Rice received only 2 targets in Week 1 against Denver, a 7% target share—the lowest he's had for the Chiefs since breaking out in Week 12 of 2023 (previous low was 17%). Mark Dankenbring attributes this to the Chiefs' new offensive philosophy with Kenneth Walker in the backfield; the offense targeted running backs at the second-highest rate in the league and Xavier Worthy at the line of scrimmage 35% of the time, suggesting a game plan built around protecting Patrick Mahomes against Denver's pass rush without starting LT Josh Simmons. Rice is a player who needs high volume to produce and does not perform well on low volume. Ranked 50th overall (down from higher pre-season expectations). Daigle suggests holding and waiting to see if this was Broncos-specific; the knee may also improve through the season.NegativeUsageSep 15, 2026
Rasheed Rice saw a concerningly low usage in Week 1, recording only two targets for a 7% share. Evan Silva notes that the addition of Kenneth Walker has neutered Rice's role in a more conservative, run-centric Chiefs offense. Additionally, there are lingering concerns regarding the health of Rice's knee, which he was rehabbing during the offseason.NegativeBustSep 3, 2026
Evan Silva and Adam Levitan advise against drafting Rashee Rice in round three due to health concerns following knee surgery, potential suspension risk, and a reduced role caused by the arrival of Kenneth Walker.PositiveUsageSep 1, 2026
“I think the pass volume will be down, and I also think that Kenneth Walker will just take a lot of those touches around the line of scrimmage.” @evansilva, @adamlevitan, and @MarkDank make the cases for and against Rashee Rice:NegativeBustAug 29, 2026
Evan Silva is concerned about Rasheed Rice's health, legal issues, and the impact of Kenneth Walker's arrival on the Chiefs' pass volume. Silva has placed Rice on his "shy away" list.NegativeInjuryAug 4, 2026
Concerns regarding Rashee Rice's injury status continue to linger.PositiveProjectionJul 28, 2026
If Rasheed Rice avoids an NFL suspension—which Silva believes is increasingly unlikely given the NFL's reduced suspension frequency in recent years—he will perform at an elite level in fantasy; Silva states 'Rasheed Rice will crush in fantasy. No question.'PositiveValueJul 28, 2026
Silva ranks Rasheed Rice at 45 overall in half-PPR but notes he is significantly better in full-PPR formats; Silva expects to move him up as he gains more confidence, acknowledging the current ranking is well behind market expectations.NegativeBustJul 28, 2026
Silva does not trust Rasheed Rice whatsoever as a player. While Rice could catch 100 balls if everything goes smoothly off the field, Silva is concerned about his reliability and character. Additionally, Rice may not be entirely out of the woods regarding a potential NFL suspension, which adds uncertainty to his season outlook.PositiveProjectionJul 28, 2026
Rasheed Rice has been cleared in full after his knee injury and jail situation. He averaged 6.4 catches per game over the last two years while constantly dealing with injuries. If he stays healthy all season, he could catch 100-110+ balls, which would not be shocking. In full PPR scoring, Rasheed Rice is a pretty strong pick. He is a candidate to lead the NFL in catches.PositiveValueMay 25, 2026
Rice's ADP has fallen due to his off-field issues, but he remains a better play in full PPR formats where he can excel on underneath routes.NegativeInjuryMay 25, 2026
Rasheed Rice is recovering from a knee surgery while also facing legal issues, which has caused his ADP to drop significantly.PositiveProjectionNo date
