In a recent development, Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice is reportedly cooperating with the police in connection with a major accident that occurred on Saturday in Dallas. Rice's lawyer, Royce West, confirmed his client's cooperation, according to the Dallas Morning News.
The incident involved multiple vehicles and took place at approximately 6:20 p.m. in northeast Dallas. A vehicle believed to be either leased or registered to Rice was reportedly involved in the crash, as reported by the Dallas Morning News. Rice has been suspected of being the driver of a Corvette, one of the vehicles involved in the accident.
According to the Morning News, the crash occurred when a Corvette and Lamborghini were racing in the far left lane of a street, causing both drivers to lose control of their vehicles. The Lamborghini veered off onto the shoulder, hit the center median wall, and subsequently caused a collision with four other vehicles.
Unfortunately, both the drivers of the Corvette and the Lamborghini fled the scene of the accident without providing any information or checking if anyone involved required medical assistance. Authorities are currently investigating the incident and gathering information to determine the exact sequence of events.
Chiefs president Mark Donovan has commented on the situation, stating that the organization is actively seeking information regarding the incident to make an informed decision. Donovan emphasized the importance of the fact that no injuries were reported as a result of the multi-car crash, expressing gratitude for the safety of those involved.
Rashee Rice, a 23-year-old Dallas-area native and former SMU college football player, had an impressive rookie season with the Chiefs last year. He caught 79 passes for 938 yards and seven touchdowns, setting a record for rookie receivers with 26 postseason receptions during the team's journey to their second consecutive Super Bowl championship.
As the investigation continues, Rice's cooperation with local authorities will be crucial in determining his involvement in the accident and how it will be addressed moving forward. The Chiefs organization will carefully evaluate the gathered information before making any decisions regarding Rice's position within the team.
Both fans and the sports world as a whole will be eagerly awaiting updates on this developing situation.
