Finds work with New Orleans
The Saints claimed Rice off waivers Wednesday.
ANALYSIS
Rice was waived by the Titans on Tuesday, and it didn't take him long to land in a new spot. New Orleans may have signed Rice as insurance behind Pete Werner, who missed Week 13 with an oblique injury, though Werner returned to practice in a limited fashion Wednesday. Rice played in 12 games for Tennessee before being let go, and he totaled 26 tackles (14 solo) over 82 defensive snaps.

2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Titans made a significant investment in Rice when they selected him in the third round of the 2021 NFL Draft. He took a solid step forward in his second season as a pro, tallying 66 tackles and one pass defended. With David Long moving on to Miami this offseason, Rice should move into a full-time role in the Titans' linebacker corps and be in line to rack up a ton of tackles while playing alongside offseason acquisition Azeez Al-Shaair.
