Wed Oct 30 201316:09Seahawks put Sidney Rice (torn ACL) on I.R.
Seahawks placed WR Sidney Rice on injured reserve with a torn ACL, ending his season.
Rice tore his ACL and suffered a concussion is Monday night's win over the Rams. He's caught 97 passes for 1,463 yards and 12 touchdowns across 33 games played with Seattle in three seasons. Rice has likely played his last down as a member of the team barring a dramatic pay cut in the offseason. Rice will count $9.7 million against the salary cap in 2014 if he's on the roster compared to $2.4 million if he's released. Jermaine Kearse will replace Rice in the starting lineup until Percy Harvin (hip) is ready, which could be Sunday.

Tue Oct 29 201317:40Report: Seahawks' Sidney Rice has torn ACL
Profootballtalk reports Sidney Rice has been diagnosed with a torn ACL.
Rice had been dealing with knee problems since the offseason, and also suffered a concussion in Monday night's win. The head injury is as concerning as the torn ACL for a player whose 2011 was cut short by two concussions in three weeks. When the 2013 season ends, Rice will have appeared in just 39 of a possible 64 games going back to 2009. It's quite possible Percy Harvin (hip) will take Rice's place in the starting lineup this Sunday.

Tue Oct 29 201313:30Sidney Rice has concussion-like symptoms
Sidney Rice is dealing with concussion-like symptoms.
Coach Pete Carroll made the disclosure in a Tuesday radio interview. Rice also suffered a knee injury in Monday night's win. With the Seahawks on a short week, it's unlikely Rice is ready to face the Bucs. Rice ended 2011 on injured reserve after suffering two concussions in three weeks.

Tue Oct 29 201308:18Seahawks had no update on Rice after game
The Seahawks had no update on Sidney Rice following Monday night's win at St. Louis.
Coach Pete Carroll said Rice "banged his knee" and also his head. When asked how long his starting receiver might be out, he said, "I don't know that." Rice has been dealing with knee issues since training camp and has a history of concussions. Through eight games, he's on pace to catch just 30 passes for 462 yards with six touchdowns.

Sidney Rice was forced from Monday night's game against the Rams with a knee injury and is doubtful to return.
Rice was targeted three times before leaving midway through the second quarter but didn't register a catch. He's battled knee problems in the past. Golden Tate and Doug Baldwin will be the top two receivers the rest of the night.

Fri Oct 18 201300:38Sidney Rice goes 3/501/ versus Arizona
Sidney Rice caught three passes for 50 yards and a touchdown in Seattle's Week 7 win over the Cardinals.
Rice's first grab was a wide-open 31-yard touchdown on a broken play - where Rice showed great awareness by breaking off his route and streaking deep as Russell Wilson bailed on the pocket - while he made a phenomenal 16-yard grab on third down with time running out in the first half. Otherwise, he drew only four targets, and was held to three catches or fewer for the sixth time in seven games. Rice has just 15 total grabs. He's a low-end WR4.

Sun Sep 22 201319:47Sidney Rice gets two TDs in blowout win
Sidney Rice caught five passes for 79 yards with two touchdowns in Sunday's Week 3 blowout of the Jaguars.
Don't overreact to this line. Rice got open at will against the Jags painfully young and inept secondary. The same thing won't happen against the Texans corner duo of Jonathan Joseph and Kareem Jackson in Week 4. Remember that in the first two weeks of the season, Rice totaled three catches for 48 yards.

Mon Sep 16 201302:20Sidney Rice held to one catch in Week 2
Sidney Rice caught one pass for 13 yards in Sunday night's Week 2 win over the 49ers.
Rice was held without a catch through two-plus quarters and was a non-factor on offense. He led the Seahawks with five targets, but dropped a touchdown in the second half and picked up an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty. Rice is nothing more than a low-upside WR3 for next week's matchup with the Jaguars.

Wed Sep 11 201319:54Sidney Rice limited in Seahawks practice
Sidney Rice (knee) was limited in Seahawks practice Wednesday.
Rice has a bum knee, for which he traveled to Switzerland at the start of camp, seeking out treatment. He's likely going to be limited in practice all year. Rice caught two balls for 35 yards in Week 1 and is a low-ceiling WR4.

Sun Sep 8 201317:18Sidney Rice catches two passes in 2013 debut
Sidney Rice caught two passes for 35 yards in Seattle's Week 1 win over Carolina.
It was Rice's first game action of any kind this year; he missed the entire preseason as he worked his way back from a knee injury. Rice will have better weeks, but we still don't like him as anything more than a WR4.

Coach Pete Carroll already deemed Rice ready to rock for Sunday's opener versus Carolina. He's nothing more than a WR4 with minimal upside.

Wed Sep 4 201315:35Sidney Rice (knee) ready for Week 1
Seahawks coach Pete Carroll declared Sidney Rice (knee) ready for Week 1.
Rice returned to practice Wednesday and will start opposite Golden Tate in the season opener against the Panthers. He sat out the entire preseason after undergoing a July knee procedure and remains an injury risk going into the year. Rice has little upside in Seattle's run-heavy offense.

Wed Aug 28 201315:00Carroll expects Rice to be ready for Week 1
Seahawks coach Pete Carroll expects Sidney Rice (knee) to be ready for Week 1.
Rice sat out the entire preseason, but it was mostly precautionary. Injury prone with limited upside in the Seahawks' run-heavy offense, Rice is a WR4.

Tue Aug 20 201317:20Sidney Rice might sit out entire preseason
Sidney Rice (knee) might sit out the entire preseason as a precaution.
Rice has resumed practicing after undergoing a platelet-rich plasma therapy "like" treatment in Switzerland earlier this month, but the Seahawks have little to gain by using their injury-prone $41 million wideout in exhibition action. Rice is a high-risk, medium-reward WR3/4 in Seattle's run-heavy offense.

Fri Aug 2 201321:25Sidney Rice describes Switzerland procedure
Sidney Rice described the knee procedure he underwent in Switzerland as similar to platelet-rich plasma therapy.
He needed the procedure due to patellar tendinitis. Rice scheduled it "earlier in the offseason, a little bit after OTAs" because he's been "having a sore knee for quite a while now." Rice plans to return to practice on Sunday, but won't know if the treatment worked for "a few weeks." We'd advise staying away from Rice in fantasy drafts, and instead targeting Golden Tate.

Fri Aug 2 201318:35Sidney Rice expected to practice Sunday
The Seahawks expect Sidney Rice (knee) to resume practicing on Sunday.
Rice's practice reps are likely to be managed throughout camp as he returns from Switzerland, where the 27-year-old underwent a "non-surgical procedure" on his troublesome knee. The Seahawks could go as far as limiting Rice's in-season snaps in hopes of keeping him healthy. He's a fantasy pick to avoid.
