Worthy's 11-yard dud and Rice's return threaten to further diminish his role.

Worthy was completely shut down against the Seahawks in Week 7, catching just 3 of 6 targets for 11 yards. The former first-round pick has been held to 25 receiving yards or fewer in 4 of 6 games this season, making him hard to trust in fantasy lineups. Things could worsen if Rashee Rice returns soon from his hamstring injury, as Rice will immediately command a significant target share and push Worthy further down the pecking order. There have also been questions about whether Kansas City will pursue another receiver ahead of the trade deadline, which could take another hit to Worthy's fantasy value.
