Check out the latest news and notes around the NFL.
Rashee Rice to not be charged with assault
Rashee Rice will not be charged with assaulting a photographer from early May. The photographer asked police to drop charges against Rice and will not pursue any legal action at this time.
Fantasy Impact
While Rice avoids being charged with this crime, he still faces charges for his involvement with a fiery car crash in late March. His involvement in the crash will likely lead to a multi-game suspension, but the assault will not contribute to Rice’s legal proceedings.

Brandon Aiyuk not present at OTAs on Tuesday
Brandon Aiyuk is not present for day two of OTAs for the 49ers. This comes as no surprise considering he also did not participate on Monday.
Fantasy Impact
Aiyuk and the 49ers are still in the midst of contract extension talks but haven’t been able to close a deal yet. Without Aiyuk participating, first-round pick Ricky Pearsall looks to step in and get some good reps.
