Mecole Hardman Fantasy

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman saw five targets in a Week 16 victory against the Pittsburgh Steelers. The speedy receiver finished the afternoon with three receptions for 31 yards and a touchdown. His score would come on an eight-yard pass in the second quarter and was just his second score of the season. With tight end Travis Kelce (COVID-19) inactive, Hardman saw more action on Sunday, but overall has seen his snaps decrease a good amount in the second half of the season. With wide receiver Byron Pringle seeing the bulk of the snaps as the No. 2 wide receiver, Hardman remains a shaky option that is best served on the waiver wire in most formats.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman has had a rough season and has lost snaps during the second half of the season, but he could see an increase in playing time with star wide receiver Tyreek Hill currently on the Reserve/COVID-19 list with his status for Sunday up in the air for Week 16's battle against the Pittsburgh Steelers. If Hill were to miss the contest, Hardman would likely step into his role. The Steelers have been solid against the wide receiver position and are allowing just 157 yards per game. With Hardman's snap percentage decreasing as the season has gone on, it makes him hard to trust, but Hill's potential absence could open the door for Hardman to be more involved. If Hill dresses, Hardman should be avoided in most formats. If Hill is unable to suit up, Hardman should be considered a WR4 with upside in Week 16.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Mecole Hardman has seen a decrease in snaps over the last couple of weeks, and fantasy managers should stay wary of the speedy receiver in a tough matchup versus the Denver Broncos in Week 13. Hardman entered the year as the No. 2 receiver, but has seen his snaps taken away by Byron Pringle and Demarcus Robinson over recent weeks. Things won't get easier against a Denver defense that is allowing 157 yards per game to wide receivers. A boom-or-bust option on a weekly basis, fantasy managers should look elsewhere, even in the deepest of leagues for Week 13.
