Rashee Rice Could Miss Remainder of 2024 Season

The Kansas City Chiefs had high hopes for wide receiver Rashee Rice as he entered his second NFL season. The two-time defending Super Bowl champions envisioned him as their main target in the passing game after tallying 938 yards and seven touchdowns in 2023. However, his 2024 campaign could be over, as NFL insider Jordan Schultz reported.

Schultz shared that while Rice’s full recovery is expected, he might skip the remainder of the 2024 NFL season. If that’s the case, it’s an unfortunate development for a team seeking to be the first team to win three consecutive Super Bowls.

Rice had an embattled offseason after being involved in a hit-and-run incident in Dallas. Worst yet, he and his companions allegedly left the accident scene without checking on the welfare of the other vehicles and individuals involved.

However, despite that incident, the NFL did not bestow a suspension on Rice, possibly because they were waiting for the verdict from the official investigation. However, with Rice potentially out for the season, the repercussions of his actions might occur next season.
