Dwayne Bowe likely to play in Week 11, fantasy value high against Broncos

The Kansas City Chiefs should have Dwayne Bowe in the lineup in Week 11. We break down the fantasy implications.

Denny Medley-USA TODAY Sports

The Kansas City Chiefs will likely have wide receiver Dwayne Bowe available to them hen they play the Denver Broncos on Sunday in Week 11, according to Ed Werder of ESPN. Bowe was arrested for charges of speeding and possession of a controlled substance on Sunday night, but the team will likely not take any action until the case is resolved.

That could take months at this point. Bowe could end up playing the remainder of the season with no issues. Either way, his presence will definitely be needed this week as the 9-0 Chiefs take on the AFC West rival Broncos, who are 8-1 on the season. Few expected the Chiefs to be anywhere close to undefeated at this point, but the Broncos were always expected to be this good, so Denver is favored by most prognosticators.

Bowe hasn’t been as effective this year as he has in recent years. That’s partially due to the fact that the Chiefs are not a pass-first team, and maybe just a bit of him slowing down in the end. He has 33 receptions for 369 yards and two touchdowns though, and is one of Kansas City’s top offensive weapons.

Fantasy Impact: If there's a player who can break out and put up huge numbers on Sunday, it's Bowe. The Broncos have a very poor secondary, and teams have to keep up with Peyton Manning and his scoring production. Bowe should be the primary target on Sunday and he should flourish. He's a must-start in Week 11.
