The Kansas City Chiefs will host the Denver Broncos in Week 17. Here’s the latest fantasy football news and advice to help you with your lineups this week and moving forward, specifically regarding WR Marquise Brown.

Should You Start or Sit Brown in Week 17?
We thought it might be the case and last week in Tennessee proved it to be true: we are done with the 2025 Chiefs.
Personally, I think it’s premature to say this dynastic run is over, but I have no reservations in saying that we are onto 2026 when it comes to this franchise.Against one of the worst teams in the league, their 24 passes netted 82 yards with no real touchdown equity.
Brown led the pass catchers in receptions with three, but is that saying anything of consequence with Rashee Rice and Tyquan Thornton sidelined? This offense has been a foundational piece of fantasy championships at various points over the past decade, but don’t get sucked in: there’s no value in streaming any of the available pieces of this unit.
