Kadarius Toney Disastrous In Season Opener

Kadarius Toney Disastrous In Season Opener

one year ago

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Kadarius Toney caught 1-of-5 targets for one receiving yard and lost a yard on his lone carry in Thursday's 21-20 loss to the Detroit Lions. There's no way of sugarcoating it: Toney's 2023 debut was downright brutal. He committed at least three drops, hearing jeers from the crowd on a key fourth-quarter drop late in the game. It was the 24-year-old's first action following late-July knee surgery that cost him the preseason, but Toney's Week 1 showing was mostly inexcusable. Frustrated fantasy managers may be quick to pull the drop trigger after such a discouraging display, but Toney's talent, albeit tantalizing, means he should probably be held on the end of benches before making any rash decisions. However, the enigmatic Toney should be nowhere near fantasy lineups until he establishes some semblance of consistency.
