Rashee Rice vs Tory Horton: Who Should You Start?
There is a real production gap between these two wide receivers. Rashee Rice (Kansas City Chiefs) averaged 15.5 PPG over 8 games in 2025, outscoring Tory Horton (Seattle Seahawks, 7.3 PPG) by 8.2 points per week. That separation would need a significant matchup swing to overcome.
That 8.2-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.
Target volume is the story here. Rashee Rice saw 78 targets in 2025, while Tory Horton drew 22. That workload gap usually translates into a higher weekly floor for Rashee Rice, even in weeks where Tory Horton posts the bigger ceiling game. Consistency-minded managers lean toward target share; boom-bust managers chase the upside.
One scheduling note: Rashee Rice is off Week 6 and Tory Horton Week 10. If these two are on your roster, you will need a fill-in wide receiver for both weeks. DraftCall flags bye conflicts so you can plan ahead rather than panic on waivers.
