn Ross: Back in walking boot

    Ross (ankle) was spotted at the beginning of July in a boot and using a walking stroller, Zack Eisen of the Arrowhead report reports. Ross was signed by the Chiefs as an undrafted free agent following the 2022 NFL Draft, and GM Brett Veach said that the wideout had been medically cleared to take the field at the beginning of May. The Clemson product was considered a candidate to be an early-round draft choice, but he was diagnosed with a congenital fusion in his spine in the spring of 2020 and was limited last year due to a stress fracture in his left foot. It's unclear if the boot is simply precautionary or if he's suffered a setback. Regardless, Ross' status for the regular season will likely become clearer when Kansas City begins training camp.
