The Kansas City Chiefs made a concerted effort to revamp their depleted wide receiver corps during the 2024 offseason, and Patrick Mahomes is already starting to settle in with his new pass-catchers at training camp.
During Kansas City’s practice session on Friday, Mahomes connected with second-year wideout Rashee Rice in the corner of the endzone for a touchdown after scrambling out of the pocket to deliver a perfectly placed pass to the SMU product.
Check out the impressive connection between Mahomes and Rice, which captivated the audience in attendance during the Chiefs’ drills at Missouri Western State University in St. Joseph:

Though Rice will have to fight with Xavier Worthy, Marquise “Hollywood” Brown, Kadarius Toney, and Skyy Morre for targets during Kansas City’s 2024 campaign, plays like this will help cement his role as the Chiefs’ top receiver.
Expect to see more plays like this from Rice and Mahomes when the regular season kicks off in September.
