Patrick Mahomes and the Kansas City Chiefs improved to 4-0 with a 17-10 win over the Los Angeles Chargers on Sunday but they suffered a huge loss in the game with wide receiver Rashee Rice exiting in the first half with what the team fears is a torn ACL.
The injury happened after Mahomes threw an interception. The quarterback tried to make a tackle on the return but ended up diving into Rice's right knee.
Mahomes spoke about the injury after the game, saying this about his immediate reaction to it: "I knew it wasn’t good.”
Mahomes added: “Rashee really made a good play. I was trying to tackle the guy and obviously rolled up on him. If I don’t turn the ball over that never happens."
Here's video of the play:
Here’s the play that Chiefs WR Rashee Rice was injured on. Not good looking at all.
