The Kansas City Chiefs may have had a very good reason to draft speedy wide receiver Xavier Worthy in the first round of the 2024 NFL draft in April.
The Chiefs have reportedly revealed their expectations on the suspension for Rashee Rice stemming from the multi-vehicle crash he was involved in on a Dallas expressway.
This from MLFootball on X, via NFL insider James Palmer.
“BREAKING: The #Chiefs are expecting their star WR Rashee Rice will be suspended for at least half of the season by the #NFL, per James Palmer. It appears the league will be extremely harsh on Rice.”
Rice was engaged in a race with a fellow driver, driving 119 MPH, when he crashed his rented Lamborghini which triggered a multi-vehicle accident.

Rice has been charged with one count of aggravated assault, one count of collision involving serious injury, and six counts of collision involving injury.
Nobody was seriously injured in the accident.
Rice was a rookie for the Kansas City Chiefs last season as he helped them to a second consecutive Super Bowl championship.
For the 2023 regular season, Rice had 938 receiving yards and seven receiving touchdowns on 79 catches over 16 games.
