Rashee Rice is a major part of the Kansas City Chiefs offense, and the rookie wide receiver is quickly earning comparisons to Kansas City legend Tyreek Hill. Rice is the Chiefs' undisputed starting wide receiver, and he's the team's only reliable pass-catching option alongside Travis Kelce.
The SMU alum has bailed out Patrick Mahomes and Co. numerous times in the 2023 regular season, and the Chiefs' fans will be hoping that he can keep up the energy in the postseason.
From all indications, Rashee Rice will play tonight's game against the Buffalo Bills. The rookie pass catcher will have his work cut out against an experienced Bills defense, but at least on the plus side, he will be catching passes from a two-time Super Bowl MVP.
