Rice became embroiled in controversy during the 2014 offseason when a video surfaced of him physically attacking his fiancée. After being indicted for aggravated assault, Rice was released by the Ravens and suspended indefinitely by the NFL. Although Rice successfully appealed the indefinite suspension, the incident effectively ended his professional career as no teams signed him in free agency.
