Chiefs WR Rashee Rice not anticipated to be placed on Commissioner's exempt list

Ian Rapoport

Aug 29 · 12:50 PM EDT

On a conference call, NFL’s Jeff Miller day they are closely monitoring the situation for Chiefs WR Rashee Rice, saying they’ll follow the legal developments.

My read: With his legal situation not yet settled, Rice remains eligible to begin play this season.

Related players: Hollywood Brown, Xavier Worthy, Justin Watson, Skyy Moore

Fantasy Impact:

If no changes come soon in Rice's criminal case, there's a very good chance he is eligible through the entirety of the 2024 season. He is currently ranked as a back-end WR2 here at 4for4.

Chiefs to waive WR Kadarius Toney

Pro Football Talk

Aug 27 · 2:08 PM EDT

Kadarius Toney’s time with the Chiefs has come to an end.

According to multiple reports, Kanas City is waiving Toney on Tuesday.

Fantasy Impact:

Reports say the Chiefs had been looking for a trade partner for Toney. Toney struggled in 2023 with multiple drops leading to interceptions, the story pointed out. The Chiefs will be fine at WR with youngsters like Rice, Worthy and Moore.

Chiefs HC Andy Reid noncommittal about Hollywood Brown's Week 1 availability

Adam Teicher

Aug 14 · 11:42 AM EDT

The Chiefs expect Hollywood Brown to return early in the regular season. Reid was noncommittal about Brown's chances of playing in the team's Sept. 5 opener against the Baltimore Ravens, saying only, "We'll see.''

Fantasy Impact:

The article continues, "The early beneficiary of Brown's absence in practice is Justin Watson, who is taking many of the snaps that would have gone to Brown."

If we knew that Brown were to miss multiple regular season games, Watson would be a little more interesting, but he should remain undrafted in most fantasy leagues. He could be worth a dart throw in *very* deep drafts or in large-field tournaments for differentiation.

Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown to miss 4-6 weeks

Jordan Schultz on X

Aug 13 · 4:20 PM EDT

Chiefs WR Hollywood Brown is expected to miss four to six weeks with the sternoclavicular injury he suffered, per multiple sources.

Related players: Rashee Rice, Xavier Worthy, Justin Watson

Fantasy Impact:

Doing the math, opening night is three weeks from this Thursday night. KC opens up at home vs. Baltimore and then Cincinnati. The timetable certainly puts the Baltimore game in doubt but it's possible if recovery goes well, Brown could return for Week 2. With Brown out, rookie Worthy seems to have the biggest chance to produce early on this season behind Rice.
