Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice is a suspect in an alleged assault that injured a man at a Dallas nightclub earlier this week, police there confirmed to The Dallas Morning News on Tuesday.

The newspaper, citing law enforcement officials, reported that officers were dispatched early Monday morning to the nightclub after reports of an assault. A man was taken to a hospital with non-life-threatening injuries, including swelling on one side of his face, the officials told the Morning News.

Police said no charges related to the alleged assault had been filed as of Tuesday afternoon, according to the Morning News.

The Chiefs said they had no comment. Rice’s attorney declined comment to the Morning News.

It’s the latest offseason trouble for Rice, who emerged as a big-time receiver for the Super Bowl champion Chiefs as a rookie out of SMU this past season.

Rice, 24, was arrested in April for his involvement in a seven-car crash in Dallas in March that left at least seven people with injuries. He is facing one count of aggravated assault, one count of collision involving serious bodily injury and six counts of collision involving injury, according to police.

Rice was driving 119 mph before the crash on a Dallas freeway, according to an arrest warrant affidavit obtained by the Morning News. The affidavit also said Rice’s vehicle made multiple aggressive maneuvers to get through traffic.

Free agent wide receiver Tyler Boyd is signing with the Tennessee Titans on a one-year deal worth up to $4.5 million, a source told ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler on Tuesday.

The move reunites Boyd with new Titans coach Brian Callahan, who was Boyd’s offensive coordinator with the Cincinnati Bengals since 2019.

In Tennessee, Boyd will join a depth chart that already includes free agent addition Calvin Ridley, who signed a four-year, $92 million dollar deal in March, and five-time Pro Bowl selection DeAndre Hopkins. It also includes 2022 first-round pick Treylon Burks, whose future with the Titans has been a topic of speculation this offseason.

Burks has not made a significant impact since being taken No. 18 overall two years ago. He has only accounted for 49 receptions for 665 yards and a touchdown in 22 games.

The coaching staff have said they plan to have Burks line up in multiple spots across the formation, just the same as they likely intend to utilize Boyd and Hopkins.

“He’s a first-round pick, obviously you can see all of the talent,” offensive coordinator Nick Holz has said of Burks. “But he’s going to get what he earns.”

Callahan has mentioned the slot position as an area where the Titans were lacking.

“We have to have someone emerge for us at the slot position receiver, when we’re in 11 personnel,” Callahan said before the draft. “You need depth at every position. Guys that are fast, explosive and physical, you can’t have enough of them.”

Having previously played mostly in the slot under Callahan, Boyd should fill that need in Tennessee.

Boyd started 13 of his 17 appearances last season — his eighth with the Bengals — and finished with 67 catches for 667 receiving yards and two touchdowns. He ranks sixth in franchise history in receiving yards (6,000) and fourth in receptions (513), while also scoring 31 touchdowns.

Boyd was one of the most instrumental players of Cincinnati’s turnaround from the NFL’s worst team to nearly winning the Super Bowl. The eighth-year player was one of four holdovers on last year’s roster whom coach Zac Taylor inherited from Marvin Lewis’ staff when he was hired in 2019.

From an offensive perspective, Boyd helped the transition from the Andy Dalton-A.J. Green tandem that the Bengals relied upon for nearly a decade to the current version of the Bengals that features quarterback Joe Burrow and wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase.

Boyd, 29, led the Bengals in total receptions from 2018 to 2020. On top of being a reliable slot receiver, he was a steadying locker room presence and helped in developing Chase, a three-time Pro Bowler who was drafted in 2021, and wide receiver Tee Higgins, who was drafted along with Burrow in 2020.

CINCINNATI — If one didn’t know any better, Tuesday looked like a normal offseason workout for the Cincinnati Bengals and quarterback Joe Burrow.

He weaved through tackling dummies, rolled to the side and threw off one leg, and he launched a couple of balls to receivers in the end zone. But it was more significant than it might seem, as it marked Burrow’s first outdoor team practice since he suffered a season-ending wrist injury in November.

In his first news conference this offseason, Burrow detailed the recovery process from surgery and the challenges presented.

“This was a difficult injury,” Burrow said. “It’s been a tough several months, but physically it’s not the worst injury that I’ve had. I’ve been through much tougher things physically and so that’s been a positive. I’ve been able to really lift and continue my offseason program kind of the way that it always has been.”

As a rookie in 2020, Burrow tore multiple ligaments in his left knee, including the ACL, that also required surgery. While he didn’t miss any games the following year, the season in which the Bengals went to the Super Bowl for the first time in more than three decades, he said it took about a year to feel normal.

On Tuesday, he said he imagines the wrist injury will have a similar timetable.

“Fortunately, that coincides with the beginning of training camp start of the season,” Burrow said. “We’ll see where it’s at when the time comes. You never know, but right now we’re in a good spot.”

Burrow said that at the beginning of the recovery process, he was “flying blind.” Unlike other injuries, such as the strained calf he sustained at the start of 2023 training camp in which he consulted with New York Jets quarterback Aaron Rodgers, he didn’t come across players at his position who suffered a similar wrist injury.

“The guys that I have talked to have been offensive lineman, defensive lineman, linebackers that didn’t have to have that wrist mobility and the little intricacies of the wrist movement like I do,” Burrow said.

The quarterback added that the Bengals’ training staff has done a good job of making sure that Burrow regains motion in the wrist and said the rehab has been “lights out.”

The team’s franchise quarterback spent time Tuesday working with the tight ends, including recent signee Mike Gesicki. Other wide receivers such as Trenton Irwin also worked with the quarterbacks, with top targets Ja’Marr Chase and Tee Higgins absent during voluntary workouts.

Burrow said he has been throwing since around the beginning of April. Irwin noted that the velocity on Burrow’s throws hasn’t diminished despite the wrist surgery.

“It’s there,” Irwin said. “It feels great.”

Burrow, who signed a five-year contract extension worth $275 million last offseason, believes he is cleared for everything but full contact, which could be coming as soon as next month. He declined to say if the wrist was hurting when he threw. However, he is happy with the progress at this stage of the recovery and feels comfortable with any risks of playing with it moving forward.

“I think most of those points are behind us,” Burrow said. “We’re kind of at the end of the six to seven months that this is going to take, and so at this point, it’s just about getting ready to play football and it’ll continue to get better.”
