When it comes to the competition forming at wide receiver for the precious few roster spots available on the K.C. Chiefs roster, Daurice Fountain is often an overlooked name. After Saturday’s performance against the San Francisco 49ers, he’s definitely earned more notice going forward.

In the Chiefs opening preseason win over the Niners, Fountain was able to lead all receivers in yards with four catches on six targets for 38 yards.
