Jordan Addison vs Rashee Rice: Who Should You Start?
The numbers tell a clear story here. Rashee Rice put up 15.5 fantasy points per game for the Kansas City Chiefs in 2025, while Jordan Addison managed 8.1 across 14 games with the Minnesota Vikings. A 7.4-point weekly edge is substantial at the wide receiver position.
That 7.4-point weekly advantage for Rashee Rice is meaningful but not automatic. Fantasy football is a week-to-week sport, and the answer to "who should I start" often changes based on opponent, recent form, and game environment. Season averages set the baseline; weekly context makes the call.
Both are workload receivers with similar target shares. Jordan Addison turned 79 targets into 610 yards and 3 touchdowns, while Rashee Rice converted 78 looks into 571 yards and 5 scores. When target volume is this close, game script and defensive matchup typically decide the weekly winner.
Both share a Week 6 bye, which matters for roster construction. If you are stacking wide receivers this deep on your bench, plan your replacement wide receiver early.
