Chronological Timeline
Trade 1 of 2
Cincinnati acquired guard-tackle Gary Kirner from San Diego on May 19, 1970 for defensive tackle Andy Rice. Kirner never played a regular-season game for the Bengals and was released before the season. Rice gave San Diego two seasons of useful work, appearing in 21 games with 10 starts across 1970 and 1971. The Chargers turned an expendable lineman into a real contributor, making this a clear San Diego win.
Trade 2 of 2
San Diego traded defensive tackle Andy Rice to Kansas City in early May 1972 for a 1973 seventh-round draft choice. Contemporary UPI reporting described the return as a future draft choice, while the Chargers' own trade history identifies it as a seventh-rounder. Rice was released by Kansas City on September 14 without appearing in a Chiefs regular-season game.
