WATCH: Andrew Hawkins on how the Chiefs’ offense could look without Rice

Police also investigated an accusation that Rice punched a photographer in a Dallas club, but the alleged victim refused to press charges. Though Rice’s hit-and-run incident didn’t result in a suspension this year, there’s a strong possibility that he’ll be banned for multiple games in 2025.

Initially, it was believed that Rashee Rice suffered a season-ending ACL tear in Sunday’s 17-10 win over the Chargers. The Chiefs are still awaiting official word on the severity of the injury, though no news seems to be good news at this time.
