ESPN's Jeremy Fowler expects WR DeAndre Hopkins to have a "small menu of plays" in his Chiefs debut vs. the Raiders. Fowler notes that WRs Kadarius Toney and Mecole Hardman played 9 and 11 snaps, respectively, in their first games with the Chiefs after being acquired via in-season trade in recent years. Hopkins is a much better WR than either of those guys, so we're expecting him to play more snaps than that. But he's unlikely to play enough to make him a reliable Week 8 fantasy start. Try to keep him on the bench this week.
