Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid told reporters on Monday that wide receiver Rashee Rice is expected to remotely participate in Phase 1 of the team's voluntary offseason program via virtual meetings.
Rice surrendered to authorities Thursday in Texas on charges including aggravated assault after he and another driver of a speeding sports car allegedly caused a crash involving a half-dozen vehicles on a Dallas highway in March.
The NFL has been closely monitoring developments in the incident, NFL Network Insider Ian Rapoport reported last week.
"I'm leaving that like we've done most of these for the law enforcement part to take place and then we will go from there with that," Reid said.
Phase 1 of program runs two weeks and is limited to meetings, strength and conditioning and physical rehab.
Rice was selected in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft at No. 55 overall by the Chiefs. He helped Kansas City to a Super Bowl win as he produced 79 receptions for 938 yards and seven touchdowns.
