Rashee Rice News

Rashee Rice Off Injury Report, Ready To Take On New York

Friday, November 6, 11:04 AM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice was limited in practice earlier this week with hamstring and knee injuries, but practiced fully the last two days and does not have a designation heading into the weekend. Rice stepped right back into the WR1 role in his first game back last week. Rice caught seven passes for 53 yards and a touchdown on eight targets in the loss to the Denver Broncos. Rice will likely continue that level of usage this week at home against the New York Jets. The Jets defense has been an average matchup for wide receivers, so Rice should have no issues acting as the top target in this offense. Quarterback Patrick Mahomes looks for Rice early and often in games, so that will likely be the case again this week. Rice is ranked WR17 in our RotoBaller Week 9 PPR rankings, making him a WR2 this weekend.

Saints Elevate Cedric Tillman Amid Teammate's Uncertainty

Saturday, October 17, 12:36 PM

The New Orleans Saints have elevated wide receiver Cedric Tillman from their practice squad to their active roster ahead of their Week 6 matchup against the New York Giants, per Mike Triplett of NewOrelans.Football. Tillman's elevation is particularly noteworthy given the uncertain health status of star Saints wideout Chris Olave (illness), who is officially listed as questionable to play in Week 6 due to an illness. Tillman has not recorded a catch in his one game for New Orleans this season, but he hauled in 21 receptions for 270 yards and two scores on 39 targets across 13 games with the Cleveland Browns in 2025. If Olave is inactive on Sunday, Tillman could join Saints wideouts Devaughn Vele and Bryce Lance as more intriguing wide receiver options for fantasy managers in Week 6.
