Rice used to occupy linebackers; health status affects Royals' snap allocation.

Wide receiver Rashee Rice ran underneath routes to occupy backside linebackers in Denver's coverage schemes. The source notes Rice is one of the Chiefs' only NFL-caliber wide receivers against Denver's top-tier cornerbacks. Rice is expected to get healthier, which should reduce snaps for Jalen Royals.
