Rashi Rice still working his way back from a second surgery to his knee.
I think that's like maybe kind of like we forgot about that because, you know, he was in jail for 30 days.
But right before we learned that he was going to jail, we did learn that he had to have a cleanup procedure on that knee.
And then I think since then I haven't just like noticed that he's just like back to himself.
The Chiefs reporter Nate Taylor believes that even getting 900 yards for Rashi Rice is asking too much after watching him.
And I just think that that role that he's had, that little spread shotgun, get the ball out quickly, yards after the catch role, one, if he's not up to speed, there's no reason to be doing that.
Number two, I don't think they're gonna be doing that because Patrick Mahomes is gonna be playing in a new offense because Kenneth Walker's gonna be doing a whole lot more under center.
Plus, you have all the weirdness with Rashi Rice off the field.
So I never thought he was like some elite player.
I think that he might be the worst real life wide receiver that gets drafted anywhere in this range.
Not good against man coverage, really explosive, in zone in, in like the scramble drill.
I'm not sure if we're gonna get that style of offense as much this year.
