Chiefs coach Andy Reid told reporters that WR JuJu Smith-Schuster (right hamstring) will be out for this week's game against the Raiders.
| Footballguys view: Smith-Schuster first injured the hamstring in practice on Thursday and left that day's workout before it was finished. But he returned the following day, and Andy Reid said he would play against the 49ers. Smith-Schuster started but aggravated the injury in the first quarter. He did not return. Mecole Hardman, who helped fill the void after Smith-Schuster left against the Niners, could get an opportunity to do that again in a favorable matchup in Week 8. |

Chiefs | Rashee Rice recovery timeline revealed Mon Oct 14, 02:18 PM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (knee) underwent successful surgery to repair his posterolateral corner (PLC), and his recovery timeline is expected to be similar to that of an ACL tear, head coach Andy Reid told reporters Monday, Oct. 14.
| Footballguys view: "His surgery was not his ACL; it was the posterior lateral corner -- there's damage there," Reid said. "It's probably the same result, though, as you'd get time-wise for an ACL. It takes a while for that to come back. He'll get into his rehab and get rolling on that as we go here. That's what it was." Rice suffered his injury early on in the Week 4 victory over the Chargers. He will finish his 2024 season with 24 catches for 288 yards with two touchdowns. JuJu Smith-Schuster handled the Rice role nicely in Week 5. We'll see if that continues when the team returns from their bye against the 49ers in Week 7. |

Chiefs | Surgery Reveals Rashee Rice Avoided ACL Damage Tue Oct 8, 03:44 PM
According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, it's good news for Rashee Rice following surgery, as the ACL, meniscus, and MCL didn't need to be repaired.
| Footballguys view: The belief heading into the procedure was that Rice needed his LCL repaired, but it would likely be the only ligament that required repair. It turns out that's the case. While it seems likely Rice's 2024 regular season is over, without ACL damage, his recovery time dials back from nine months to a potentially much shorter range. The current expectation is three to six months for a full recovery. We'll continue to watch for more and follow up as needed. |

Chiefs | Rashee Rice Unlikely To Play This Year, But Full Recovery Expected Mon Oct 7, 06:54 PM
While Chiefs star WR Rashee Rice's season is expected to be over, he did receive positive news today from Dr. Dan Cooper. According to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport, Rice needs his LCL repaired, but there is a chance that's the only ligament to be repaired.
| Footballguys view: Adam Schefter chimed in by noting it's unlikely that Rice will play again this season, but doctors will not know for sure until they perform surgery Tuesday morning, per source. If it's just an LCL repair, Rice's recovery would be measured in months -- potentially three months. So if the surgery tomorrow confirms that's the only damage -- if his ACL does not require a reconstruction, that's excellent news. He should be healthy enough for next season. |

Chiefs | Rashee Rice timetable clearing up Mon Oct 7, 10:35 AM
Updating previous reports, Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice (knee) could return this season and be sidelined six to eight weeks, according to league sources, but nothing will be determined until after his procedure Monday, Oct. 7.
| Footballguys view: According to ESPN's Adam Schefter, the Chiefs will first want to get doctors' final determination of Rice's status, which could come as early as today after he undergoes a knee procedure. Once the Chiefs have clarity on Rice's injury, they can move into action. With Rice out indefinitely and Hollywood Brown lost for the remainder of the regular season due to a shoulder injury requiring surgery, the Chiefs will explore all their options to determine whether they can make another trade for a wide receiver. We'll continue to watch for more. |
