Rashee Rice 'was driving his Lamborghini at 119mph' in the seconds before causing a multi-vehicle crash in Dallas with the Chiefs star facing eight charges, including aggravated assault

Kansas City Chiefs star Rashee Rice was driving at 119mph in the seconds before he caused a multi-vehicle crash in Dallas, Texas last month, according to a report.

The 23-year-old crashed his Lamborghini on a Dallas highway, leaving at least seven people injured. Police suspect that he was racing it against a Corvette. 

He turned himself over to Glenn Heights police and was taken to the DeSoto Regional Jail, according to NBC, on Wednesday and posted a $40,000 bond before being released.

The wide receiver has been charged with one count of aggravated assault, one count of collision involving serious injury and six counts of collision involving injury after appearing to flee the scene of a car crash on a Dallas highway late last month. 

Dallas police have said that both drivers of the Lamborghini Urus and Chevrolet Corvette were speeding at around 6.20pm CDT on March 30.

The Lamborghini was traveling 119mph 4.5 seconds before the crash occurred, while the Corvette was traveling 116 mph 7.5 seconds before the collision, but had slowed to 91 miles per hour about 1.5 seconds before, according to an affidavit obtained by the Dallas Morning News. 

The speed limit on that stretch of Dallas highway is 70mph and police said the 'reckless' driving put 'multiple people at risk of loss of life and serious injury.'

The cars 'made multiple aggressive maneuvers to get through traffic,' the affidavit said.

Both vehicles are said to have taken 'faulty evasive action' to avoid hitting the other vehicles but couldn't avoid colliding with one another, triggering the chain-reaction crash, which snowballed to include three other vehicles 'in a matter of seconds.'

Theodore Knox, 21, who was driving the other speeding sports car, police said, also turned himself in and was booked into the DeSoto Regional Jail on Friday. 

Knox, who was suspended by SMU on Thursday, faces the same eight charges as Rice. His bail was set at $40,000, which he posted at around 1.30pm CDT Friday. 

Rice and four other men were caught on video leaving the scene of the crash. Police said they did not stop to see if anyone required medical assistance or provide any details. 

The passengers in the speeding sports cars will not face any charges, police said.

Kayla Quinn, who was in one of the vehicles caught up in the crash with her four-year-old son, suffered injuries to her head, neck and back, according to the affidavit. 

Other victims of the crash suffered injuries including someone whose head and torso were in pain; a passenger whose head, neck, shoulders, torso, hip and foot were injured; a man whose head and torso were injured and who has pain in his stomach; a woman who had pain in her neck and back; and a 3-year-old passenger who 'suffered injury to the stomach area, causing him pain,' the affidavit said.

Another driver sustained 'serious bodily injury' to her face and also suffered concussion symptoms, including headaches, extreme light and sound sensitivity and brain fog.

The affidavit said that she will be rendered 'to a life of limited mobility and sight for an undetermined, extended period of time while she seeks treatment.'

Last week, Rice posted a statement on social media taking responsibility for what happened. 

'Today I met with Dallas PD investigators regarding Saturday's accident,' Rice said in his statement. 

'I take full responsibility for my part in this matter and will continue to cooperate with the necessary authorities. I sincerely apologize to everyone impacted in Saturday's accident.'

The police report revealed that 10.8 grams of marijuana was found in the vehicle that Rice's attorney has confirmed he was driving.

In Texas, possession of up to two ounces of marijuana is a Class B misdemeanor, which is punishable by up to 180 days in jail and fine of up to $2,000.

Rice, who is coming off a Super Bowl-winning rookie year with the Chiefs and earns $1.6m-a-year on his current deal, may also face punishment from the franchise and the NFL.

'We continue to monitor developments in the matter,' chief NFL spokesman Brian McCarthy was quoted as saying by Pro Football Talk after Wednesday night's developments. 

Chiefs' President Mark Donovan said that the organization will act accordingly once facts are established.

'In all these situations you have to wait until you have all the facts, and frankly, we don't have all the facts at this point,' Donovan said. 

'The one comforting fact that we do have is that there was a multi-car crash in Texas, in Dallas. And fortunately, it doesn't appear that anyone was hurt, and we should be grateful for that.'

Southern Methodist University suspended cornerback Knox, meanwhile, for his involvement in the car crash that led to an arrest warrant for Rice.

'SMU has been notified by Dallas Police of an arrest warrant for Theodore 'Teddy' Knox, a student-athlete on the Mustang football team,' the statement read. 'Knox has been suspended from the team. SMU takes these allegations seriously.'

Knox, a cornerback for SMU's football team, was suspended by the school earlier this week 

Wide receiver Rice - pictured in action for the Chiefs last season - grew up in Fort Worth, Texas 

'Federal student privacy laws prevent the University from discussing details involving student disciplinary proceedings.'

Rice was born in Philadelphia but grew up in the Fort Worth, Texas, suburb of North Richland Hills. He played college football at nearby Southern Methodist University, where a breakout senior season in 2022 put the wide receiver on the radar of NFL teams.

The Chiefs selected him in the second round of last year's draft, and he quickly became one of the only dependable options in their passing game.

He recorded 79 catches and 938 yards with a team-leading seven touchdown receptions in 16 games (eight starts) after being selected by Kansas City in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft. 

He also had 26 catches for 262 yards and a score in four playoff games to help the Chiefs secure their second straight Super Bowl title. 

He set a franchise rookie playoff record with 130 receiving yards in January's 26-7 playoff win over Miami Dolphins, earning huge praise from Travis Kelce.

'I'm proud of him,' Kelce said. 'I think he's come a long way, and I think he's still ascending as a player in this offense. It's just been fun to see him rise to the occasion and really just catapult us in a lot of ways both in the pass game and run game.'
