JuJu Smith-Schuster of the Kansas City Chiefs is dealing with a hamstring injury that has sidelined him since Week 7. His potential return for Week 9 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers remains uncertain, with the Chiefs prioritizing his long-term health. Smith-Schuster's role may also be affected by the addition of DeAndre Hopkins, who is expected to take on a significant role in the offense.
Despite showing promise earlier in the season, Smith-Schuster's fantasy value is now questionable due to increased competition for targets. As the Chiefs' passing game evolves, fantasy managers are advised to monitor his situation closely before making lineup decisions.
