Mecole Hardman trolls upset fantasy owners on Twitter

Mecole Hardman is having too average of a season to care about what fantasy team he’s on

Fantasy football can either be a blessing or a curse depending on how you look it. No matter what though, don’t complain about your points to Kansas City’s Mecole Hardman.

The Chiefs wide receiver/ punt returner has been off to a sophomore slump early in 2020 despite Kansas City’s high-tempo offense. After quality numbers during his rookie campaign, multiple fantasy owners believed he’d a late-round steal and quality flex option on their way to victory.

Instead, he’s averaged 5.7 points per game and 40.7 points on the season. To put that in actual NFL stats, through seven games Hardman has tallied 15 receptions for 251 yards and two touchdowns.

Here’s the thing, do you think Hardman cares about if the “Dak Dak Goose” or “Tua Time 2.0” franchise is struggling to find another target? Think again.

Hardman has a point when it comes to being on a team

Hardman was drafted potentially as Tyreek Hill’s replacement following his off the field incidents right before the draft. Coming out of Georgia, the speedy return-man finished with 26 catches for 538 yards and six touchdowns. This season, Hardman has averaged roughly 40-60 percent of snaps in Eric Bieniemy’s calls.

Fantasy can give or take away joy from fans, but players really aren’t interested in what place they rank on your team. They might however care if players are struggling in their own league, hoping to avoid the punishment at the end of the season.

Moving into the second half of the season, maybe it’s best to keep on the bench until his breaks free. Given his explosive style of play, plus great line speed, there’s a chance he still becomes vital as the team’s No.3 option, even with former do-it-all Jets Le’Veon Bell taking reps as a pass-catcher.
