While that would still mean that the player is out for the season, it would imply that it is less severe than previously thought. On that point, both the original posters look to agree.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rashee Rice suffered an injury against the Chargers and Chiefs fans have been waiting for updates from NFL insiders like Adam Schefter and Ian Rapoport.
