Thursday afternoon's announcement of Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice's sentencing by a Dallas County judge impacts the team's depth at the position. Speculation existed that Rice might avoid a 2025 suspension, but in light of this recent development, it's likely he'll miss significant time this season.
Whether that's four or eight games (or otherwise) is presently unknown, but there are good reasons to wonder if the Chiefs should consider a free agent signing ahead of training camp, which opens on July 21.
The Chiefs could mitigate Rice's pending suspension with a key veteran addition at receiver.
