Jason Smith: "This is who the Chiefs are. When Tyreek Hill was going through the whole issue with his son and the broken arm, did the Chiefs do anything to take a stand? No, Tyreek Hill played. He played all the way through it, and didn't get suspended. Here is Rashee Rice, you think he should be away from the team while this is going on? Yes, this is a really bad thing, doesn't matter. This is how the Chiefs do it. Players think the Chiefs are one of the worst run franchises out there. They don't have certain amenities that all other teams have. I wonder what it would be like without Mahomes. If Mahomes were on a different team, would we be raving about the Chiefs? I don't think so. These are awful things for the Chiefs to shrug their shoulders at. We know what happened with Rashee Rice. This is bad, especially when you allowed Tyreek Hill to play and there was nothing where you made it seem like you were going to do something about it. This takes the NFL back to pre-Roger Goodell with Paul Tagliabue, where you could get a DUI on Saturday and the NFL would still let you play on Sunday. This is a bad look."
Jason Smith and Mike Harmon react to the news that Chiefs WR Rashee Rice is currently attending the team's OTAs despite various unsettled off-field issues. The guys explain why it is surprising to see such a blatant disregard for off-field issues in this day and age, and Jason holds the Chiefs accountable for their questionable handling of Rice's issues this offseason.
