Chiefs get double bonanza within hours; positive update on Rashee Rice, Xavier Worthy
The Kansas City Chiefs will next face the Baltimore Ravens this weekend at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City.
In a series of major developments, the Kansas City Chiefs welcomed back Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy. While wide receiver Rice returned to the building, his teammate Worthy was back on the practice field. Rice was earlier suspended for six games for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy. Worthy, on the other hand, was away from action due to his shoulder injury, as per the Associated Press.
The Chiefs, now 1-2, will be buoyed by this ahead of a crucial contest against the Baltimore Ravens this weekend at Arrowhead Stadium in Kansas City.
According to AP, Rice, under the terms of the suspension, was not allowed to take part in the practice facility until this week, and he can only participate in meetings and is still not allowed to practice.

Patrick Mahomes reacts to players’ return
“It’s huge just having a guy you work with every single week, all training camp, all season, and having him back in the building,” Chiefs’ Patrick Mahomes was quoted as saying by AP.
“He always has a smile on his face, and guys like him. He’s been here. He’s won a Super Bowl here. Even though he’s young, he can be a teacher for the guys in the room. He can’t practice, but he can be in the meetings and listen to the stuff that we’re working on, and he definitely gives a boost to our offense,” the quarterback added.
