Rashee Rice caught 7-of-8 targets for 53 yards and a touchdown in the Chiefs’ Week 8 loss to the Broncos.

Rice was heavily involved early in the game, catching three passes for 26 yards and a score on the Chiefs’ opening drive. His role, however, took a backseat to running back targets in the second half. He caught three balls for 15 yards in the final two quarters combined. Rice briefly appeared to score the game-winning touchdown on the final play of the game, but refs had already blown the play dead because of a false start. Even without the second touchdown, fantasy managers can be confident in Rice as the team’s No. 1 receiver and a low-end WR2 for fantasy purposes going forward. He will sit just inside the WR1 ranks for his Week 9 date with the Jets.
