ANALYSIS: Tyreek Hill didn’t have his best game of the season in the Chiefs' loss to the Buccaneers, but still led all wideouts in yards receiving despite being third on the team in targets behind Travis Kelce (nine) and Chris Conley (eight). Hill caught four of his five targets for 53 yards on the day, with most of his damage coming on a long, 42-yard reception in the second quarter. He could have scored on the play had he been hit in stride, but the ball was a bit under-thrown by Alex Smith.
Hill has become the preferred deep threat in the passing game for the Chiefs this season, with five receptions of 25 yards or more. Those five plays have all come within the past five weeks, and he is tied for the team lead in such plays with Spencer Ware. He also has the highest catch percentage in the red zone this season for the Chiefs, with six receptions on seven targets (85.7%). Volume will keep any Chiefs WR from being a great option, but given the amount of usage he has seen recently with how many deep passes he catches, Hill makes for a solid flex/depth add for the final few weeks of the fantasy regular season.
