Andy Reid and the Chiefs could make a blockbuster trade to replace Rashee Rice

Andy Reid and the Kansas City Chiefs are favorites for their third win in a row Super Bowl. But even with a 4-0 record, injuries could pose a major problem in the future.

So far, the Chiefs have already lost three star offensive players in the first month of the season: Hollywood BrownIsiah Pacheco and Rashee Rice. While there are solid names like Xavier Worthy and JuJu Smith-Schuster on the depth chart, that may not be enough.

In this scenario Patrick Mahomes needs help to make another championship run. That's why with this NFL With the trade deadline approaching, Brett Veach could shock the league.

Who will replace Rashee Rice on the Chiefs?

At the moment, Xavier Worthy is the Chiefs' No. 1 wide receiver, followed by JuJu. Still, according to a report from Adam Schefter, a trade for someone like Davante Adams or DeAndre Hopkins is not off the radar.

“As the Chiefs prepare for Rashee Rice to be out for an extended period of time, Kansas City intends to make another move at wide receiver, just as it has in each of the last two years, league sources told ESPN. Once the Chiefs have clarity on Rice's injury, they can act. The Chiefs will explore all options to determine if they can complete another trade for a wide receiver.”

Will the Chiefs make a trade for Davante Adams?

Despite being the biggest name available, Davante Adams wants a new contract in any deal that will pay him $30 million per year. That's why Schefter believes the target is not him.

“The Chiefs explored signing DeAndre Hopkins in the 2023 offseason before he agreed to a two-year, $26 million contract with the Titans. With Hopkins now in the final year of his contract, the Titans could be enticed to consider offers for their veteran wide receiver.”
