The Rashee Rice saga for the Kansas City Chiefs has finally reached the conclusion, with the wide receiver accepting a six-game suspension to begin the 2025 season.

 

The suspension is for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy, stemming from an incident in the 2024 offseason in which Rice caused a multicar crash while racing on a Dallas highway that left multiple people injured. He was sentenced to 30 days in jail and five years' probation for the crimes in July.

 

The ruling from the NFL voids the September 30th hearing that was orignally set, to be held before former federal Judge Sue L. Robinson.

 

Rice will miss games against the Chargers, Eagles, Giants, Ravens, Jaguars, and Lions. He will be eligible to return to the lineup on October 19th against the Las Vegas Raiders.
