Already decimated by injuries on offense, the last thing the Kansas City Chiefs could afford is to lose their top weapon for the foreseeable future. After Patrick Mahomes accidentally undercut Rashee Rice’s legs on Sunday, it appears that’s exactly what’s going to happen.
At least, according to Chiefs head coach Andy Reid.
As the Chiefs came out for the second half of their battle with the Los Angeles Chargers in Week 4, Reid had a short but bleak message for CBS’s Tracy Wolfson about the severity of Rice’s apparent knee injury.
This is pretty much the last thing you want to hear if you’re a Chiefs player or fan:

If Reid’s tenor and delivery here is any indication, the Chiefs are about to face a major uphill battle on offense without Rice.
