The San Francisco 49ers take on the Kansas City Chiefs Sunday for the first time in the regular season since the two teams met in Super Bowl LIV. This matchup comes with plenty of fantasy football stars, including Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes.

KC Joyner is a contributor to The Athletic, focusing on fantasy football and sports gambling. On Thursday, he joined Cattles & Ramie to discuss the upcoming fantasy football week.

Topics discussed include:

  • Which 49ers running back KC prefers in the short and long-term
  • Is Patrick Mahomes defense proof?
  • How will Dak Prescott look in his return from injury?
  • With Dak’s return, what is the outlook for CeeDee Lamb and Michael Gallup?
  • With another week of byes, which tight ends should owners grab?
  • KC expects to see the Ezekiel Elliott of old against the Detroit Lions
  • Should a Patriots quarterback, whether it’s a returning Mac Jones or Bailey Zappe, be played against the Chicago defense?
  • If Jimmy Garoppolo is a good streaming, Bye Week quarterback
  • The strength of Gabe Davis’ schedule through the end of the year
