Rashee Rice’s six-game suspension forces Kansas City into a WR-by-committee start. JuJu Smith-Schuster and Xavier Worthy join Travis Kelce and Isaiah Pacheco as Week 1 catalysts, while Noah Gray and Jason Brownlee are live shots for targets behind the star trio. Kingsley Suamataia and Creed Humphrey anchor the line as Mahomes adapts to a reshaped receiver group, with Rice returning in Week 7 to reclaim a key role.
