Friday PM update: Smith-Schuster was able to practice in full for the second day in a row on Friday. He seems to be past his illness and doesn’t have any sort of designation heading into the weekend.
Deon Bush is questionable for Sunday's game. Kadarius Toney is out.

Thursday update: Smith-Schuster was back at practice Thursday after missing Wednesday’s session entirely with an illness. We don’t know his workload yet but he’s trending in the right direction for a showdown with the Bengals in Week 13.
Week 13 of the NFL season is here. One of the highly anticipated matchups of the week will feature a rematch of the 2022 AFC Championship game. The Kansas City Chiefs will hit the road to take on the Cincinnati Bengals. The Chiefs are having a down year and are rotating who is getting highlighted in the offense. They have been dealing with injuries, and wide receiver JuJu Smith-Schuster is starting the week off by missing practice due to an illness.
JuJu Smith-Schuster, Jerick McKinnon, and Kadarius Toney did not practice today.

Deon Bush was limited.
Fantasy football implications for Week 13
Smith-Schuster is playing on a one-year deal and looking to prove himself. He is the team’s leading wide receiver and second overall to only star tight end Travis Kelce. Smith-Schuster has played in 10 games and has 49 receptions on 67 targets for 653 yards and two touchdowns. While his last two games have been down performances, Smith-Schuster tends to get a decent target share in the offense, making him an interesting flex play if he is active. If Smith-Schuster misses another game, it would be Kadarius Toney that sees an uptick in the passing game.
