WR Rashee Rice Ready to Roll

Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice is expected to be a full participant once training camp begins.

Coach Andy Reid is expecting wide receiver Rashee Rice to be a full participant once training camp opens up.  Rice suffered a torn ACL in Week 4 last season.  He dominated at the beginning of the season having 24 catches for 288 yards and 2 touchdowns.  He was on pace to have a breakout sophomore season which would have ended up with 102 catches for 1,224 yards and 8 touchdowns.  This would have had Rice finish as wide receiver 9.  Unfortunately, he attempted to make a tackle on an incepted pass and Patrick Mahomes hit Rice in the knee causing the injury.

 

Rashee Rice is a high-ceiling mid-round pick, anywhere from the early 3rd round to 4th.   His upside makes him a potential league-winner, but the legal situation adds uncertainty that may depress his ADP.  For now, though it sounds like he should be healthy to begin the season.
