The Kansas City Chiefs have not lost any steam after losing star wideout Rashee Rice to a devastating leg injury.

The injury was confirmed to be an injury to the lateral collateral ligament (LCL) of the knee. Rice originally suffered the injury in Week 4 against the Los Angeles Chargers.

The Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver underwent lateral collateral ligament (LCL) surgery on his right knee last month. He also had a hamstring procedure done.

In the meantime, the Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver has been going through rehab following his surgery.

Rashee Rice was spotted rehabbing his knee injury with Marquise Brown.

Marquise Brown had quite the interesting comments about Rice, as he could be seen in a rehab pool.

 

“Dang how you shake back that quick gang,” Brown stated in amazement of Rice being as far along as he is during this process.

The severity of his surgery indicated that Rashee Rice would “likely” be out for the 2024 season.

In the meantime, the Chiefs have gone out and traded the Tennessee Titans a 2025 conditional fifth-round draft pick for wide receiver DeAndre Hopkins.

Rashee Rice Was Just Getting Started Before His Season Was Cut Short

Rashee Rice had surgery on his injured right knee, and his timeline to return is expected to be around 10 to 12 months.

The Chiefs receiver had 288 receiving yards and 24 receptions through three games before he went down.

It really sucked because he appeared to be the new favorite target of Patrick Mahomes, and he got robbed of his year following a fluke of a play where his own quarterback would take him out.
