"A neck stinger forced Latu to miss last Saturday's win over the Commanders. However, with a full practice under his belt to begin Week 17 prep, it's likely he'll be able to return to action Sunday versus Buffalo. Latu typically sees most of his work on special teams, and that may not change moving forward with three other healthy tight ends on the roster."

"Burden was selected by Chicago in the second round of April's draft. He is a bit undersized (his 8.5-inch hands tied for smallest in this class), but he's very young (21) and was highly relied upon and productive during three seasons at Missouri. He's fast with terrific playmaking ability and can align all over the formation. Burden is set to replace Keenan Allen as Chicago's slot man, but there are a lot of mouths to feed in an offense that also includes DJ Moore, Rome Odunze and Colston Loveland. Consistent Year 1 fantasy production is unlikely, so Burden is only worth a late flier."

"Burden went without a catch in the first half before reeling in three passes after the break. The wide receiver was unable to build off of his recent momentum, recording his fewest catches since Week 12 and his lowest yardage total in four weeks. Burden will finish his rookie campaign having caught 47 of 60 targets for 652 yards and two touchdowns while also turning six carries into 37 yards over 15 regular-season contests, and he'll now make his postseason debut in the wild-card round against the Packers next weekend."

	Luther Burden III's receiving yards have increased by 172.64% over the past 6 weeks.
	Luther Burden III's target share has increased by 96.57% over the past 8 weeks.
	Luther Burden III's targets have increased by 153.33% over the past 12 weeks.
	Luther Burden III's receptions have increased by 120.0% over the past 8 weeks.
	Luther Burden III's rushing yards per attempt has decreased by 75.0+% over the past 6 weeks.

"Smith was selected by the Chiefs in the seventh round of April's draft. He is one of the smallest RBs in this class (194 pounds) and, while he ran a solid 4.39 40 at the combine, he showed poorly in the vertical (32.5) and broad (117). A converted WR, Smith was elusive but otherwise pedestrian as a rusher in his lone season as a collegiate RB. He'll open his career behind Isiah Pacheco, Kareem Hunt and Elijah Mitchell, and may settle in as a kick returner/reserve in the pros."

"Smith got the chance to serve as the lead back for the Chiefs with Isiah Pacheco (rest) sidelined. Smith led the team with 12 rushing attempts -- his highest mark since Week 7 -- and delivered solid chunk gains of 14, 10 and nine yards. He was not utilized much in his rookie season, but Smith's potential role in 2026 will be worth monitoring, as Kansas City is likely to remake its running back depth chart."
