Rashee Rice has just etched his name in the elite rookie wide receiver club, landing his seventh receiving touchdown of the season. In the company of legends like Tyreek Hill and Stephone Paige, Rice is rewriting the Chiefs’ history books. The Chief’s official page hit up ‘X,’ unleashing a major achievement on the gridiron.

The script read, “WR Rashee Rice catches a 4-yard TD pass from RB Jerick McKinnon. That gives Rice 7 receiving TDs on the season, setting a new franchise record for TD receptions by a rookie. He breaks a tie with Fred Arbanas, Stephone Paige, Tyreek Hill and Mecole Hardman (6).

This scoring spectacle took place toward the end of the first quarter, sparked by a substantial gain from Clyde Edwards-Helaire on a screen that propelled the Chiefs into the red zone. Positioned near the goal line, McKinnon took a direct snap from center Creed Humphrey. He further executed a masterful fake run to the left and deftly flipped the ball to Rice. In return, Rice expertly navigated against the grain back to the right.
