The Chiefs have not yet commented on Rice’s involvement in the incident and will likely await the outcome of the police investigation before making a full statement. On Monday Chiefs president Mark Donovan said that the team will “gather the facts and we’ll react accordingly.” The NFL is said to be monitoring the situation.
