Tyquan Thornton | Fantasy Outlook

Tyquan Thornton @ LV — Deep-threat flyer in an undefeated divisional clash

Thornton continues to operate as an outside deep threat for Kansas City alongside Xavier Worthy and Rashee Rice. After securing six catches for 108 yards across his last two appearances, his vertical speed keeps him involved, though his target share remains modest in an offense running through Travis Kelce.

Rostered in just 3% of leagues with a 1% start rate, Thornton remains off the fantasy radar in standard leagues. Our weekly projection anticipates roughly one to two catches for 26 yards against Las Vegas. In a dome matchup with high-scoring potential, he offers boom-or-bust appeal as a deep-league flier, but lacks the consistent target floor required for regular lineups.
