8-12 week recovery time

so he could be back for the postseason

[smithandrew051]

Imagine the Chiefs going 14-3 to take the one seed and getting Pacheco, Brown, and Rice back for the postseason.

Imagine.

I loved Rice last year as much as anyone but the simple fact that Worthy provides something unique — a great downfield threat — means the overall scheme is better equipped than last year when it was just a lot of guys executing within 20 yards

Yeah defenses have to respect Worthy or they'll pay. That's a HUGE element we were lacking last year. Nobody was worried about MVS.

Some might even all it....MAGICK

So is it 12 weeks, or 6 months?

Rashee Rice official —

LCL reconstruction
Hamstring tendon repair

No ACL or meniscus damage. Should be “good to go” in ~6 months but has exactly 11 months to be ready for Wk1 (not taking into account lengthy suspension).

He’s now a dynasty injury-discount Buy. https://t.co/EYVUSyAq1M

Not trusting anybody who is throwing around "lengthy suspension" in their tweet, sounds like a Chiefs hater to me

Good news but I think they act like they’re both out for good and trade for a guy.

Need help now. We just played 14 personnel with 4 TE’s and only 3 WR’s got more than 6 snaps.

Yeah and he brings a unique skill set that complements everyone else very well. Whereas Rice brought more of the same stuff Kelce and Juju will get you. That's no knock on Rice...dude is a baller, but it's jut a different scenario.

12 weeks just for PT after surgery recovery.

6 months total.

Now days you start PT as soon as you can post surgery.

When I had my shoulder rebuilt it was on a Friday and first PT was the following Monday.

Medicine is finally understanding that movement heals and the sooner you move the quicker you recover.

The question would be what was done for the hamstring tendon. If it was any sort of tear or reattachment then they will need to wait a bit extra to make sure that tendon is strong enough. That could delay PT.
