Jon Baldwin ran ahead of Donnie Avery as the starter opposite Dwayne Bowe at minicamp on Wednesday.

Avery ran with the starters on Tuesday, so the two are likely just rotating. Baldwin is entering his third season, and is reportedly "looking good" without pads on. However, this is the same narrative as last spring. The Kansas City Star recently penciled Avery in as the likely starter once Week 1 rolls around. Baldwin is going to have to earn his playing time under a new regime.

Jon Baldwin was held without a catch on two targets in Kansas City's Week 17 loss to the Broncos.

In fairness to Baldwin, Brady Quinn was held to 46 passing yards on 16 attempts. Regardless, the no-show was just the latest in a long line of them for the Chiefs' 2011 first-round pick, and have 2013 shaping up as a make-or-break year for the 23-year-old wideout. Through 26 career games, Baldwin has just 41 catches for 579 yards and two touchdowns. Improving his own play next season will only be half the battle, as the Chiefs may not be assured of upgrading their bottom-three quarterback situation.

Jon Baldwin (illness) is probable for Week 16 against the Colts.

Baldwin could manage only two limited practices this week, but will be the Chiefs' "No. 1 receiver" against Indy. Baldwin should be zero-percent owned in redraft leagues.
