Los Angeles Chargers DFS Spin
Keenan Allen (hamstring) is out for Week 2 against the Chiefs. As expected. The short week was just too much to overcome, but it sounds like Allen’s hamstring injury isn’t too severe. The Chargers’ wideout trio Thursday night will likely be Mike Williams and Josh Palmer outside and DeAndre Carter in the slot. Williams and Palmer are prime bounce-back candidates after sluggish Week 1 outputs. Williams and Palmer were Nos. 1 and 2 in routes for the Chargers in Week 1.
Kansas City Chiefs DFS Spin
Patrick Mahomes (wrist) practiced in full on Tuesday. There’s been no indication that he’ll miss any time, but in case you were worried, back-to-back full practices make it likely that he’ll play on Thursday Night Football. Kansas City will take on the Chargers with Mahomes under center.
