Avant finished the 2015 season with just 15 catches for 119 yards on 24 targets.

EDGE Analysis

The veteran wideout struggled to find the field consistently, and averaged less than a grab per game as a result. He signed just one-year contract with the Chiefs before the 2015 campaign, and could be a candidate for retirement in the offseason if he can't find work elsewhere.

Wilson caught both of the two passes thrown his way Sunday for 26 yards against the Chargers.

EDGE Analysis

Avant continues to work in a limited role, but did see 34 snaps to rank third among receivers Sunday. He'll face a decent matchup next Sunday against a Bills team allowing 251.9 passing yards per game, but doesn't present a reliable option given the usual offensive gameplan.

Avant saw limited action in Sunday's game against the Steelers, collecting two passes for 11 yards.

EDGE Analysis

Avant hauled in both of his targets on the day, but saw limited action despite being the Chiefs third option at receiver in the absence of Jeremy Maclin (concussion). He'll likely continue to see the field in a limited fashion, but won't see enough volume to be worthy of fantasy consideration in most formats.

Avant caught four passes for 43 yards in Sunday's game against the Bengals.

EDGE Analysis

Avant's four grabs and 43 yards marks his highest output through the first four weeks this season. Regardless, he's still just totaled 51 yards on six catches this season, and remains on the periphery of the Chiefs' offensive plans.

Avant caught just two passes for eight yards in Monday's loss to the Packers.

EDGE Analysis

While he caught just two passes, the veteran wideout was actually targeted four times in the contest. The fact that the Chiefs were behind the whole second half likely played into his boosted playing time, however, so he'll likely continue seeing limited action, with a ceiling near the 38 snaps (54 percent) he saw Monday.

Avant (hip) played just nine snaps in Thursday's game against the Broncos.

EDGE Analysis

Avant has been listed on the injury report with a hip issue, but his full participation in practice this week likely indicates that's not the reason he's barely playing. The Chiefs tend to employ many heavy sets with multiple tight ends, and the Chiefs seem set to give De'Anthony Thomas more snaps. Both of theses factors will likely limit Avant's playing time on Sundays.

Avant (hip) is active for Sunday's game at Houston.

EDGE Analysis

It's not entirely clear where Avant fits on the depth chart with De'Anthony Thomas and Chris Conley also battling for time as the third wide receiver behind Jeremy Maclin and Albert Wilson. There's really no telling how many snaps he will get in this game.

Avant (hip) is officially listed as probable for Sunday's game against the Texans.

EDGE Analysis

Avant practiced in full all week, so it seems almost certain he'll take the field for Week 1. However, his role with the club remains a bit fuzzy at this point, but he should factor into some snaps in the slot. The Chiefs don't run four wide much, so if the veteran falls behind Albert Wilson and Chris Conley on the depth chart, he may not see the field much.

Avant (hip) was a full participant in practice Monday.

EDGE Analysis

While it appears as though Avant will likely be ready for Sunday's Week 1 contest against the Texans, it's unclear exactly what role he'll hold upon his return to the gridiron. The veteran wideout remains a candidate to see some snaps in the slot this season, but given the added depth at the position this season, he may see limited snaps.

Avant continues to suffer from a hip sprain.

EDGE Analysis

Avant's injury occurred last week, causing him to miss practice last Monday. He did play 14 snaps in Sunday's preseason game, but the veteran wideout failed to receive a target, and remains slightly hampered by the injury. If Avant is able to crack the 53-man roster, it's still unclear how much of a role he'll play on Sundays. Given his position in a run-oriented offense, he'll likely have minimal fantasy value this season.
