As much as I wish he was on the field doing great things for the Chiefs this wall-to-wall coverage is getting silly. He's out for a month, maybe more, and if he comes back he might be welcomed back with a suspension to serve for his off-field actions, nobody knows. At this point, as awesome as he is as a player, he's becoming a distraction this team doesn't need.

The Chiefs need to plan for him to be out for the rest of the season and move on focusing on the next man up.

Has there been a similar situation?

This is just strange

This doesn't remind you of the Mahomes knee injury?

As soon as Rashee gets back on the practice field this place is going nuts.

The article posted earlier aligns with my original thought.

Rashee can serve a suspension while on IR bc it’s all about pay. If he’s out for the season get the shit over with.

A Browns player did this last year

If Rashee Rice is out for 3-4 weeks, that's INSANE... must be those young, flexible ligaments... that looked so bad.

I do think that JuJu will pop off the next couple games.

Let's tromp the Saints... then rest at 5-0.

To do that he most likely needs to resolve the criminal charges. That may have more to do with the prosecutor and what he is willing to take. I mean he is facing 8 felonies, he may be lucky not to do a little jail time.

FTFY

So much for MRI being so accurate on ACL. Almost like it's what I said where if there are multiple that accuracy goes down.

I thought this was a sketch.

Exactly the case. Or focus on the "Next man in" if they're going to make a trade.

I really think it's more of a distraction to us, I think the players are used to this kind of stuff.

IMO, Rice's knee is ****ed up, and no way am I counting on him to return this season.

I'm no orthopedist, but I did stay in a Holiday Inn Express after each of my ten orthopedic surgeries (4 x knees, 4 x hips, 2 x shoulders, almost all due to skiing). I seriously doubt that a guy with a torn ACL is going to be walking around in a just sleeve, but without a brace to keep his knee stable.

Whatever they find wrong, or not wrong with Rice's knee, I hope it's announced in a new thread. This one has AIDS.
