Rashee Rice Week 2 Outlook - Bengals at Chiefs

Rookie Xavier Worthy made headlines in Week 1, scoring two times on just three touches. But it was Rashee Rice who was the main cog in Kansas City's passing game against the Baltimore Ravens. Rice caught seven of nine targets from Patrick Mahomes, totaling 103 yards on the evening. He averaged 4.29 yards per route run, the highest mark among all receivers with at least five Week 1 grabs. Rice had a career-high 127 receiving yards in a Week 18 matchup with the Cincinnati Bengals last year. It would not surprise me to see Rashee Rice approach another triple-digit yardage outing again this time around. Rice has added appeal in PPR formats but is a solid Week 2 start regardless of format.
