Rashee Rice and the 119 MPH Fallout

A Texas court recently ordered former college athlete Theodore Knox to pay over $2.8 million in damages following a high-speed street racing crash in 2024. The judgment stems from a collision involving Knox and NFL player Rashee Rice, both of whom faced criminal charges for fleeing the scene after causing multiple injuries. While Knox received a default judgment due to his absence in court, Rice remains involved in ongoing civil litigation and trials scheduled for later this year. The provided report details the legal consequences for both men, including jail time, probation, and significant financial penalties awarded to the victims. Additionally, the text notes that while the NFL previously suspended Rice for the accident, they recently concluded a separate investigation into abuse allegations against him without finding sufficient evidence for further discipline.
