The Chiefs will officially be without their leading receiver for at least the next four games. Kansas City placed second-year wideout Rashee Rice on injured reserve following the knee injury he suffered in the team’s Week Four win over the Los Angeles Chargers. Chiefs coach Andy Reid had already ruled Rice out for the upcoming Monday Night Football matchup before Thursday’s move was made to put Rice on IR. The 24-year-old leads the team with 24 catches and 288 yards this season while being tied for two touchdown receptions.
