From the article

It's fair to wipe Rice's season debut (2 catches, 19 yards, 1 touchdown) from our memory banks. The Chiefs are clearly skewing run-heavy to ease Patrick Mahomes II back, and they finally have a runner worth leaning on. Thus, Rice was barely used in the opener, but there's little reason to worry. He remains unquestionably the top weapon here, with 120 catches and 1,377 yards over his last 18 games.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalProjection

Rice's low Week One usage is scheme-driven; he remains the clear top weapon.

Rice's season debut of 2 catches, 19 yards, and 1 touchdown should be wiped from memory; the Chiefs are skewing run-heavy to ease Patrick Mahomes II back, so Rice was barely used in the opener. He remains unquestionably the top weapon with 120 catches and 1,377 yards over his last 18 games, and any successful Mahomes day will almost surely go through him.
