It's next level. Not next level college - it's Tee Higgins style next level NFL body control. Few WRs and even fewer CBs can do what he's able to do in that clip.

And we still aren't using it. I have my theories on that (mostly that Mahomes has mind-****ed himself into not making his way through his reads at all) but I think they'll get sorted out in time.

Right now Rice is being used mostly on quick hitters and underneath routes t hat allow him to run after the catch. If we start to also give him a few shot plays/gm (and actually throw them) I think he'll be able to start showing off this sort of body control to go next level.

We're still only about halfway to what Rice can do and how we can use him in the offense.

Great point here.
