Chiefs' team president Mark Donovan told KCMO Talk Radio on Monday morning that the organization was still gathering facts and would take appropriate action, though there is a lot about this situation that we don't know.

Royce West is considered one of the best attorneys in Texas with a long career spanning both law and politics. He represents the 23rd District based in Dallas.

The NFL has not made any official statement and it seems we'll know more information in the coming days. For now, it sounds like Rice has communicated with law enforcement and is cooperating. After breaking out as a potential star in his rookie season, Rice was expected to be one of the most important players on Kansas City's offense in this upcoming season.

This is a developing story and we'll keep you updated as more information becomes available.
