Who Should I Start? Rashee Rice or Xavier Worthy

Tuesday, November 11, 4:36 PM

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice made his season debut in Week 7 against the Raiders and has immediately been one of the best fantasy wide receivers in the league. Rice has totaled 20 receptions on 26 targets for 215 yards and three touchdowns while adding four carries for 18 yards and another touchdown on the ground. The 25-year-old is averaging 22.4 PPR points per game, ranking as the WR5 in that span. Rice is one of just five wideouts to average over 20 PPR points per game on the season and should be ready to crush after the bye week as Patrick Mahomes' clear No. 1 target. Head coach Andy Reid has even given him carries near the goal line this season as the Chiefs work through their running back problems. With his high target volume and usage near the end zone, Rice is locked and loaded as a top-five fantasy receiver for the rest of the season.

Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Xavier Worthy (ankle) has been removed from the injury report ahead of the Week 11 matchup against the Denver Broncos. Worthy tweaked his ankle during Thursday's practice session. However, Worthy practiced in full on Friday and won't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game. Worthy has taken a backseat in the offense since Rashee Rice returned in Week 7. He has seen 14 targets over the last two games, hauling in eight passes for 76 yards. Worthy still has enough upside to warrant plugging in as a WR3 for this weekend.
