New information has emerged regarding the second driver in the car crash case involving Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice.
Rice is facing eight charges for his role in the Dallas crash, as is the other driver, who had been identified by police as Theodore Knox. The Dallas PD confirmed an arrest warrant was issued for Knox for his alleged role in the crash.
Knox is a cornerback for the SMU Mustangs, and he has been suspended from the team as a result.
Police allege that Knox was the driver of the Corvette involved in the crash. Knox is listed on SMU’s website as a junior cornerback. He originally played wide receiver and transferred to SMU from Mississippi State for the 2022 season, meaning he and Rice would have been part of the same position group on the Mustangs that year.
As a sophomore in 2023, Knox made four tackles and played primarily on special teams. The team appeared to be planning on converting him to defensive back for the 2024 season, but with him facing the same eight charges as Rice, his future is now in doubt.
