Rashee Rice News
Friday, April 3, 3:45 PM
The NFL concluded on Friday that Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice "has not engaged in conduct that violates the personal-conduct policy," according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. The investigation into accusations from his former girlfriend is now closed, and there will be no discipline from the league at this time. "Mr. Rice wants to thank the NFL for their thorough investigation, and looks forward to the start of the 2026-27 NFL season," Rice's attorney, Sean Lindsey, said in a statement. The 25-year-old Rice is no stranger to bad off-the-field publicity, as he was suspended for the first six games in 2025 due to a high-speed hit-and-run incident in Dallas. The former second-rounder in 2023 out of SMU caught 53 of his 78 targets for 571 yards and five touchdowns in his eight games played in 2025 before suffering a concussion in Week 15 and missing the final two games. The Chiefs can't be happy with Rice's choices off the field, but with no discipline affecting his fantasy value in 2026, he should have a pretty high ceiling as KC's WR1. Rice had a 79-102-7 line in 16 games in his rookie campaign, but he's played only 12 games since due to injuries and suspension.

Ashton Jeanty News
Wednesday, April 1, 8:30 AM
Las Vegas Raiders running back Ashton Jeanty had an up-and-down rookie season in 2025, ultimately finishing as the overall RB11 in PPR leagues. His big games were absolutely electric, but he also had some dud performances, finishing with single-digit fantasy points on seven different occasions. Jeanty will look for more consistency in a new-look offense next year. For starters, the game script should improve under projected No. 1 overall pick Fernando Mendoza. He should be able to drive the Raiders down the field and execute a solid passing attack, forcing defenses to place less emphasis on slowing down Jeanty. Additionally, Vegas revamped its offensive line this offseason, and the improvements should allow the Boise State product to find more gaps and have more time to make plays. All in all, an upgraded offense puts Jeanty in a prime position to succeed next year. He should offer more consistency and a higher floor, ranking as a mid-range RB1 in redraft leagues and a high-end RB1 in dynasty leagues.
