Will be full-go for start of camp Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said Thursday that Rice will be a full participant at the start of training camp late July, Pete Sweeney of ArrowheadPride.com reports.

Impact Rice has been a full participant at voluntary OTAs and mandatory minicamp, and being fully on track for training camp is confirmation that he'll be cleared for contact. With his health no longer an obstacle, Rice has a clear path to picking up where he left off as the No. 1 wideout for Patrick Mahomes, a role he looked impressive in when he caught 24 passes for 288 yards and three scores across the first three games of 2024, before suffering an LCL tear. Of course, Rice managed that production without having to compete with all of Xavier Worthy, Hollywood Brown and TE Travis Kelce on the field at the same time. The other shoe waiting to drop is an expected suspension related to Rice's involvement in a hit-and-run incident that occurred in Dallas in March of 2024, but the ongoing nature of his legal situation makes it possible that league discipline won't be enforced until 2026.

Chiefs WR Rashee Rice anticipates 'explosive' 2025: 'Excited to put on a show' Rashee Rice was the Kansas City Chiefs' leading receiver before a season-ending knee injury. He's anticipating an "explosive" 2025 season.

JUNE 15 • USATODAY.COM

Full-go at voluntary OTAs Rice (knee) was a full participant in voluntary OTAs on Wednesday, Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports.

Impact Rice missed Kansas City's first week of OTAs due to an illness, but the third-year pro is now back with the team and showing no signs of still being hampered by the season-ending surgery he underwent last October to repair the LCL in his right knee. Head coach Andy Reid previously said in April that Rice was on track to get an essentially complete offseason, while quarterback Patrick Mahomes said late May that the explosive wideout had been working without limitations, so it comes as no surprise to see him now participating in full. A 2023 second-round pick, Rice followed up his excellent rookie season with a phenomenal start to the 2024 campaign, racking up a 24-288-2 receiving line in Weeks 1-3 before injuring his knee just seven snaps into Week 4. It's possible Rice's ongoing legal situation (and likely suspension) aren't resolved until 2026, but he now faces tougher target competition with Xavier Worthy having developed entering Year 2, Travis Kelce returning for a 13th season, and Hollywood Brown healthy and having re-signed.

Absent due to illness Chiefs head coach Andy Reid said Thursday that Rice (knee) is "under the weather" and has been instructed to remain away from the team for this week of voluntary OTAs, Charles Gold...

Impact Rice has missed Kansas City's first group of voluntary OTAs from May 27-29 due to an illness, but he may still be able to participate June 2-4 and/or June 10-13, after which the team will host mandatory minicamp June 17-19. Reid said Rice is making progress in his recovery from the season-ending right knee injury he sustained in Week 4, while quarterback Patrick Mahomes said the third-year wideout "looks explosive and fast" and appears to be working with "no limitations," per Charles Goldman of AtoZSports.com. It remains to be seen whether Rice is yet cleared for live contact, but it's encouraging to see that he's looked quick in on-field drills so far. Rice's ability to rack up yards after the catch gives him potential to be featured even in the Chiefs' crowded receiving corps, though the potential of a suspension in 2025 or 2026 still looms.

Impact Mahomes acknowledged that it remains unclear "how much [Rice will] be able to do" at the start of mandatory minicamp in June, but he expressed encouragement that the standout wide receiver's injury occurred early enough in the 2024 season that "he's going to get pretty much a complete offseason." Coach Andy Reid has already stated that Rice is considered on track for training camp, so while Kansas City may continue taking a cautious approach to the 2023 second-round pick's recovery, he's expected to be fully healthy well ahead of Week 1. That said, Rice remains a candidate to face league discipline related to his involvement in a high-speed, multi-vehicle hit-and-run that occurred in Dallas over one year ago.

The Kansas City Chiefs need some help along the line from the NFL draft

APRIL 16

On track for training camp Coach Andy Reid said Tuesday that Rice (knee) is "on track to be ready" for training camp in July, Sam McDowell of The Kansas City Star reports.

Impact Rice's recovery from right knee surgery to address a season-ending injury sustained Week 4 continues to proceed well. All signs point to the 2023 second-round pick reaching full health well ahead of the start of the 2025 regular season, though he could still face a potential suspension related to his involvement in a hit-and-run car crash that occurred last March. In the three games he played fully last season, Rice emerged as Kansas City's clear top receiving option, racking up 24 catches for 288 yards and two scores. It will be interesting to see what role Rice now finds himself in, with Travis Kelce returning for a 13th season, Xavier Worthy heading into Year 2, and Hollywood Brown and JuJu Smith-Schuster both having re-signed with the Chiefs.
