It's beginning to look like the Kansas City Chiefs may have Rashee Rice available for their Week 1 game against the Baltimore Ravens despite his legal concerns.

Mark Maske of the Washington Post reported Wednesday the NFL is not expected to place the wide receiver on the commissioner's exempt list. What's more, the expectation is the league will not issue a suspension until the legal process unfolds.

Dan Treacy of Sporting News provided a timeline for Rice's offseason, which notably involved a hit-and-run crash on March 30.
