It should not come as a surprise that the Kansas City Chiefs wide receiver Rashee Rice has a love for fast things. The pacey catcher proved to be influential in winning the Super Bowl for his team. But a recent road accident has raised interest in his car collection.
The Southern Methodist University graduate was drafted by the Chiefs last year in the 2023 NFL Draft. He was picked in the second round, but his flair and grit have proven the pick to be a bargain. The Chiefs signed him on a 4-year deal worth $6.49 million. And the WR has become the owner of a fast beast with that payment! Even though the 23-year-old Rice is a private person, on his Instagram he did let it slip the car he drives. The Texas native is a proud owner of a 2023 C8 Corvette Z6. This model is available to purchased between $125,000 and $145,000 depending on the customisations.

Apart from the black Corvette, Rice has one more car that is close to his heart. And that is because of his college football team, the SMU Mustangs. As per rumors, back in 1963, the CEO of Ford Motors Henry Ford II named his newest car on the college football team.
Rice’s time with the Mustangs made him admire the muscle car more and more. And through his social media, the Super Bowl winner has demonstrated his love for a Ford Shelby Mustang GT500.
