Chiefs fan here. I feel bad for Rice owners because he has obvious talent but you can not start him with confidence due to how the Chiefs distribute the ball.

Now, maybe after last night’s debacle, a concerted effort is put forth to get the ball in Rice’s hands more often going forward but Andy Reid is stubborn and will stick to what HE feels works or should work in a given situation.

Without a clear, inarguable, Tyreek-type WR1 playmaker on the perimeter, you simply cannot trust any Chiefs pass catcher in your lineup other than Kelce. Still, I’d recommend keeping Rice stashed for another week or two to monitor usage or in case of injuries around him before dropping. But do not start him unless your roster is absolutely devoid of better options.
