Yes, we know that players coming back from substantial injuries take time to get their &#8220;football legs&#8221; back, and Rice will need time to build back up.<\/p>\n<p>But CBS Sports&#8217; Cody Benjamin thinks the receiver, who will be in his third year, will come back with a vengeance in 2025.<\/p>\n<p><em>&#8220;By the end of his 2023 rookie season with the Kansas City Chiefs, Rice was arguably Patrick Mahomes&#8217; top pass catcher, emerging with sure, savvy hands to help the club win Super Bowl LVIII,&#8221; Benjamin writes. &#8220;All the promise came to an abrupt halt early in 2024, though, when a torn LCL sidelined him for the Chiefs&#8217; final 13 games. He might still be limited to open Year 3, especially with Xavier Worthy capable of stretching the field for Mahomes, but Rice remains the most well-rounded wideout on Kansas City&#8217;s title-contending roster.&#8221;<\/em><\/p>\n<div class=\"m-detail--body-item m-detail--body-item-inline\">\n<figure class=\"l-inline tml-image m-detail--tml-image--inline\"><a><picture class=\"is-loaded\"><source srcset=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_380\/MjA5NzcwOTA5NzUyMzcwNjQx\/usatsi_24369937.webp 380w, https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_620\/MjA5NzcwOTA5NzUyMzcwNjQx\/usatsi_24369937.webp 620w, https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_700\/MjA5NzcwOTA5NzUyMzcwNjQx\/usatsi_24369937.webp 700w\" type=\"image\/webp\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1240px) 700px, (min-width: 675px) 620px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" \/><source srcset=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_380\/MjA5NzcwOTA5NzUyMzcwNjQx\/usatsi_24369937.jpg 380w, https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_620\/MjA5NzcwOTA5NzUyMzcwNjQx\/usatsi_24369937.jpg 620w, https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_700\/MjA5NzcwOTA5NzUyMzcwNjQx\/usatsi_24369937.jpg 700w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 1240px) 700px, (min-width: 675px) 620px, calc(100vw - 40px)\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"m-detail--tml-image m-image\" src=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/t_share\/MjA5NzcwOTA5NzUyMzcwNjQx\/usatsi_24369937.jpg\" srcset=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"Kansas City Chiefs WR Rashee Rice\" width=\"1200\" height=\"800\" data-src=\"https:\/\/athlonsports.com\/.image\/c_limit%2Ccs_srgb%2Cfl_progressive%2Cq_auto:good%2Cw_700\/MjA5NzcwOTA5NzUyMzcwNjQx\/usatsi_24369937.jpg\" \/><\/picture><\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"m-detail--tml-image-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"m-detail--tml-image-container\"><\/div>\n<\/div><figcaption>\n<p class=\"tml-image--caption\">Sep 29, 2024;
