Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice found himself in the spotlight on Wednesday for promoting a play-to-earn app on Instagram. He encouraged followers to engage with multiple games on the platform to generate income.
Social media users reacted intensely to Rice's post. Many comments connected the promotion to his ongoing legal troubles and financial obligations, referencing child support and legal fees. Fans expressed skepticism about the venture's success, with some questioning its impact on his performance.
This promotional activity follows a lawsuit filed earlier this month by Rice's former girlfriend, Dacoda Jones. She alleges a history of physical assault, including incidents that occurred while she was pregnant with their two children. Rice also publicly announced a relationship with rapper Rubi Rose on Valentine's Day this year.
Rice signed a four-year rookie contract worth $6,495,218 with the Chiefs in June 2023. He achieved a Super Bowl win in his inaugural season and reached the Super Bowl again in 2025, though his team lost that game. The Chiefs did not make the playoffs last season.
