Chiefs Plan To Activate Mecole Hardman Jr. From Injured Reserve

11 months ago

The Kansas City Chiefs plan to activate wide receiver Mecole Hardman Jr. (thumb) from Injured Reserve on Saturday, according to sources. Hardman will bring some much-needed receiver help for the Chiefs, especially with Kadarius Toney (hip) set to miss his second straight game. Hardman has been out since late November with a thumb sprain that required surgery. The 25-year-old was given a questionable designation to play in Week 17 against the Cincinnati Bengals, but if he's activated on Saturday, he'll be active on Sunday to give KC some more receiver depth behind rookie Rashee Rice, Justin Watson and Marquez Valdes-Scantling. Hardman will be competing for snaps with Richie James and won't be on the fantasy radar during championship week in fantasy. In four games since coming over in a trade from the New York Jets, Hardman has eight catches for 41 yards on 10 targets.
