Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice will serve 30 days in jail and five years of probation for his involvement in a Texas multicar crash last year, multiple media outlets reported on Thursday.

The sentence followed his guilty plea to two third-degree felony counts: collision involving serious bodily injury and racing on a highway causing bodily injury.

The Dallas district court judge who issued the sentence ruled Rice’s jail time can be served at any juncture during his five-year probation.

Per ESPN, Rice likely will be suspended by the NFL for multiple games after the Lamborghini SUV the wideout was driving struck a retaining wall in what the police called a “chain reaction collision” on March 30, 2024. The end result was a six-car crash in Dallas that left seven people with injuries.

Police said Rice was going as fast as 119 mph on a Dallas freeway.

“Last March, I was involved in a high-speed accident in Dallas,” Rice said in a statement released by his attorney, Royce West. “There have been a lot of sleepless nights thinking about the damages that my actions caused, and I will continue working within my means to make sure that everyone impacted will be made whole. I urge everyone to mind the speed limit, drive safe and drive smart. Last and certainly not least, I am profoundly sorry for the physical damages to person and property. I fully apologize for the harm I caused to innocent drivers and their families.”

He has paid more than $115,000 in restitution to the victims for their medical expenses, the Dallas County District Attorney’s office said.

Rice is continuing his recovery following season-ending surgery on his injured right knee. He sustained the injury after colliding with Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes in a Week 4 road win against the Los Angeles Chargers last season.

A second-round draft pick in 2023, Rice set the Chiefs’ rookie record for receiving touchdowns (seven) and receptions (79) that season. Rice recorded the second-most receiving yards by a rookie in Chiefs history (938), trailing only Dwayne Bowe (995 in 2007).

Rice, 25, caught 24 passes for 288 yards and two touchdowns in four starts last season before his injury.
