<p>Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice will suit up for Week 1 after all.</p>

<p>According to reports, the NFL has set a Sept. 30 date for Rice's disciplinary hearing for his involvement in a high-speed, multi-car crash in March 2024. That means Rice will be eligible to play in the first four weeks of the 2025 season before he faces consequences – potentially a multi-game suspension – from the league.</p>

<p>Rice pleaded guilty to two third-degree felony charges – collision involving serious bodily injury and racing on a highway causing bodily injury – in July and was sentenced to 30 days in jail and five years of deferred probation.</p>

<p>OTHER NFL SUSPENSIONS: Vikings WR Jordan Addison gets three game ban, NFL announces</p>

<p>Rice would be the third wide receiver – and sixth player overall – to face a multi-game ban in 2025 if the league hands down a suspension as expected. The NFL fined Los Angeles Rams wideout Drake Stoops $93,334 and gave him a two-game suspension for PED use, and Minnesota Vikings receiver Jordan Addison will miss the first three games of the season for violating the league's substance abuse policy.</p>

<p>However, because of the scheduling of Rice's hearing, the Chiefs' presumptive lead receiver will not receive a suspension until after the first four weeks of the season. He'll be eligible to play against Kansas City's first four opponents in 2025 – Los Angeles Chargers (in Brazil), Philadelphia Eagles, New York Giants and Baltimore Ravens – before the Sept. 30 hearing.</p>

<p>Rice missed 13 games and all but four snaps of a 14th last season after injuring his knee in a collision with quarterback Patrick Mahomes following an interception. He tallied 288 yards and two touchdowns on 24 catches in the four (three full) games he played in.</p>
