From the episode

They are not hyper targeting Rasheed Rice in those short area stuff... Kenneth Walker too, who, as I mentioned, is the guy that really is the change force for Rasheed Rice. Like Walker getting 11 targets of five or fewer air yards.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalUsage

Kenneth Walker's short-area targets have displaced Rice from his 2024 role.

Rasheed Rice is not receiving the hyper-targeting in short-area routes that defined his 2024 role. Kenneth Walker is now the primary target in that area, with Walker getting 11 targets of five or fewer air yards, which has significantly reduced Rice's volume. Matt Harmon suggests the Chiefs have "no reason to change things up right now" from their previous approach, indicating Rice's role has diminished with Mahomes' return to form.
