Chiefs WR Rashee Rice suspension ends

Adam Schefter on X

Oct 13 · 9:39 AM EDT

Chiefs WR Rashee Rice’s six-game suspension is now over and he is eligible to play Sunday vs. the Raiders.

Related players: Patrick Mahomes

Fantasy Impact:

The Chiefs and Mahomes get back another weapon for their offense which looks to be clicking, at least at times this season, especially this week when knocking off the Lions on Sunday night. When we last saw Rice to start 2024, he collected 24 catches on 29 targets in three games, piling up 288 yards and two touchdowns. It may take a little time to get Rice up to speed, but Rice was with the team in training camp before his suspension started which should only help. The Chiefs host the Raiders in Week 7 in an early Sunday game.

Chiefs hopeful to have WR Xavier Worthy (shoulder) for Week 4

ESPN

Sep 23 · 3:37 PM EDT

Ahead of Sunday's game against the Baltimore Ravens (4:25 p.m. ET, CBS), the Chiefs are optimistic Xavier Worthy will be able to play a limited role for the offense while wearing a small harness. Patrick Mahomes and HC Andy Reid say they are confident the Chiefs can continue to be successful on deep passes with Tyquan Thornton running routes alongside Worthy. By Week 7, Mahomes' dropbacks could feature him having a combination of quality options -- such as Travis Kelce, Thornton, Worthy, Rashee Rice and Hollywood Brown.

Fantasy Impact:

Slowly the Chiefs offense is starting to get healthy and back to what everyone envisioned at the start of the season. Worthy has a chance to play in Week 4 but the team is already saying he'll be limited, so fantasy owners will want to monitor just how much Worthy will play or maybe in what situations.

The Athletic: Chiefs WR Rashee Rice could break out

The Athletic

Jul 15 · 11:57 AM EDT

He saw just four games his sophomore season before tearing up his knee chasing down a defender after a Patrick Mahomes interception. But the good news amid the bad news: Rashee Rice did not tear his ACL but his LCL, which meant a shorter recovery time. Thus, the wideout was back on the field this spring for the Chiefs, and coach Andy Reid said he expects him to be full-go for the start of training camp. Rice’s return will be crucial for an offense looking to rediscover its explosiveness. — Zak Keefer

Fantasy Impact:

Keefer went on to say Rice had 938 receiving yards as a rookie in 2023 and was building off that early in Year 2. Kansas City has been waiting for a WR1 to step into the role vacated by Tyreek Hill in 2022. He’s not Hill, but Rice might be this team’s best bet. He has future Pro Bowler written all over him, according to Keefer. Rice was good his first four games and seemed on his way to a bust-out year last season. Rice seems to be a late third round target in 12-team leagues so far this summer.

Chiefs QB Patrick Mahomes 'in a better place ankle-wise'

Pro Football Talk

Dec 23, 2024 · 6:41 PM EST

“I think I’ll be in a better place ankle-wise,” Patrick Mahomes said, via Adam Teicher of ESPN.com. “Obviously the body’s going to be sore just with a short week and everything like that, but I think the ankle should be in a better place. We’ll see in practice, but as far as how I felt after this game compared to the one before, I’m definitely in a lot better place.”

Fantasy Impact:

The short week could be a factor but it's hard to doubt Mahomes as this point. He bounced back rather nicely in Week 17, throwing for a TD and then running for another. The Chiefs play on Christmas Day against the Steelers.
