Rashee Rice reportedly intends to turn himself in to Dallas police following the arrest warrant issued for him on Wednesday.
Eight charges were reportedly filed against Rice, two of which carry a felony designation after he admitted to driving the Lamborghini involved in a six-vehicle crash just under two weeks ago in Texas that injured four people.
It's unclear exactly when Rice will turn himself in, though his attorney, Royce West, has maintained that Rice is fully cooperating with the investigation.

The eight charges include six charges of collision involving bodily injury, one of collision involving serious bodily injury and one of aggravated assault. The latter two are the most significant, as both are considered felonies in Texas law.
Rice, widely expected to become one of the faces of the Chiefs' offense after a breakout rookie campaign, has apologized on social media but has not yet spoken to the public.
It's unclear if West intends to work with prosecution on a potential plea deal, though all possibilites are on the table. Neither the NFL nor the Chiefs have issued any official statements on the matter but both parties are reportedly tracking the investigation and gathering facts.
