Chiefs WR Rashee Rice's 2024 season "is expected to be over" with the right knee injury suffered in Week 4, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. Rice will have his LCL repaired on Tuesday, "but there is a chance that’s the only ligament to be repaired," per Rapoport. The expectation is that Rice's ACL is intact.

Chiefs WR Rashee Rice will undergo arthroscopic surgery early next week to get a better look at the damage to his right knee, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "As of now, it appears there is only a small chance that the electric second-year player can possibly return this season," Rapoport writes. Next week's procedure could reveal anything from a fully torn ACL and other ligament damage to damage to the PCL and/or LCL but no ACL injury. Depending on the findings, Rice's timeline for return could be anywhere from 4-6 weeks to 9 months. "The chances of testing showing the 4-6 week version appear slim, but not zero," Rapoport adds. Rice owners should continue holding him for now. Hopefully we get a concrete update on his status before waivers run next week.
