Rice is now out for Kansas City's next four games, meaning that his earliest chance to return will be against the Denver Broncos in Week 10.

The 24-year-old suffered a knee injury in the first quarter of the Chiefs' 17-10 win over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday. Rice was examined by Kansas City's medical staff on the sidelines before he was eventually carted back to the locker room.
