Rashee Rice News

Rashee Rice Removed From Injury Report, Should Continue Being Heavily Targeted At Atlanta

Friday, November 13, 12:24 PM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice led the team in targets and finished second on the team in receiving yards in last week's 35-12 win over the New York Jets. Since returning from injury, Rice has been the featured target for quarterback Patrick Mahomes and that should continue to be the case despite dealing with a knee issue. Rice was listed on the team's injury report with a knee injury this week but it did not prevent him from logging full practices all week. After a third full practice on Friday, he does not have an injury designation ahead of the weekend. Rice should be fully prepared to take on the Atlanta Falcons on the road this Sunday. The Falcons defense has been a tough matchup for wide receivers and soft on running backs, making them more of a run funnel this season. The loss of safety Jessie Bates should open things up in the Atlanta secondary, but the best way to attack the defense will likely still be on the ground. Given the matchup and recent addition of Josh Downs at the trade deadline, Rice could be in for a lesser performance this Sunday. Rice is ranked WR16 in our RotoBaller Week 10 PPR rankings, making him a strong WR2 option this week, but he may have limited upside.

Tre Tucker News

Tre Tucker a Risky Flex Option At Best for Week 10

Friday, November 13, 1:13 PM

Las Vegas Raiders wide receiver Tre Tucker has been a risky fantasy asset all season, and that won't change in Week 10 against a formidable Seattle Seahawks defense. The 25-year-old has cooled off considerably since a surge over Weeks 6 and 7 when he totaled 200 yards and three touchdowns, hauling in four catches for 55 yards over Weeks 8 and 9. Tucker will now go up against a Seahawks defense that allows just 155.1 passing yards per game and hasn't let a receiver score in two of the last three weeks. Tucker's target share could also change now that Fernando Mendoza is under center, though he did catch a 16-yard pass from the rookie in Week 5 against the New England Patriots. Tucker has been boom-or-bust all season, and that won't change in Week 10. He is a risky flex option at best, even if Mendoza targets him a lot.
