Outlook Ted Hurst
Ted Hurst at Carolina — Expanded Opportunity in Division Matchup
Ted Hurst is positioned for an elevated workload this week as starting wideout Emeka Egbuka has been ruled out with a concussion and foot injury. Operating on the perimeter alongside Chris Godwin, Hurst already showed promise last time out by commanding six targets for three receptions and 40 receiving yards.
Our projections forecast Hurst for roughly five targets, 2.7 receptions, and 38 receiving yards, yielding 8.1 fantasy points. With roster rates hovering around 4%, the rookie is not a recommended play in standard leagues, but his growing involvement makes him an appealing deep-league flex option against Carolina.

Outlook Xavier Worthy
Xavier Worthy at Seattle — Expanding Target Volume Elevates Flex Value
Worthy is fully healthy and stepping into elevated volume for Kansas City, especially with Rashee Rice ruled out due to hamstring and knee injuries. Over his last two games, Worthy's target share has steadily grown, earning seven targets in each contest and reeling in all seven for 73 yards in his most recent outing.
Our weekly projection expects Worthy to produce 11.5 fantasy points, anticipating over six targets and approximately 50 receiving yards against Seattle. With fantasy managers pushing his start rate up to 50%, his explosive speed and growing role make him a quality WR3 or flex option this week.
