Smith-Schuster has been a PPR machine for the last two weeks and has been a trusty target for Mahomes when healthy. You’d like to see him get into the endzone a little more often, but he is easily the best wide receiver on the team and is a fine WR2.
Valdes-Scantling caught a touchdown last week but had just three catches total for only 26 yards. He’s only topped four catches once this season and has just two total touchdowns. There’s always a chance he catches a deep ball or two, but Valdes-Scantling is too inconsistent to be trusted to be in your lineup.
Toney made his return from a hamstring injury last week but was eased back with just five snaps in which he caught one pass for five yards. He could get more involved this week, but there’s not enough of a track record with him to be in a fantasy lineup.
There was speculation that Hardman would return this week, but it seems he’s still not quite recovered from his abdominal injury. Even if he is able to play, he’ll likely be on a pitch count like Toney was last week.
