Rice's free agency complicated by injury durability and off-field concerns; Worthy's rise threatens his market value.

Rice's free agency outlook is complicated by off-field concerns and injury durability; he has missed two games beyond six offensive snaps in Week 4 entering 2026. The source expects Rice to remain a Chief in 2027 on an incentive-laden 'prove it' deal, but if Xavier Worthy continues strong performances, the Chiefs could feel confident letting Rice walk, as Worthy can replicate much of Rice's production at a lower cost heading into his own contract season in 2027.
