Rashee Rice hit with six-game suspension Eligible to return Week 7 against the Raiders By: Mike Krueger | Aug 27 2025, 12:06 pm
#Chiefs WR Rashee Rice is accepting and will serve a six-game suspension to start the 2025 regular season, per sources.
The NFL and NFLPA are working to finalize the settlement, which will end Rice’s disciplinary limbo and make him eligible to return Week 7 vs. Las Vegas. (Adam Schefter on X)
FFToday's Take:Rice's suspension has been in limbo this entire off-season and now we have some closure. Six games is a big number and should significantly affect his fantasy currently hovering around WR30 in half-PPR leagues next to Jaylen Waddle, Calvin Ridley and Travis Hunter. I would avoid him in most redraft leagues in Rounds 5/6 but drafting Rice in deeper leagues (18 spots) that can place suspended players on IR is more palatable.
