INSIGHT

Herbert's Ceiling Has Fallen Without Alt

  • Justin Herbert's ceiling has fallen with offensive-line breakdowns and limited passing since Joe Alt's injury. Recent splits show Herbert averaging only ~160 passing yards and one TD per game over five games without Alt.
ADVICE

Favor Estime After Early Usage Spike

  • Prefer Audrick Estime over Evan Hull this week based on last week's snap and route-share usage. Start Estime as a potential RB2 if he reaches 12–15 touches and finds red-zone work.
INSIGHT

Mahomes Injury Boosts Kelce And Worthy Role

  • Patrick Mahomes' injury reshapes Chiefs usage but Gardner Minshew can preserve Travis Kelce's value if Rasheed Rice misses time. Xavier Worthy becomes a stronger start candidate if Rice sits, reclaiming Rice's role and target share.
