Chiefs Wide Receiver Preparing To Play In Week 5

The Kansas City Chiefs have been one of the leagues best offence's ever since Patrick Mahomes took over at Quarterback, and despite trading away Tyreek Hill in the off-season, they've still looked just as good, adding names like Marquez Valdes-Scantling, Skyy Moore and JuJu Smith-Schuster, and they'll need all of those weapons tonight as they battle the division rival Raiders and arguably the best wide receiver groups in the NFL. 

#Chiefs WR JuJu Smith-Schuster, who's listed as questionable with quad and hamstring injuries, is expected to play tonight against the #Raiders, per source.

Unfortunately for Kansas City, they've officially got Smith-Schuster marked as questionable ahead of the game, but according to all reports, he's going to play, and will be a huge part of the offence if the Chiefs want to head to 4-1. Through for games, the former Pittsburgh star has 19 catches for 224 yards without a Touchdown, which is a good contribution, but they'll need him to step up as the teams No. 1 if they want to make a huge run late in the year.

Either way, the Monday Night Football matchup is expected to be a great one, with one AFC West team looking to extend their division lead and get to 4-1, while the other is coming off their first win of the year, desperately needing a win to avoid going to 1-4, but this latest news should be a huge boost to this Kansas City team.
