In 2025, Rice was spammed with targets. His 31.9% first read target share led to 9.6 targets and the third-most expected fantasy points per game (18.4) among wide receivers. But after having a lackluster rushing attack for the better part of the last decade, the Chiefs made a splash this offseason, signing one of the NFL's premier runners in Kenneth Walker III.

Rice's target share halved with Walker's arrival; usage metrics are alarming.

Rice's target share has collapsed after Kenneth Walker III's arrival. In 2025, Rice had a 31.9% first read target share and 9.6 targets per game with 18.4 expected fantasy points per game. Through two games with Walker, Rice has a 13.7% first read target share, averaging just 3.5 targets per game and 11.1 fantasy points per game. He ranks 86th among receivers in targets per route run (0.11) and 76th in expected fantasy points per game (5.6), with 18.4% of his fantasy points coming from a meaningless 31-yard reception as time expired in Week 2. Panic Meter: 3/5.
