Who Should I Start? Rashee Rice or Keon Coleman

Wednesday, June 4, 2:46 PM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice (knee) was a full participant in Wednesday's OTA practice session, according to team reporter Sam McDowell. The 25-year-old is recovering from a major knee injury that limited him to just four games a season ago, so his status early in the offseason is promising. In Rice's three fully healthy games last year, he racked up 24 receptions for 288 yards and two touchdowns. He was an early contender for the WR1 overall in PPR formats, so he could be one of this year's best values in fantasy football drafts. That said, there are still legal troubles following him for a handful of off-the-field incidents last offseason, so fantasy managers should monitor that situation moving forward. If he plays a full 16- or 17-game season in 2025, a WR1 finish is in the range of outcomes.

Much like his rookie season last year, Buffalo Bills second-year wide receiver Keon Coleman showed inconsistency in mandatory minicamp practice this week, according to The Athletic's Joe Buscaglia. Coleman has shown the ability to make big plays occasionally, but then he'll have regrettable reps that question his ability to be a consistent playmaker for the Bills. The 22-year-old's on-ball concerns and his intermediate to deep separation skills are things that he will have to improve on if he wants to take the next step in 2025. He had only 29 catches for 556 yards and four touchdowns in 13 regular-season games in 2024 but also dealt with a chipped bone in his wrist that affected his production down the stretch. The former second-rounder could be more effective in a bigger role this year, but the addition of Joshua Palmer could also be hindrance.
