Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice has been sentenced to serve 30 days in jail after testing positive for marijuana.
Rice's positive test is a direct violation of his probation for his role in a crash that left multiple people injured on a Dallas highway in 2024.
The Texas State Attorney's Office said on Tuesday that Rice was ordered to go to jail as part of his original sentence last July when he pleaded guilty to third-degree felony charges of collision involving serious bodily injury and racing on a highway causing bodily injury.

As part of a plea agreement last summer, Rice was sentenced to five years of deferred probation and 30 days in jail as a condition of his probation, prosecutors said at the time.
Rice is set to be released on June 16.
The Chiefs declined to comment on the case to AP and a message sent to Rice's attorney was not immediately returned.
