Josh Gordon Fantasy

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said it's only a matter of time before wide receiver Josh Gordon becomes a productive part of the team's offense. Reid has told Gordon to stay patient. The 30-year-old did play a season-high 43% of the offensive snaps in Sunday night's big win over the division-rival Las Vegas Raiders, but he wasn't targeted at all. In his six games with KC this year, Gordon has caught one of his four targets for 11 yards. It's hard to take Reid at his word when the Chiefs have so many options and when they funnel targets to Tyreek Hill and tight end Travis Kelce most of the time. Then there's also Mecole Hardman, Byron Pringle and Demarcus Robinson for Gordon to contend with. We want to see it before we believe that Gordon can make noise for fantasy managers.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Josh Gordon only saw one target in an ugly Week 7 loss against the Tennessee Titans and finished with zero receptions on the day. Gordon had been expected to see more playing time, but he is still struggling to find his footing in this offense and is doing little to nothing when he has been seeing snaps. Gordon has now suited up in four games for the Chiefs this season and has just one reception for 11 yards on two targets. With many mouths to feed in the Chiefs offense, fantasy managers can feel safe about swapping Gordon out for a player with better potential on the waiver wire.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Josh Gordon played just 11 offensive snaps (13%) and wasn't targeted a single time in the Week 6 win over the Washington Football Team. It comes after he played only nine snaps and caught his lone target for an 11-yard game in his team debut in Week 5. The Chiefs want to get Gordon more involved, but it just hasn't worked out so far in this crowded offense. Wide receiver Tyreek Hill and tight end Travis Kelce are obviously the top two receiving options for quarterback Patrick Mahomes, but they also have Mecole Hardman, Demarcus Robinson and Byron Pringle in the fold. Gordon will probably be more involved going forward, but there's no guarantee that he'll ever have a large enough weekly role to provide fantasy value for starting lineups.
