I don't know what really happened with this latest incident or what chief hater Florio posted but Carrington Harrington tweeted this a few days ago. I assume this was some pre-draft report.
I missed this detail on a first read. That's at least something more than "he's not a good guy," though yes, appropriate Florio caveats.

Rice (or someone with him), per the specific information gathered by at least one team, fired multiple bullets into the empty car belonging to Kendric Davis.
That's an insane story to not have popped up at some point before this. The fact that he named the basketball player who had his car shot up does lead to it being at least partly true.

Isn’t it possible that the other footage might have got “accidentally deleted” and the shot of him leaving them is the last footage they have of him? [Reply]
How would he possibly be subject to discipline by the NFL for something that was never ever remotely reported until years later that he faced no disciplinary action from? Protect the NFL shield from phantoms?
This smacks of other teams fanning the flames to put the Chiefs in a worse position. I wouldn’t normally follow this sort of thought process, but there wasn’t anything regularly out there about his character pre-draft. This Bob McGinn guy had multiple players listed as “Scouts’ Nightmares.” Plenty of guys aren’t “good dudes,” but that doesn’t mean they don’t deserve a spot in the NFL where they have a real chance to prove themselves and excel. This isn’t the search for the next great Eagle Scout. [Reply]

Yeah, I don’t expect players to be choir boys/eagle scouts etc. don’t murder people. Molest kids. Put your hands on a women. You’re good to play on Sunday. [Reply]

It's all a bunch of fucking horseshit.
Meanwhile, Zay Flowers and Von Miller get accused of domestic violence last season and nobody cares nearly as much as they would have if they were Chiefs. Charges weren't filed though! As if domestic violence victims aren't known for covering up for their abusers. [Reply]
I don't remember a player being punished in the NFL for an incident that happened before they were in the NFL. Hell, Mixon punched a girl in the face (she called him a n***** to his face) in front of a store full of witnesses and at least one security camera, and he wasn't, iirc. [Reply]
It shouldn't affect his suspension. But it sure as hell impacts how the chiefs deal with this kid. It's not just a phase of immaturity. the kids got serious issues and needs a major intervention. This is looking more and more like desean Jackson 2.0 [Reply]
