The Chiefs entered 2023 hoping one of several young receivers on their roster would step up. Only one did. That was Rice, who simply continued to make plays when given the chance and saw his role steadily expand. Over the final six games, the then-rookie caught 43 passes for 518 yards and three TDs, becoming the clear go-to target on the outside. For the season, he finished with a 79-938-7 line, leading the club in touchdowns and finishing second to Travis Kelce in receptions and yards.
Even with the offseason additions, Rice looks set to be the No. 1 receiver in Kansas City. Unfortunately, the second-year pro has introduced an element of uncertainty into the equation as he is facing felony charges stemming from a multi-vehicle crash. No discipline has been announced by the NFL to date, but the team is reportedly expecting a multi-game suspension that will take Rice off the field to open the season. Once the duration is known, his value will crystallize further. For now, he should be viewed as a strong WR3 and possible top-25 fantasy wideout.

Chiefs-Titans working on trade for DeAndre Hopkins Titans will receive a conditional fourth-round pick By: Mike Krueger | Wed Oct 23, 6:55 am
| | The Titans and Chiefs are working to finalize a trade that would send wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins to Kansas City, league sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
The Titans would receive a conditional fourth-round pick in a trade that is expected to be completed Wednesday, sources said. (ESPN)
FFToday's Take: The Chiefs are in dire need of a receiver after losing Marquise Brown (shoulder), Rashee Rice (knee) and JuJu Smith-Schuster (hamstring) this season. Hopkins will try and get up to speed quickly and likely be on the field this weekend in a limited role against the Raiders. Once he gets up to speed, he'll likely be a weekly Flex option in most 12-team fantasy leagues.
