Rice suffered a knee injury in the team’s Week 4 win over the Los Angeles Chargers, with fears that he may miss the remainder of the season. NFL Network insider Ian Rapoport reported on Saturday that Rice is set to undergo an exploratory surgery that will determine the severity of his injury. Rice will meet with knee expert Dr. Dan Cooper, Rapoport reported, with a few different scenarios at play. “Those options range from nine months of recovery if there is major surgery; 4-6 months of recovery if the ACL is intact but there is other damage; 4-6 weeks if the knee is strong and stable, which is the best-case scenario,” Rapoport wrote, noting that the chances of the 4-6 week version “appear slim, but not zero.” The procedure sparked some worry, with Pro Football Talk’s Mike Florio noting it is unusual for a player to need a surgical procedure to determine the severity of an injury. Florio expressed concern about why Rice might need surgery to determine what exams usually can instead.

“I’ve been doing this for 24 years. I can’t remember a knee injury that could only be diagnosed with surgery,” Florio noted. “Maybe it’s happened and I just forget. Maybe it was never explained that way. Regardless, this seems unusual.” Through the first four games this season, Rice leads the Chiefs with 24 receptions for 288 yards and two touchdowns.
