Chiefs re-signed WR Tyquan Thornton to a two-year, $11 million contract.

10 March 2026

Thornton caught 19 passes for a career-high 438 yards and three touchdowns as the Chiefs’ deep ball receiver in 2025. The Chiefs’ receiving cupboard is bare but Thornton at least had a connection with Patrick Mahomes on deep targets. He returns to Kansas City on a two-year deal and will be in the mix for WR4 on the Chiefs’ depth chart in 2026. For fantasy purposes, Thornton will be a boom-or-bust dart throw again, but the Chiefs’ wide receiver moves later in the offseason will shape his value.
