Noah Gray - Leading receiver on four targets Gray brought in all four of his targets for 66 yards in Sunday's 28-18 win over the 49ers.

Impact Gray finished as the Chiefs' leading receiver in a odd game that featured no passing touchdowns from either side. San Francisco keyed its defensive focus on limiting star tight end Travis Kelce (4-17-0), allowing the 25-year-old Gray to operate freely for his highest receiving total of the season. Fantasy managers should consider this a high-water mark for Gray so long as Kelce remains healthy, which the latter should be for next Sunday's tilt against the Raiders.

Xavier Worthy - Leads team with eight targets Worthy had three receptions (eight targets) for 19 yards and added one carry for five yards in Sunday's 28-18 win over San Francisco.

Impact Worthy continued to operate as the Chiefs' top wideout sans Rashee Rice (knee) in Week 7, churning out a similar stat line to his previous start Week 5. The 21-year-old Worthy was unable to hit pay dirt like he did against the Saints, but he did lead Kansas City in targets (eight) on a day when the ground game led the team to victory. The speedy wideout did exit Sunday's contest briefly to be evaluated in the medical tent, but he promptly returned to action and finished the contest without issue. Worthy carries fantasy value in his elevated role, with fantasy managers hoping for a big play or two against a rebuilding Raiders squad next Sunday.

Kareem Hunt - Continues to excel as starter Hunt rushed 22 times for 78 yards and two touchdowns while corralling both of his targets for five receiving yards in Sunday's 28-18 win over San Francisco.

Impact Hunt maintained his status as lead back after churning out 102 rushing yards and a touchdown in his first official start for Kansas City in Week 5. The 29-year-old kept momentum rolling with another standout fantasy performance, this time punching in two scores on 20-plus touches against the 49ers on Sunday. Clyde Edwards-Helaire (reserve/NFI list) was activated earlier in the week to help replace the loss of starter Isiah Pacheco (fibula), but the former did not suit up for Sunday's contest. Hunt is thriving as the starter in Kansas City and does not appear to face any threats to his playing time, making the veteran back an elite fantasy option heading into a soft matchup against the Raiders next Sunday.

Travis Kelce - Little room to operate in win Kelce finished with four receptions (five targets) for 17 yards in Sunday's 28-18 win over the 49ers.

Impact It was clear that the 49ers came into this contest with a game plan to limit Kelce for a shorthanded Chiefs offense. While the opponent's defensive strategy was successful, it did not lead to a win, as Patrick Mahomes and Kansas City's rushing attack (four combined touchdowns) took care of business Sunday. Kelce was coming off of a pair of strong fantasy outings in his previous two contests, so managers will be hoping for a bounce-back performance against the Raiders next Sunday.

Patrick Mahomes - Trucks defender for TD Mahomes completed 16 of 27 pass attempts for 154 yards, no passing touchdowns and two interceptions while rushing five times for 39 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 28-18 win over...

Impact Mahomes produced his worst passing performance through six games this season, but he salvaged his fantasy day by generating his best rushing line against San Francisco in a rematch of last year's Super Bowl. The deceptively fast quarterback performed a ball fake on a scramble that allowed him to split three defenders for 33 yards. Mahomes finished off that same drive by trucking the only defender that stood between him and the end zone for his first rushing touchdown of the season. The Chiefs remain undefeated heading into a soft road matchup against the Raiders next Sunday.

Jaylen Watson - On crutches Watson (ankle) was on crutches and wearing a cast after Sunday's 28-18 win over the 49ers, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.

Impact The cornerback suffered the injury during the game after making three tackles (two solo). Watson has 32 tackles (21 solo) and six passes defensed this season. Joshua Williams and Nazeeh Johnson should see more action if Watson is forced to miss time.

JuJu Smith-Schuster - Ruled out for rest of Week 7 Smith-Schuster (hamstring) won't return to Sunday's game against the 49ers, Cam Inman of the Bay Area News Group reports.

Impact Smith-Schuster has been ruled out after previously being deemed questionable to return. He aggravated a hamstring injury that had bothered Smith-Schuster during practice Thursday and Friday. The veteran wide receiver wasn't targeted prior to exiting the game. His next chance to suit up will be Week 8 in Vegas.

JuJu Smith-Schuster - Aggravates hamstring issue Smith-Schuster left Sunday's contest in San Francisco due to a hamstring injury, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.

Impact Smith-Schuster showed up on the Chiefs' Week 7 practice report midweek due to a hamstring issue, which capped his reps Thursday and Friday. While he entered the weekend as questionable, he eventually was deemed active about 90 minutes before Sunday's kickoff. With Hollywood Brown (shoulder) and Rashee Rice (knee) on injured reserve, Smith-Schuster is among the top remaining available options at WR for KC, but he now will cede snaps to Xavier Worthy, Justin Watson, Mecole Hardman and Skyy Moore.
