Rashee Rice vs. Denver: Primed for High Target Volume

Rashee Rice enters the season healthy and locked into his starting role alongside Xavier Worthy and Travis Kelce. While off-field concerns and a knee cleanup were resolved earlier this summer, fantasy managers should monitor Patrick Mahomes, who is questionable with a knee injury. Regardless, Rice remains Kansas City's primary underneath weapon.

Started in roughly 98% of leagues, fantasy managers should feel confident slotting him into their lineups across all formats. Our weekly projection lands at 14.8 fantasy points, forecasting about eight targets, five receptions, and 62 yards. Even in a tight divisional matchup against Denver, his steady target share secures a high PPR floor.

Kyle Pitts Sr. at Pittsburgh: Prime Target in Road Opener

Entering the season completely healthy after signing a major contract extension, Pitts is locked in as Atlanta's top tight end catching passes from Tua Tagovailoa. He displayed his downfield chemistry with Tagovailoa during the preseason and remains an integral fixture in the Falcons' passing attack alongside Drake London heading into a physical road test in Pittsburgh.

With an 87% start rate across fantasy leagues, Pitts remains an every-week fixture in starting lineups. Our projections anticipate a steady outing of four receptions for roughly 42 yards and 10.6 fantasy points. While the matchup features a modest 41.5-point projected total, Pitts' target volume provides a secure floor with distinct red-zone touchdown upside.
