Through the first three weeks, no wide receiver had as many receiving yards as Rashee Rice, but his current total is likely to stay there for the foreseeable future.
Rice injured his leg in the first quarter of the Chiefs-Chargers game after colliding with Mahomes following an interception.
Mahomes threw an interception to Chargers cornerback Kristian Fulton, and in an effort to stop him, Mahomes leaned with his shoulder toward Fulton’s lower half, but amid missing him, he hit Rice’s right knee.
Rashee Rice had to be carted off the field after an ugly-looking knee injury, and according to James Palmer of Bleacher Report, there’s concern that he suffered a season-ending ACL tear.
It is feared #chiefs WR Rashee Rice has potentially suffered a season ending ACL tear per source. An MRI tomorrow will provide more information, but the Chiefs are preparing for the worst. Brutal blow to a player that was off to an outstanding sophomore season.

The second-year pro out of SMU entered Week 4 with 23 receptions on 29 targets for 288 yards and two receiving touchdowns, but did not record any catches on Sunday before his injury.
The Chiefs won the game but lost so much more with the loss of Rice.
He was by far the most targeted receiver on the Chiefs’ offense. He made up for the fact that Travis Kelce was off to a slow start.
Without Rashee Rice — Travis Kelce finally emerged as he hauled in seven catches for 89 yards.
The Chiefs are going to go back to leaning on Kelce for the foreseeable future.
Who Can The Chiefs Replace Rashee Rice With?
The Chiefs desperately need to bring in somebody to replace Rashee Rice.
After blossoming as the No. 1 pass-catching option for the Kansas City Chiefs early in the 2024 NFL season, the wide receiver left Sunday’s game against the Los Angeles Chargers after suffering a knee injury when quarterback Patrick Mahomes collided with the second-year receiver.
He is now feared to have a torn ACL and may be done for the year.
The Chiefs will likely consider all available trades to give Patrick Mahomes everything he wants and needs to ensure the team stays on top.

Everyone had the same observation and resulting joke after finding out Nebraska quarterback Dylan Raiola has a younger brother.
Said sibling is in the news this week, having committed to the Cornhuskers himself, and is expected to be part of the program’s 2026 recruitment class.
Dayton Railoa announced his commitment on Sunday night. He replaced his older brother as the starting QB at Georgia’s Buford High School following his departure for college and has led them to four wins from their first five outings.
Dayton’s commitment makes him the newest Raiola to be associated with the Huskers.
The boys’ father, Dominic Raiola, played for the school from 1997-2000 before going on to spend 14 years with the Detroit Lions in the NFL.
