Michael Mayer vs. Chiefs — Secondary Target in a High-Scoring AFC West Showdown

Operating as the secondary tight end behind Brock Bowers in heavy multi-tight-end sets, Mayer has maintained a steady but low-volume role. Over the first three games, he has secured 12 of 14 targets for 87 yards and a touchdown after signing a multi-year contract extension earlier this season.

Las Vegas hosts Kansas City in an undefeated division clash projected for plenty of scoring. However, our projection expects Mayer to see roughly 3 to 4 targets for 22 receiving yards (5.5 fantasy points). With start rates sitting near 2%, he remains firmly on the bench in standard leagues.

Roman Wilson at Cleveland — Expanding Role in Low-Scoring Divisional Clash

Wilson is carving out a steady role as Pittsburgh's starting slot receiver alongside perimeter targets DK Metcalf and Michael Pittman Jr. Coming off a three-catch, 60-yard outing featuring a touchdown against Cincinnati, Wilson has drawn exactly six targets in each of his first three contests with Aaron Rodgers under center.

While his steady target volume is encouraging, he is rostered in just 3% of leagues. A low-scoring divisional road environment against Cleveland keeps his ceiling grounded, and our projections forecast roughly 2.3 receptions for 27 yards. He profiles as a speculative stash or deep-league play who remains touchdown-dependent.
