Who Should I Start? A.J. Brown or Rashee Rice

Wednesday, October 29, 10:09 AM

Pro Football Talk's Mike Florio reports that the Philadelphia Eagles are "shopping" wide receiver A.J. Brown, without officially putting him on the market. Brown has been the subject of trade rumors since early October, though every report to this point has insisted he is not being shopped and will remain in Philadelphia. After missing last week's game with a hamstring injury, Brown broke out in Week 7 with 121 yards and two touchdowns. The Eagles are on their bye this week, and it will be worth monitoring how the situation develops. Still, it seems unlikely that a team in the Eagles' position would move one of its top offensive weapons.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice caught all nine of his targets for 93 yards and a touchdown while adding two rushes for 12 yards in Monday night's 28-7 win over the Washington Commanders. Rice has picked up right where he left off last season as a target hog and dominant after-the-catch threat. The 25-year-old had seven receptions while playing roughly 40% of the offensive snaps in his first game back in Week 7 against the Raiders, but was back to a full-time role in this one, playing 85% of the snaps. Rice nearly had another touchdown on one of his two rushing attempts, coming just inches shy of his second career two-touchdown day. Rice is the clear-cut favorite target for Patrick Mahomes and is set to crush for fantasy managers for the rest of the season. He'll be an elite WR1 for Week 9's game of the week against the Buffalo Bills.
