- Field Yates and Daniel Dopp expect a 150-yard, one-touchdown monster outing based on usage and matchup.
Start Rasheed Rice With Minshew
- Start Rasheed Rice despite the Gardner Minshew quarterback change because of his elite target volume since week seven.
- Trust Minshew to find his top wide receiver; Rice has consistently cleared the proposed points threshold.
