Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice had surgery to repair his knee, and on Monday, head coach Andy Reid provided a clear expectation for Rice’s timeline to return.
The unknown status of Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice has weighed heavily on the team since Rice went down with a serious knee injury early in KC’s Week 4 win over the Los Angeles Chargers.
The reporting regarding Rice’s status fluctuated, but on October 7, information eventually settled on Rice’s injury: Rice would have surgery to repair his knee and his 2024 season would “likely” be over.
On October 8, the specifics of Rice’s surgery made the rounds, with reporting indicating that Rice had an LCL surgery in addition to a “repair done to Rice’s hamstring tendon.”
Reports indicated that Rice had no structural damage to his ACL or meniscus, providing him a clear path to full recovery despite the procedure still sidelining him for the rest of the year.
