Byron Pringle Fantasy

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Byron Pringle will be worth keeping an eye on Week 3's preseason game versus the Minnesota Vikings. Wide receiver Mecole Hardman has been the teams No. 2 wide receiver throughout training camp, but Pringle has been breathing down his neck. Both Hardman and Pringle look to have the No. 2 and No. 3 spots locked up over Demarcus Robinson, but Friday's game could give one of them the leg up entering the season. Pringle has drawn plenty of praise during training camp and he has caught six of his seven targets for 73 yards and a touchdown in two preseason games. Hardman has drawn nine targets in two preseason games and has hauled in four balls for 39 yards and a touchdown. It should be noted that starting quarterback Patrick Mahomes has been on the sideline for much of this. Despite that, the battle for the No.2 spot could come down to Friday's contest and if one of Pringle or Hardman stands out, they could earn that spot. Whoever does wind up with the No. 2 spot will be behind wide receiver Tyreek Hill and tight Travis Kelce for targets, but could carve out a nice role in one of the best offenses in the league. Those playing DFS for Week 3 of the preseason should consider both receivers.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Byron Pringle caught both of his targets for 10 yards and a five-yard touchdown in Saturday's preseason opener versus the San Francisco 49ers. Pringle has been competing with wide receivers Mecole Hardman and Demarcus Robinson for the No. 2 and No. 3 spots on the depth chart. Pringle has looked good in training camp and managers searching for a sleeper should write his name down. Hardman has the upper hand as the No. 2 wide receiver as of now, but he dropped his only target and only played five snaps compared to four for Pringle and 10 for Robinson. Robinson didn't help his case either with no targets. It's still way too early for the Chiefs to announce their final depth chart, but whoever wins the No. 2 spot will be worth a look in all formats.

The Athletic's Nate Taylor reports Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Byron Pringle was targeted the most by quarterback Patrick Mahomes in minicamp. Wide receiver Mecole Hardman is expected to have a leg up on the No. 2 wide receiver spot, but Pringle and Demarcus Robinson remain in the mix. Pringle will be entering his third season and the speedster has caught 25 of his 33 targets for 330 yards and two touchdowns in his first two seasons. The Chiefs passing game will be dominated by wide receiver Tyreek Hill and tight end Travis Kelce, but Pringle is worth keeping an eye on. He could be a valuable cheap option for the 2021 campaign.
