That play was sunk the moment Rice lined up incorrectly. It was designed as a fake screen to Toney hoping to draw the LB to let Rice sneak in behind him between the safeties. The problem is that Rice doesn't seem to run a great route (or at least not where Mahomes thought he would be). I don't think there was enough time to fake the screen, fake it to Rice and then go back to Toney. If anything if Mahomes waits a split second more Watson was gets open in the middle.
