The Chiefs' second round pick in the 2019 NFL Draft, Mecole Hardman was immediately thrust into significant playing time when Tyreek Hill went down in Week 1. Hardman's world class speed made him a hot fantasy add as many believed that he'd step in and at least produce a good amount of what Hill typically did on the field. It did pay off right away as Hardman scored touchdowns in each of his first two real opportunities in Weeks 2 and 3, but he then trailed off into fantasy purgatory when Hill made his return. The only games where Hardman reached 40 offensive snaps were when Hill was injured and he failed to reach even 30 snaps in all but one game after Week 5.
Sure, he's likely to get more playing time in 2020 as he'll have another year of experience under his belt, but Hardman isn't likely to suddenly supplant Sammy Watkins as the WR2.
While Hardman might be an interesting player to go after in some best ball formats because of his big play explosive ability, he's going to be almost impossible to predict on a weekly basis thus making him an extremely frustrating fantasy asset in normal leagues. He's essentially the wide receiver equivalent of a "handcuff" for Hill and that's asking for a lot to make him a quality fantasy asset.

Sammy Watkins a gametime decision Chiefs not optimistic he will play By: Mike Krueger | Sun Jan 24, 7:00 am

| | Chiefs likely will have running back Clyde Edwards-Helaire but be without Le'Veon Bell for today’s AFC Championship Game against the Buffalo Bills, per source.
Additionally, the Chiefs will test WR Sammy Watkins pregame, but don’t sound optimistic he will play today. (Adam Schefter on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: Watkins has been battling a calf injury for several weeks now and it sounds like he's going to end up on the Inactive list along with Le'Veon Bell. That would make Mecole Hardman and Demarcus Robinson viable cheap DFS options for the two-game slate. Expect CEH and Darrel Williams to handle the running back duties.

| Chiefs rule out Tyreek Hill, Sammy Watkins JV-Team scheduled to play against Chargers By: Mike Krueger | Fri Jan 1, 3:16 pm

| | Chiefs ruled out Tyreek Hill,, Clyde Edwards-Helaire and Sammy Watkins, to go along with Patrick Mahomes, for Sunday’s game vs. the Chargers. (Adam Schefter on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: The Chiefs will be rolling out the JV-team against the Chargers in the season finale. QB Chad Henne, RB Darrel Williams, RB Darwin Thompson, WR Demarcus Robinson, WR Mecole Hardman and WR Byron Pringle should be the main offensive contributors for Kansas City.

| Sammy Watkins ruled out, Hardman activated from COVID list Calf, Hamstring injuries for Watkins By: Mike Krueger | Sat Nov 21, 3:00 pm

| | Sammy Watkins has been ruled OUT for Sunday’s game.
Taco Charlton and Mitchell Schwartz have been placed on IR.
Alex Okafor and L’Jarius Sneed have been activated from IR.
Gehrig Dieter and Bryan Witzmann have been activated from the practice squad.
Mecole Hardman has been activated from Reserve/COVID. (Chiefs on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: Sammy Watkins continues to struggle with injuries. He reportedly injured his calf in practice this week. He last played in Week 5. The return of Hardman off the COVID-19 list and the rule out of Watson gives Hardman some Flex appeal in Week 11.

| Sammy Watkins expected to play in Week 11 Hamstring injury By: Mike Krueger | Thu Nov 19, 1:13 pm

| | #chiefs Sammy Watkins (hamstring) is set to return Sunday against the #Raiders. He’s been out since injuring that hamstring in Week 5 against Las Vegas and has looked good in practice this week. (James Palmer on Twitter)
FFToday's Take: With Mecole Hardman on the COVID-19 list we could see a lot of Watkins against the Raiders on Sunday night. Watkins is worthy of Flex consideration against a Raiders defense that's middle of the pack in fantasy points allowed to wide receivers.
