Joshua Palmer Week 14 Outlook - Chargers at Chiefs

By Derek Brown (FantasyPros), Thu, Dec 5th 2024, 1:05pm EST

Palmer is a flex play that really only comes into focus if McConkey misses this week or if you're in a deep league and you're desperate. The Chiefs have the third-highest two high rate in the NFL (60.1%). Since Week 8, against two high (minimum 50 routes), Palmer ranks third in TPRR (13%), second in YPRR (2.17), and fourth in first-read share (15.7%). Since Week 7, Palmer has seen only one red zone target, so his chances of scoring a touchdown this week are slim unless he breaks a big play. He does have a favorable matchup against a secondary that has been struggling recently. Since Week 8, Kansas City has allowed the tenth-most PPR points per target to perimeter wide receivers.
