Rice could see a bigger role during training camp while Kadarius Toney (knee) is sidelined, Nate Taylor of The Athletic reports.
Rice was picked 55th overall in the 2023 NFL Draft, after Kansas City traded up nine spots to grab him. In his last season at SMU, the physical wideout racked up 96 receptions for 1,355 yards and 10 touchdowns. Toney has an uncertain recovery timeline from his partially torn meniscus, which paves the way for other options like Rice to try and establish some chemistry with Patrick Mahomes.
