The court document mentioned: "Trauma to the brain, lacerations to the face requiring stitches, multiple contusions about the body, disfigurement, internal bleeding, and other internal and external injuries that may only be fully revealed over the course of medical treatment.”

Both the plaintiffs were driving their car when the incident occurred and are looking forward to the court passing fair judgment. Rice and Knox are facing charges on one count of collision involving serious bodily injury, one count of aggravated assault and six counts of collision causing injury.

Chiefs coach Andy Reid provided an update on Rashee Rice's situation as the team began their offseason program:

"As far as Rashee Rice goes, his situation, I'm leaving that like we've done most of these, just for the law enforcement part of it to take place, and then we'll go from there with that."

Reid has reportedly spoken to Rice about the situation and there is no gap in communication.

Rice is coming off a phenomenal rookie season, recording 79 receptions for 938 yards and seven touchdowns in 16 games. In the playoffs, he had 26 receptions for 262 yards and scored one touchdown in four games.

He has become an integral component of the team and will be counted on next season as the Kansas City Chiefs attempt to become the first team in NFL history to win three consecutive Super Bowls.

Hopefully, Rice be able to sort out all the legal issues before joining the team in the coming months.
