Expert takes
“Favorite Stack: Burrow, Chase, Higgins, and Chase Brown are scattered throughout the articles this week, so this is where I want to lean into the stance instead of pretending those plays are independent. The fact that this game is Andy’s Almost Upset of the Week scares me more than it did a few days ago, but I still like the combo. Tee Higgins is due for a 20+ yard TD.”
Chris Cash· Sep 26, 2026“Chase Brown | $6,600 | @ PIT Brown has already handled 36 carries and eight receptions, including 23 touches last week against HOU (see, go get em, Jonathan Taylor ). PIT has allowed 256 rushing yards through two games at 4.3 yards per carry, so this matchup is juicy. Projection : 16.79 DK points at 10.35% pOwn, with a 27-point ceiling.”
Chris Cash· Sep 25, 2026“Chase Brown posted a 72% snap share, matching a true bell-cow workload — team-high 16 carries, including a designed goal-line touchdown, plus 5 catches on 6 targets.”

“On the other side of the ball, Burrow, Ja’Marr Chase , Higgins, and Chase Brown are all easy starts for the Ballers.”
Jordan Pullett· Sep 12, 2026“TB | DraftKings: $7,100/FanDuel: $7,500 Chase Brown is a workhorse running back in an elite offense. You can go with Jahmyr Gibbs here, too, but I prefer to save a bit of salary with Brown. The Bengals face the Buccaneers in a projected shootout, as highlighted by the game’s 50.5-point total.”
Frank Ammirante· Sep 12, 2026“Chase Brown ( CIN) : ADP 13.6 | RB 8 After a quiet rookie season, Brown has turned into a fantasy star.”
Mike Fanelli· Aug 31, 2026“2026 NFL Overs: Best Running Back Prop Bets David Montgomery — Over 825.5 Rushing Yards (-114) David Montgomery — Over 7.5 Rushing Touchdowns (-102) Chase Brown — Over 824.5 Rushing Yards (-110) Chase Brown — Over 5.5 Rushing Touchdowns (-125) 2026 NFL Longshot Running Back Prop Bets David Montgomery Touchdown Ladder 10+ Touchdowns (+195) 12+ Touchdowns (+350) 15+ Touchdowns (+800) Chase Brown Rushing Ladder 1000+ Rushing Yards (+210) 1250+ Rushing Yards (+550) 1500+ Rushing Yards (+1700) Fantasy football projections, like those done by Rich Hribar , can be a guide to help identify overvalued or undervalued players in the current betting markets.”
Curtis Hirsch· Aug 11, 2026“I don’t think any other running back is set up as well as Chase Brown is this season. The London, Ontario native is primed for his third straight top-12 season.”
Ellis Johnson· Aug 11, 2026“Chase Brown (RB – CIN) has real top-three overall ceiling that isn’t being discussed enough.”
FantasyPros Staff· Aug 10, 2026“Chase Brown is expected to play an important role in a highly functioning offense that could finish as one of the top-scoring teams in 2026. Brown is a pass-catching back who adds a vast amount of value due to his high reception rate, and dual threat in regards to touchdowns (11 total) . The running back for the Bengals caught 69 receptions for 437 yards.”
Steve Krebs· Aug 8, 2026
“Rice has clearly lost a step (or three) following a clean-up procedure on his right knee this offseason. The primary issue is that the Chiefs aren’t giving Rice as many manufactured looks around the line of scrimmage, preventing him from being the PPR scam he once was. With an ECR ranking of WR23, I’d frantically look to sell.”
Jim Moorman· Oct 6, 2026“Rice has a 21% target rate per route and 2.45 Y/RR on 58 routes against zone and a 21% target rate per route and 2.45 Y/RR on 42 routes against two-high coverage this season. Since 2024, he has had a 31% target rate per route and 3.26 Y/RR on 263 routes against zone, and a 30% target rate per route and 2.89 Y/RR on 187 routes against two-high coverage.”
Josh Shepardson· Oct 2, 2026“The issue is the unknown nature of what Rice is outside of the Chiefs franchise. Plus, the addition of Kenneth Walker and the resurgence of Travis Kelce have impacted his overall offensive involvement. Rebuilders should look to trade him due to long-term contract ambiguity and off-field risk.”

“Watching him live, Rice looks slow and stiff as he gets through his routes. Rice grabbed seven of his nine targets, but he should’ve had the other two as well. One of them was a drop that turned into a Miami interception.”
FantasyPros Staff· Sep 30, 2026“Rashee Rice was never as talented as his fantasy production would indicate. He racked up points over the last few years thanks to the Chiefs’ half-functional offense. Now that Kansas City has a real running game, Rice’s PPR scam days seem over.”
Ted Chmyz· Sep 23, 2026“Rashee Rice ‘s expected fantasy points is a woeful 5.6 per game.”
Kyle Borgognoni· Sep 21, 2026“Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy . Rice has since turned heads for the wrong reasons in training camp, looking slow. Meanwhile, Worthy sprained his shoulder in early August and returned to practice one week later .”
Josh Shepardson· Aug 28, 2026“Rashee Rice (WR – KC) Unfortunately, Rice has been in the news for all the wrong reasons this offseason. He served a 30-day sentence for violating his probation.”
Mike Fanelli· Aug 27, 2026“Second, he hasn’t been on the field enough over the last two seasons to justify his current average draft position (ADP), which hasn’t accounted for several factors. Currently ranked as the WR13 in expert consensus rankings (ECR), Rice is being treated as a low-end WR1.”
Evan Tarracciano· Aug 26, 2026“3.02: Rashee Rice (WR – KC) Probably the most uncomfortable pick you can make this year is Rashee Rice because you have no idea what you are going to get with him. But Rice’s upside is through the roof.”
Kurt Blakeway· Aug 25, 2026“Rice has commanded targets every time the Chiefs have given him a full-time role. Season Period Target Share 2023 Final 10 games with full-time snaps, including playoffs 24% 2024 Three complete games 31.5% 2025 Eight games 26.5%”
Javier Manzanera· Aug 23, 2026“In eight games last season, Rice recorded: 78 targets 53 receptions 571 receiving yards Five receiving TDs 20 rushing yards One rushing TD That comes out to 9.8 targets and 15.5 half-PPR points per game.”
Javier Manzanera· Aug 23, 2026“Round 2: Rashee Rice (WR – KC) Rashee Rice is certainly a bit risky with his off-field issues, including serving time in jail earlier this offseason, but when he was on the field last season, he had a staggering 37.”
