Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice was jailed in Texas on Tuesday after violating the terms of his probation.

Rice was booked into the Dallas County Jail just after noon local time Tuesday, according to online jail records.

An order from a Dallas County judge says Rice is to serve 30 days in jail after violating his probation by testing positive for THC, the psychoactive ingredient in marijuana. He is set to be released June 16.

Rice pleaded guilty to two third-degree felonies in a 2024 crash -- collision involving serious bodily injury and racing on a highway causing bodily injury -- and was sentenced to five years of probation.

Rice grew up in Texas and played college football there. The Chiefs selected him in the 2023 NFL draft.
