Overview

  • Rice did not participate in Wednesday’s practice at Chiefs training camp, instead working on the sideline with trainers due to a groin issue.
  • Rice pleaded guilty in July to two third-degree felonies stemming from a March 2024 crash, drawing a 30-day jail term, five years of probation and orders to pay roughly $115,000 in medical expenses plus $1.086 million in a civil settlement.
  • Under the NFL’s personal conduct policy, the league is expected to announce a suspension in the six-to-ten game range before the regular season begins.
  • Last season, Rice underwent knee surgery after tearing the LCL in his right knee and missed the majority of Kansas City’s 2024 campaign.
  • In 20 career games since being drafted in 2023, Rice has recorded 1,226 receiving yards, 103 receptions and nine touchdowns for the Chiefs.
