Andy Reid Expects Rashee Rice to be Ready for Training Camp

Thursday, May 28, 12:51 PM

Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said he thinks wide receiver Rashee Rice (knee) will be "ready for camp as we go forward," per Around the NFL. Rice underwent knee surgery in mid-May and is also currently serving a 30-day jail sentence in Dallas County after violating the terms of his probation for his role in a high-speed car crash. The 26-year-old has had his fair share of both injury and off-field issues, as he's played in just 12 games over the past two seasons due to a knee injury, a league suspension, and a concussion. Rice was a productive player when on the field in 2025, recording 53 catches for 571 yards and five touchdowns on 78 targets across eight games. However, Rice's inability to stay on the field with any consistency makes his profile extremely risky for fantasy managers.

Cedric Tillman News

Cedric Tillman on the Trade Block?

Tuesday, May 5, 8:26 AM

The Cleveland Browns added rookie wide receivers KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston in the 2026 NFL draft, which makes The Athletic's Zac Jackson wonder if the team will eventually look to trade Cedric Tillman this summer. In addition to adding younger competition, the Browns are installing a new offense under head coach Todd Monken. Jackson lists Jerry Jeudy and Concepcion in the top tier of Browns wideouts, followed by Boston and Isaiah Bond in Tier 2. In Tier 3, he lists Tylan Wallace, Malachi Corley, Tillman, and Jamari Thrash. The Browns are hoping that Bond can take the next step with a full offseason, and Boston is a true outside receiver like Tillman. The Browns' major commitments are to Jeudy and the two rookies, which means, as of right now, Tillman might be the WR5 in Cleveland. The fact that Tillman doesn't contribute on special teams hurts his cause even more. The 26-year-old former third-rounder in 2023 out of Tennessee is entering the final season of his rookie deal and is coming off a season in which he caught just 21 passes for 270 yards and two touchdowns in 13 games. Tillman has failed to get going in his three NFL seasons, making him a cut candidate in dynasty leagues if he stays with the Browns.
