Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice is apparently unable to stay out of trouble during the NFL offseason, because he is in prison for violating the probation he was sentenced to last offseason for a reckless driving charge from the 2024 offseason.
That’s a lot of offseason mistakes on Rice’s part.
The latest came on Tuesday, when he was found to have tested positive for marijuana (THC), in violation of the July 2025 plea agreement that put him on probation for five years and ordered him to serve 30 days in jail over a five-year span.
Rice was booked into the Dallas County, Texas, jail on Tuesday and will serve his 30-day sentence. His release is scheduled for June 16.

CHIEF STAR RASHEE RICE WILL FULLY PARTICIPATE IN TRAINING CAMP DESPITE SUSPENSION ABOUT, SAYS ANDY REID
The violation order sends Rice immediately to jail for the 30 days he was originally sentenced to serve within five years during his trial instead of adding an additional 30 days. At last year’s trial, Rice also had to pay a total of $115,481.91 in restitution to the accident victims for their out-of-pocket medical expenses.
With Rice in jail for the next 30 days, he will miss the remainder of the Chiefs’ OTAs (May 26-28 and June 1-3) and their mandatory minicamp June 9-11.
The rape was first discovered by Kansas City’s KSHB 41 News and confirmed by OutKick and Pak Gazette.

KANSAS CITY BOSSES’ RASHEE RICE HIT WITH LAWSUIT FROM EX-GIRLFRIEND ALLEGING DOMESTIC ABUSE: REPORT
Neither the NFL nor the Kansas City Chiefs immediately responded to an email seeking comment.
But things could definitely get worse for Rice.
It is possible that this violation of his probation agreement could trigger a new investigation under the NFL’s Personal Conduct Policy.
RASHEE RICE SUSPENDED SIX GAMES BY NFL
Rice served a six-game suspension for violating that policy last year in connection with his driving violation and trial.
Rice actually seemed to make light of that suspension because it was a negotiated agreement with the league. The NFL originally wanted Rice’s suspension to span a double-digit number of games, according to a source. Rice didn’t want to miss more than a month, according to a source, and the parties agreed to the deal before hearing officer Sue L. Robinson ruled on the matter.

A new Personal Conduct Policy investigation could lead to Rice missing more games when the 2026 regular season begins.
Meanwhile, the Chiefs have an obvious problem on their hands.

Rice, one of the team’s top receivers with 156 receptions in his first three NFL seasons, has proven that he can’t be trusted to stay out of trouble. It’s possible the club could fine Rice for missing his mandatory minicamp.
Last year, Rice pleaded guilty to one count of collision involving serious bodily injury and running on a highway causing bodily injury, both third-degree felonies.
Rice was not available for comment Tuesday because he is in prison.
