I wondered the same about Brendan Rice as well after reading an article about how pissed Jerry Rice was that his son dropped so far. Sounds like he’s going to be unofficial coach for the chargers. That can’t be bad for them.
With those bloodlines, maybe he will be this year’s Puka Nacua [Reply]

God, that would be a nice problem to have. A more athletic version of Nacua with JR’s genetics, not to mention Jerry’s treasure trove of knowledge about every facet of pass catching, route running, how to read/beat defenders . . . [Reply]

It's the fit, he's an X receiver that can run all of the underneath possession stuff so when you mix him with Kelce and the outside speed it means odds are he should have an easy time finding space. [Reply]

He WAS an X receiver. Like 5 years ago. Dude is washed as washed can be.
That underneath/big slot role could be filled in a lot of ways, including by a TE. Don't need to bring in a name of a guy who used to be good a long time ago just to make someone feel better. [Reply]

Ahhh you said RBs I think in your post, but you meant WRs... ummm yeah I think we'll utilize 7 WRs over the course of the season, I'm expecting Rice will be out half the season which should give us some time to learn what we've got in Brown & Worthy, as well as get Watson, Sky, and Toney some attempts.
