Chargers rookie receiver received high snap counts in preseason debut.
USC product Brenden Rice had the most snap counts out of any receiver in the Los Angeles Chargers preseason opener versus the Seattle Seahawks.Although the Chargers fell short 16-3 to Seattle, the high snap count for Rice pointed to a secure spot on the roster for the former Trojan.
There is an ongoing competition for the No. 4 spot of the wide receiver group. Second-year wideout Quentin Johnston has struggled as of late with dropped passes and consistency. Los Angeles selected the rookie in the seventh round of the 2024 NFL Draft, 225th overall. The late pickup was a surprise to many, including Rice's father 49ers Hall of Famer Jerry Rice.. "The first words he said was, 'Time to go to work.' He said, 'I will be with you every step of the way.' He said, 'Now, I'm going to be involved within all of your workouts from now on, and we have a lot of people to prove wrong, a lot of teams that go ahead.
Rice has been a solid player throughout training camp and has caught the eye of Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh. The rookie was listed as one of the players to watch ahead of the preseason game with the Seahawks.
