Video: Week 2 Fantasy Football Wide Receiver Rankings and Tiers: Jordan Addison bounce-back BOOM?!
average route depth for Rasheed Rice was 8.1 in week one... Last year, 5.3, 2024, 4.4, 4 2023 5.9 those are all bottom 10 numbers in the league... Kenneth Walker is the engine of this offense maybe they were easing Rashid Rice in he did again have to rehab the knee injury... Wide receiver 21, Rasheed Rice... he's my wide receiver 21 man... honestly that feels a bit high

STACKED’s take

Negative signalRole

Route depth spike (8.1 yards) signals reduced short-area role; ranking feels too high.

Ranked WR21 for Week 2 against the Colts on Sunday Night Football, but concerning role changes emerged in Week 1. Average route depth was 8.1 yards—a significant departure from historical norms (5.3 in 2024, 4.4 in 2023, 5.9 in 2022)—placing him among bottom-10 league performers in this metric. This suggests a different role than expected, possibly due to easing him back from knee injury rehab. Kenneth Walker functioning as the offensive engine may have limited Rice's typical short-area opportunities. Ian Hartitz notes the WR21 ranking 'feels a bit high' given the passing game concerns and role uncertainty moving forward.
