Rashee Rice News
Friday, April 3, 3:45 PM
The NFL concluded on Friday that Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice "has not engaged in conduct that violates the personal-conduct policy," according to Adam Schefter of ESPN. The investigation into accusations from his former girlfriend is now closed, and there will be no discipline from the league at this time. "Mr. Rice wants to thank the NFL for their thorough investigation, and looks forward to the start of the 2026-27 NFL season," Rice's attorney, Sean Lindsey, said in a statement. The 25-year-old Rice is no stranger to bad off-the-field publicity, as he was suspended for the first six games in 2025 due to a high-speed hit-and-run incident in Dallas. The former second-rounder in 2023 out of SMU caught 53 of his 78 targets for 571 yards and five touchdowns in his eight games played in 2025 before suffering a concussion in Week 15 and missing the final two games. The Chiefs can't be happy with Rice's choices off the field, but with no discipline affecting his fantasy value in 2026, he should have a pretty high ceiling as KC's WR1. Rice had a 79-102-7 line in 16 games in his rookie campaign, but he's played only 12 games since due to injuries and suspension.

Puka Nacua News
Wednesday, April 1, 7:04 PM
According to Adam Schefter of ESPN, Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Puka Nacua has checked into a rehab facility. Per the star wide receiver's attorney, Levi McCathern, he has been in rehab for a "substantial period" before previous allegations of assault, and "he's scheduled to be there for a while longer." Earlier in the offseason, Nacua was accused of biting a woman in Los Angeles and had charges pressed against him. In these charges, the victim claimed Nacua made serious, vulgar, antisemitic remarks before biting her forcefully several times. While the wideout has denied all accusations regarding this incident, he is seeking additional help and support at this facility. Managers should continue to monitor this situation in the offseason, as a court hearing regarding this incident is scheduled for April 14.
