Who Should I Start? Jerry Jeudy or Rashee Rice

Cleveland Browns wide receiver Jerry Jeudy caught five of his eight targets for 79 yards in a 29-24 win over the Baltimore Ravens in Week 8. Jeudy turned in his best game of the season in the upset win of the Ravens, topping his previous season-high in receiving by six yards. The entire Cleveland passing attack benefitted greatly by having Jameis Winston and not Deshaun Watson under center as they set season-highs in points scored and passing yards in the win over their AFC North rivals. Jeudy will be on the map as a flex option heading into Week 9 against the Los Angeles Chargers.

After having surgery to fix his right LCL on Tuesday, Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice (knee) is expected to be out for four months, according to multiple sources. It was a best-case scenario for Rice, who will miss the rest of the 2024 season, but the good news is he's expected to make a full recovery. In addition to his knee, Rice also had a hamstring tendon repaired on Tuesday. Barring any setbacks for the 24-year-old during his rehab, he should be ready to go for the start of the 2025 season next fall. With receiver Marquise Brown (shoulder) already out for the year and running back Isiah Pacheco (leg) on Injured Reserve, the Chiefs have lost their best playmakers outside of quarterback Patrick Mahomes and tight end Travis Kelce. Fantasy managers in single-year leagues can obviously drop Rice at this time and look for a replacement.
