Rice is expected to miss the remainder of the season after he underwent successful surgery Tuesday to address an LCL injury in his right knee, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
NFL reporter Jordan Schultz adds that Rice also had his hamstring tendon repaired as part of the surgery, but the wide receiver didn't have any damage to ACL, MCL or meniscus. While Rice will miss the remainder of the 2024 campaign, the lack of additional structural damage bodes well for the 24-year-old wideout's chances of being ready to go for the start of the 2025 season. Even if he's back to full health however, Rice could still have to serve a suspension due to the criminal charges he's facing for his involvement in a hit-and-run car crash in Dallas that occurred last March.
