The other thread is a dumpster fire. I'm sure this will become one as well, but might as well start with a clean slate. I'll at least try to keep the OP updated with any notable news. Feel free to PM me if I miss anything good.
Arrest warrant and potential charges:
Spoiler!
BREAKING: An arrest warrant has been issued for Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice in connection to his involvement in a multi-vehicle crash on U.S. 75 in Dallas in late March, sources tell WFAA. https://t.co/XL3F7oCuW1

Collision involving injury carries a penalty of imprisonment in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice for not more than five years or confinement in the county jail for not more than one year, a fine fine not to exceed $5,000 or both. Collision involving serious bodily injury -- a third-degree felony -- carries a punishment of imprisonment in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice of not more than 10 years or less than 2 years. Aggravated assault -- a second-degree felony -- is punishable by two to 20 years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000.
TL;DR, his concern was at a 2, and now it's a 4 (out of 10). Still probably not a huge deal, but there are some concerning possibilities. Overall, though, he thinks it all gets pled down to misdemeanors, he misses a couple of games, and he writes some massive checks to those he injured.
#Chiefs WR Rashee Rice and former SMU CB Theodore Knox are being sued for $1 million by two victims of the March 30 crash in Dallas, Texas, for severe injuries, including 'trauma to the brain, lacerations to the face requiring stitches, multiple contusions about the body,… pic.twitter.com/RlDvilVLi6
#Chiefs Patrick Mahomes said he's worked with Rashee Rice throughout the offseason and will continue to do so while the legal process plays out for Rice..
I don't give a damn if Rice ever plays another down for the Chiefs. What he did was so stupid and irresponsible. And after he went off on Mahomes, we don't need his BS. If he gets locked up good for him. Fuckin dumbass. [Reply]

I dont think he even looked at rice
not even sure how bad he 'went off' but there were words
Mahomes got screwed by Creed’s low snap with almost no time on the game clock. And he let Rice know about it too, as he should. Creed was the one who screwed the pooch on that play. [Reply]
After reading the charges I think I might be saying goodbye to Mr Rice. There's a pretty good chance he'll be in jail for at least the next 5 years. [Reply]

Yeah and the rookie Rice had no business yapping at the MVP. [Reply]

a hot mic caught it. Rice complained to a coach he was wide open. Mahomes heard him and chased after him saying listen mother ****er he rolled the ball back to me. Rice is walking away and descalating and Mahomes is chasing after him yelling. He was so pissed.
I don’t think the NFL mic’s up would allow that but it was in some mic’d up. I’m sure someone knows where it is. [Reply]

He's looking at max 60 years worth of jail time dude. What do you think they're going to plead that down to if it comes to that? 2 months? Oh hell no. I don't even think he'll be a chief by the time training camp comes around certainly not after the trial if there is one. [Reply]
