Antonio Williams Primed for More Targets with Terry McLaurin Sidelined
Head coach Dan Quinn recently highlighted that Stefon Diggs won't see an expanded workload with Terry McLaurin sidelined, explicitly calling on Williams to step up. The rookie wideout has flashed impressive efficiency when called upon, totaling 18 receptions for 205 yards and a touchdown through six games, including 50 receiving yards on four targets in his last outing.
Our weekly projection slates Williams for 7.4 fantasy points, estimating roughly 2.7 receptions for 34 yards against Philadelphia. Rostered in just 18% of leagues, the increased opportunity elevates him into a viable deep-league flex option and priority bench stash.

Outlook Emmett Johnson
Emmett Johnson at Denver — Backup Role Limits Standalone Value
Emmett Johnson remains entrenched as Kansas City's primary backup behind Kenneth Walker, especially with reserve back Brashard Smith recently placed on injured reserve. While the rookie has earned praise and carved out a minor passing-down presence—hauling in four receptions across his last two games—rushing opportunities remain very limited in this backfield rotation.
Our weekly projections slate Johnson for around 5 fantasy points, forecasting roughly 3 carries for 9 yards alongside 2 catches for 18 yards against Denver. With a low projected game total and Walker commanding the bulk of touches, Johnson's 2% start rate confirms he should remain safely on fantasy benches as a bench stash.
