Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Dwayne Bowe (groin) practiced on Friday and will be all-systems-go in the team's Week 9 game against the Buffalo Bills. Bowe hasn't missed a game this season and will continue to be the Chief's No. 1 receiver.
Dwayne Bowe injury update: Listed as probable, will start for fantasy owners
The Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver is listed as probable and will start in Week 9. We break down the fantasy implications.

Fantasy Impact: Bowe's season has been highly disappointing by every account. The Chiefs are now the NFL's sole remaining undefeated squad, so there is little reason to believe that this story will take a turn for the better. In eight starts in the year, Bowe has let down fantasy owners to the tune of 26 catches for 302 yards and two touchdowns on the year. To put those numbers into perspective, Detroit Lions star receiver Calvin Johnson surpassed that yardage total in one game last week against the Dallas Cowboys. While nobody expects Bowe to put up those kind of numbers, fantasy owners are painfully aware that he has left much to be desired this year.
Although Kansas City does have a favorable match up against Buffalo, Bowe will remain nothing more than a weak Flex play. Bowe hasn’t scored a touchdown since Week 4 and owners have to little reason to expect a bounce-back performance.
