Overview
- Rice posted “Everybody Gotta Eat” on X on October 8 as he nears the end of his NFL suspension.
- He is expected to be available for Kansas City in Week 7 against the Las Vegas Raiders after serving six games.
- The discipline followed his guilty plea to two felony charges from a 2024 multi-car crash, resulting in five years of probation and 30 days in jail.
- His layoff also included a season-ending Week 4 knee injury last year after a collision with Patrick Mahomes during an interception return.
- Several teammates, including Travis Kelce and Tyquan Thornton, wore “Free 4” shirts earlier this season, and his return is widely viewed as a potential boost to the passing game.
