Rice injured the foot in Week 14 but it's not clear if the knee injury is related. The Seahawks face the San Francisco 49ers in Week 16.
Fantasy Impact: Fantasy owners counting on Rice this weekend will need to pay attention as the week goes along because the knee injury is a new one. Rice has been a solid fantasy wide receiver this season but has a tough matchup against the 49ers on Sunday.
Assuming he’s healthy, Rice should be considered a low-end No. 2/3 wide receiver for Week 16.
