• Chargers' Brenden Rice: Limited work in rookie campaign

  02/17/2025 • By RotoWire

  Rice (shoulder) appeared in three regular-season games for the Chargers in 2024, but he didn't tally any counting stats. Rice was selected in the seventh round of the 2024 Draft out of USC and was unable to create any momentum in his first NFL season. After being a healthy inactive Week 1, he suited up for his first game Week 3 against the Steelers but saw snaps only on special teams. A couple of weeks later, a shoulder injury led to his placement on injured reserve, where he stayed for the remainder of the year. Rice may have an opportunity in training camp to earn a larger role with the Chargers next season if he can stay healthy in 2025.

  Rice (shoulder) isn't likely to have his practice window opened this week, per Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh, Alex Insdorf of BoltBeat.com reports. Rice has missed the required four games since landing on injured reserve Nov. 2, but it doesn't appear he's ready to return to practice. The rookie wideout got into only three games prior to suffering the shoulder injury and played just three offensive snaps along with 10 snaps on special teams.
