In the fourth game of the season, Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes attempted to make a tackle after throwing an interception, and his helmet collided with Rice's knee. Rice missed the remainder of the season, but he has been on track to play in the 2025 season opener -- at least from a health perspective.

Rice, 25, sat out the majority of the 2024 season after suffering a torn ligament (LCL) in his right knee that required season-ending surgery. Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes had thrown an interception and dove into Rice's leg as they were attempting to make a tackle.

While he's still facing a potential suspension and is coming off a torn ACL, Chiefs receiver Rashee Rice has been practicing throughout training camp.
