Rashee Rice sends powerful message to $7m star as Chiefs agree key deal for Super Bowl winner
Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid is retooling for another Super Bowl challenge. The Philadelphia Eagles sent the three-peat-chasing Chiefs tumbling back down to earth with a brutal demolition in New Orleans. Rashee Rice was enjoying a brilliant season before a cruel injuryGetty Sophomore receiver Rashee Rice missed the game after undergoing surgery to repair a torn LCL in October. He will be back on the field this year and appears to be delighted with Reid’s offseason work. ESPN revealed on Thursday that defensive end Charles Omenihu is returning on a one-year deal that could be worth $7 million. Rice shared the news on his Instagram story with the caption ‘Let get it brudda!’ The 27-year-old has spent two seasons in Kansas City since arriving as a free agent. He missed the first six games of the 2023 campaign after being suspended for a violation of the NFL‘s personal conduct policy. Omenihu was arrested in January of that year on suspicion of misdemeanor domestic assault. A fifth-round Draft pick by the Houston Texans, he enjoyed the best season of his career following the ban with seven sacks and another in the playoffs. He tore his ACL in the 2023 AFC Championship Game victory over the Baltimore Ravens and was forced to sit out of the Super Bowl triumph over the San Francisco 49ers before playing nine games last season. Left tackle Jaylon Moore, who has been backing up All-Pro Trent Williams with the 49ers, was another big free agency signing on a two-year, $30 million deal.
