Role fades in Worthy's return
Thornton recorded one reception on two targets for 11 yards and a touchdown in Sunday's 37-20 win over the Ravens.
ANALYSIS
Thornton was Kansas City's top pass catcher in Week 3, but he was an afterthought Sunday with Xavier Worthy active for the first time since Week 1. Thornton made the most of his opportunities with an 11-yard touchdown catch down the middle of the field to kick off the second half, however. He has found the end zone in three straight games, but his current role makes him an unreliable fantasy option.

2022
Over the first two years of his pro career, Thornton, a 2022 second-rounder, has had trouble staying on the field and been limited to 35 catches in 22 contests. With an eye toward holding up better, the 6-2, 185-pounder sought to bulk up ahead of this season. Thornton's speed remains his calling card, and that's what could help him stick around if he has a strong summer under the tutelage of new offensive coordinator Alex Van Pelt. On the plus side, Thornton, 24, figures to have a clean slate with the team's new coaching staff, but the Baylor product has plenty of competition for targets in a crowded wideout corps that lacks a clear pecking order ahead of training camp.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Fellow speedster returns Sunday
Thornton, who's served as the Chiefs' most consistent downfield threat in the absence of Xavier Worthy over the last two-plus games, will see his teammate return to action in Sunday's Week 4 matchup against the Ravens, Nate Taylor of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Thornton has arguably shown nearly as much promise over his first three games in Kansas City than he did over his three seasons in New England combined after the Patriots selected him in the second round of the 2022 NFL Draft. The speedster has particularly thrived in the two full games Worthy has missed, posting a combined 7-130-2 line on 14 targets in that span. However, Worthy's return gives the Chiefs back their most potent deep threat, and it remains to be seen if Thornton will therefore see a reduction in downfield routes.
