Rashee Rice manages a touchdown in Week 1

With Patrick Mahomes struggling with his accuracy, Rashee Rice was targeted just twice in Week 1, catching both for 19 yards and a score.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice scored a touchdown in Week 1 against the Denver Broncos. Rice caught two passes for a total of 19 yards, contributing fantasy value to owners despite the challenging start to the season. Patrick Mahomes, the quarterback, appeared rusty, particularly with long throws. Despite the tough opening game, Rice is expected to become Mahomes' primary target on the outside, potentially delivering considerable value for fantasy teams.

In the short term, Rice may be considered a WR3, but his long-term potential could elevate him to a WR2 spot.
