2024 Fantasy Outlook
After ranking as a top-5 fantasy quarterback four of his five years as a starter (twice as No. 1), Mahomes fell to a career-low QB8 last season. He got little help from his wide receivers, who struggled to stretch the field and dropped a league-high 28 passes -- 12.0 percent of catchable targets. A quarter of Mahomes’ attempts were at or behind the line of scrimmage and two-thirds were within 10 yards of the line, both career highs, as his average target depth dropped to a career-low 6.5 yards and his YPA followed suit at 7.0. Mahomes also saw a predictable decrease in red-zone pass attempts after the previous season's NFL-record 123, which led to 10 fewer TD passes inside the 20-yard line. Having perhaps the greatest tight end in NFL history covers a lot of ills, however, and Mahomes will again have Travis Kelce as his favorite target this season. No. 1 WR Rashee Rice, who came on strong late last year, could be suspended, but the team signed fleet-footed Marquise Brown and drafted Xavier Worthy, a first-round pick who ran a 4.21 40 at the Combine -- the fastest since at least 2003. That’s likely a better group than Mahomes had to begin last year, which, coupled with positive regression in red-zone attempts and rushing scores (none last season), has him poised for a return to the top 5 among fantasy quarterbacks.

Losing playmakers
Mahomes completed 19 of 29 passes for 245 yards, one touchdown and one interception in Sunday's 17-10 win over the Chargers.
ANALYSIS
Mahomes showed impressive efficiency by averaging 8.5 yards per attempt, though it didn't lead to a strong fantasy showing. The latter is understandable given that the Chiefs lost another key pass catcher after Rashee Rice (knee) went down, leaving Travis Kelce and rookie Xavier Worthy as Mahomes' top two targets. The highlight of his performance came late in the second quarter when he found Worthy for a 54-yard touchdown. With Rice and Hollywood Brown (shoulder) both sidelined for the long term, it may be difficult for Mahomes to turn in his typical fantasy performances on a regular basis.

Mahomes entered last season with questions about how he would fare without speedster Tyreek Hill for the first time. All he did was finish QB1 in fantasy, claim another MVP, win another Super Bowl and prove he’s the best quarterback on the planet. How he did it, though, is the interesting part. Mahomes threw deep on a career-low 8.2 percent of his attempts, 24th in the league. Instead, he chewed up the intermediate field -- no quarterback had more attempts than Mahomes’ 173 in the range of 8-18 yards. That’s a logical strategy when you have the NFL’s best tight end in Travis Kelce. He and his teammates totaled a league-high 2,850 yards after the catch, 54.2 percent of Mahomes’ career-high 5,250 passing yards, giving him league’s second-highest YPA at 8.1. Mahomes also capitalized on a league-high 72 red-zone drives for 34 of his league-leading 41 TD passes. A slight regression there is possible, and JuJu Smith-Schuster (78 catches) is gone. But Marquez Valdes-Scantling is back as the deep threat, Kadarius Toney -- who joined K.C. midseason last year -- is likely to get more work, and the team drafted WR Rashee Rice in the second round. The offensive line is still solid, with Jawaan Taylor replacing Orlando Brown. And, of course, there’s Kelce, with whom Mahomes teamed for a 118.7 passer rating, the third highest by a QB-receiver tandem in the league (min. 75 targets). Throw in another 350 yards and a couple scores on the ground and Mahomes could be one of the few QBs to repeat as QB1.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Loses another key target
Mahomes could be without top wide receiver Rashee Rice for the rest of the season, as Adam Schefter of ESPN reports that Rice is feared to have torn his ACL in Sunday's 17-10 win over the Chargers.
ANALYSIS
If Monday's MRI confirms a torn ACL for Rice, he would be out for the remainder of the season. Hollywood Brown is already sidelined for the regular season due to a shoulder injury, so Mahomes could be without two of the team's projected top three wide receivers heading into the regular season. Rookie first-round pick Xavier Worthy is likely to lead Kansas City's wide-receiver room moving forward.
