Key Points:
- Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice was booked into Dallas County jail after testing positive for THC, violating the terms of his probation.
- Rice was originally sentenced to five years probation and 30 days in jail for a third-degree felony related to a car crash causing bodily injury in Dallas two years ago.
- The Dallas County District Attorney's office ordered Rice to serve his 30-day jail term immediately due to the positive THC test.
- The NFL previously suspended Rice for six games last season due to the incident, and the league declined further comment on the recent development.
- Rice will miss the remainder of the Chiefs’ offseason program and mandatory minicamp if he serves the full 30-day jail sentence; the Chiefs have not yet commented.
