Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice has accepted a six-game suspension for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy and will start serving the suspension at the beginning of the season.

The NFL announced Wednesday that Rice will be eligible to return to the Chiefs in Week 7 ahead of their Oct. 19 game against the Las Vegas Raiders. He had been scheduled for a disciplinary hearing on Sept. 30.

In July, Rice was sentenced to 30 days in jail and five years' probation for his role in a multicar crash in Dallas that left multiple people injured during the 2024 offseason.
