Should You Start or Sit Rice in Week 14?

The word “unstoppable” is probably a little strong, but Rice is the apple of Andy Reid’s eye, and that is about as advantageous a spot as we could ask for.

On top of the YAC skills that jump off the screen regularly and the clear slant of the playcalling to keep him engaged, we got a red zone wildcat snap last week. It didn’t work, but the idea of putting the ball in his hands and taking it out of Patrick Mahomes’ in a scoring situation tells you just how he is looked at in the building.

  • 109 receptions
  • 144 targets
  • 1,292 yards
  • 10 touchdowns

That’s what Rice has given you over his past 15 healthy regular-season games. His 37.5% target share on Thanksgiving was a season high, and he was the only Chief to see the ball thrown his way on third down multiple times.

Kansas City has no room for error, and they have no interest in taking usage off the plate of their WR1. If you told me that Rice was the top-scoring receiver in the sport moving forward, I wouldn’t blink, and you can make the case that he’ll be a first-round pick in August.

You rolled the dice on him in your draft, and you are being rewarded in a significant way for doing so.
