Rashee Rice will be back this week (hamstring). He opened the week with limited practices on Wednesday and Thursday. He had a full practice on Friday. Rice doesn't carry an injury designation into this week. In Weeks 1-3, Rice was the WR23 in fantasy points per game. He had a 16.3% target share with 2.35 YPRR, four red zone targets, zero deep targets, and a 20.3% first-read share. Rice will have a long day this week. Across their last five games, Denver has allowed the 14th-fewest yards per target and the sixth-fewest fantasy points per opportunity to perimeter wide receivers. They will also get Patrick Surtain back. If you're forced to start Rice, I get it, but temper your expectations this week.
