Chiefs' Rashee Rice to be full participant in training camp despite jail sentence
'We're going to progress as normal with (Rice),' Reid said Sunday after the Chiefs arrived at Missouri Western State University's campus for training camp. 'He'll go in and take all the reps that he'll normally take. We always rotate that position, so depending on what happens here with the future, whoever needs to play will step in and know what they are doing and be in good shape to do it.'

Reid said he did not know when the NFL would decide on a potential suspension for Rice.
On Thursday, Rice pleaded guilty in a Dallas County court to two third-degree felony charges, including a collision involving serious bodily injury and racing on a highway causing bodily injury. The charges stemmed from Rice's role in a 2024 multi-vehicle car crash in which he crashed his Lamborghini, causing a chain reaction collision involving four other vehicles.
As part of a plea agreement with the Dallas County District Attorney's Office, Rice will be required to pay restitution to all the victims for their out-of-pocket medical expenses before the plea, totaling $115,481.91.
'We have been closely monitoring all developments in the matter, which remains under review,' the NFL said in a statement after Rice appeared in court.
League sources confirmed to The Athletic on Thursday that Rice is likely facing a multi-game suspension.
Rice apologized to the victims in a statement released by his lawyer Royce West, and said, 'There have been a lot of sleepless nights thinking about the damages that my actions caused, and I will continue working within my means to make sure that everyone impacted will be made whole.'
In a preliminary investigation into the crash, police determined that Rice was racing his former SMU teammate Theodore Knox at high speeds when Rice struck a median wall. Rice and Knox ran from the scene, while two other drivers involved in the crash were treated for minor injuries, and two occupants of another vehicle were taken to the hospital with minor injuries.
An arrest warrant was issued for Rice after the crash, and he turned himself in to police one day later.
In addition to civil lawsuits filed by the other drivers involved, Rice was facing criminal charges of aggravated assault, collision involving serious bodily injury and six counts of collision involving injury.

Rice was not placed on the commissioner's exempt list after the crash, and Jeff Miller, NFL executive vice president of communications, public affairs and policy, said the league would await the outcome of the case proceedings.
After playing in 16 games of his rookie season in 2023, Rice tore the lateral collateral ligament in his right knee in Week 4 last year, ending his season. The Chiefs selected him in the second round of the 2023 NFL Draft.

A former NFL champion shares his daily routine to stay fit at 37 — with open water swimming and 200 grams of protein a day
When James Develin retired from the NFL in 2020 after seven seasons (and three Super Bowl wins) with the New England Patriots, it wasn't long before he started looking for the next big challenge. To stay in elite athlete shape after retirement, Develin knew he needed some structure to replace the typical training cycle of the NFL and giving him something to work toward. That meant a marathon and, most recently, a Navy SEAL-style open water swim — grueling events to inspire his multiple workouts a day. "I didn't have a season to start preparing for, so it was a little bit harder to put myself through two-a-days and three-a-days," Develin told Business Insider. As a 37-year-old father of four, Develin is conscious about retaining his strength in a sustainable way. He shared his daily routine with Business Insider — a regimen of running, swimming, and lifting, along with a high-protein diet worthy of his NFL days. From NFL training to Navy SEAL swims Less than a year after retiring from pro football, Develin took on distance running, completing his first Boston Marathon in 2021. In 2023, Develin met an even more ambitious match for his athletic aspirations when his father-in-law signed up for the Navy SEAL Foundation NYC SEAL Swim. The annual fundraiser is held honor of veterans and lives lost in the September 11, 2001 attacks. "I can run, I can lift, I can do all that stuff, but swimming was not my forte and it still isn't. It's been fun to push my own personal limits," he said. The event combines strenuous open water swimming through the turbulent waters of the Hudson with multiple rounds of push-ups and pull-ups, scenic views of the Statue of Liberty, and a race to the finish at the World Trade Center. The SEAL Swim requires grit, endurance, and discipline to complete. Develin decided to join in, despite limited swimming experience and only a month to prepare. "It's such a great patriotic event, but it's also a great test of one's physical prowess, so it checks a lot of boxes for me," Develin said. There's no secret to training for the SEAL swim besides hours and hours of work in the water, according to Develin. "I just started swimming as much as I could every single day. Through the soreness, through the rain days, the day I don't want to do it," he said. Develin, who lives on the Jersey Shore with his wife and four kids, practices in a pool as well as the nearby bay to get experience managing the unpredictability of open water. Develin works out daily for around two or three hours a day, split between shorter sessions of cardio, swimming, and weightlifting to allow him to spend time with his family, too. "I need to sweat before I can really get on with the rest of my day," he said. "I don't really feel like a day was productive unless I get some sort of workout in." Here's a typical day in his routine. Wake up around 5:30 a.m. Hydrate first thing in the morning with a tall glass of water. Supplements: Develin said he goes through phases of trying supplements to find what works, and currently takes amino acids and NAD+ which help with energy and recovery. A morning smoothie provides some protein first thing in the morning. A cardio workout is first on the agenda, typically a long run. After his workout, Develin wakes up his kids and gets them ready for the day before sitting down to breakfast of high-protein staples such as eggs. For a midday workout Develin hits the gym to lift weights for 45 minutes, sometime between 11 am and 2 p.m. Lunch is often a casual, on-the-go option like sandwiches. Often Develin fits in an evening workout to practice swimming, if he can find the time For dinner, Develin gets to sit down and "live a little" since his wife is Italian and loves to cook. The evening meal is often pasta with homemade sauce and more protein (like chicken or beef). Develin is in bed by 10:30 p.m. most nights to get a solid s even hours of sleep. In total, he aims to eat more than 200 grams of protein daily, about a gram of protein per pound of body weight, to help maintain muscle and strength. In the NFL, Develin's job was to absorb and deliver tremendous amounts of force as a fullback. "You have to go out there and be ready for impact constantly," he said. He's kept the same mindset of pushing himself ever since, aiming to stave off aging with constant movement and new challenges, even when his body is a little slower to bounce back than it used to be. "I recover eventually. It just might take a little bit longer now than it did when I was 30, but I just keep grinding," Develin said. "It's good for your endurance, it's good for your mental fortitude, and that's what works for me."

Two PennDOT projects could slow down travel for fans going home from Steelers training camp
As the Pittsburgh Steelers are reporting to training camp today and as the first open practice is held tomorrow, a couple of PennDOT projects could slow down the ride home for fans in attendance at Saint Vincent College. There are two projects going on that will primarily impact the ride home after a fun day at Camp Tomlin. Seasoned Steelers fans know the joys of what traveling along Rt. 30 in Westmoreland County can bring, but this year, it'll be smooth sailing on the way to camp. However, your travel towards Ligonier will be challenging at the end of the day. "If you're leaving training camp and you're heading to the east, you can expect single lane closures in that area," said PennDOT District 12 Assistant Executive Bill Beaumariage. The impacted area is located along the bridge over the Loyalhanna Creek and is down to a single lane in each direction for bridge reconstruction. When camp wraps up around 5 p.m. and you head west towards Greensburg and onto the Pennsylvania Turnpike, expect to see tree trimming crews closing a lane of Rt. 30 between PA-66 and the Turnpike. "That will start at 5 p.m. to 7 a.m., so if you're leaving training camp late, or you're stopping for dinner and you're heading to or from the Turnpike, you might see or might expect some delays in that area," Beaumariage said. The good news this year is that if you're using Rt. 22 and Rt. 981 through Latrobe to get to or from Saint Vincent, the work you encountered last year is gone and that's a construction-free route. For fans going to Saint Vincent on Thursday, the campus opens for parking at 11:45 a.m., the gates open at Noon, and practice starts just before 2:00 p.m.
