Chiefs | KC continues to endorse Kadarius Toney Tue Apr 16, 02:39 PM
Kansas City Chiefs WR Kadarius Toney has been among a group of players working out in Texas with Patrick Mahomes recently and is still someone the team is hoping to see fulfill his potential, according to comments made by head coach Andy Reid on Monday, April 15.'Kadarius is arguably one of the most talented guys we have on the team. It's just a matter of being healthy and being able to stay on the field and you always hear about the reliability, accountability, all those things that go into it. And so I'm expecting him to come back ripping and ready to go. It's great that he's down there working with Pat and putting the work in. So that's a position. Listen, we like Kadarius. It's just a matter of having him on the field,' Reid said.
Footballguys view: Fantasy managers have been down this road enough to keep expectations in check. Dial back expectations, but Toney is currently WR122 on Underdog. He's a free square avaialable in the last round of drafts for those so inclined. |

Link to storyChiefs | KC, Jonathon Brooks meeting Monday Mon Apr 15, 05:07 PM
Texas RB Jonathon Brooks is having an official visit with the Kansas City Chiefs Monday, April 15.
Footballguys view: Brooks was en route to a historic season in 2024 before he suffered a season-ending ACL injury, with 1,139 rushing yards and 10 touchdowns, plus 25 catches for 286 yards and a receiving touchdown. Running back might not be viewed as the biggest need, but the Chiefs do need to find a back with some long-term potential as a complement and maybe even eventual successor to Isiah Pacheco. |

Chiefs | Clyde Edwards-Helaire back for another year Tue Apr 2, 04:08 PM
Free-agent RB Clyde Edwards-Helaire (Chiefs) reportedly agreed to terms on a one-year contract to return to the Kansas City Chiefs on Tuesday, April 2. Financial terms of the deal were not immediately disclosed.
Footballguys view: A former first-round pick, Edwards-Helaire had 1,100 yards from scrimmage with five total touchdowns as a rookie. But injuries and Isiah Pacheco's rise have relegated CEH to a minor role, and the Chiefs declined his fifth-year option last spring. Edwards-Helaire had 411 yards from scrimmage on 87 touches as the Chiefs won Super Bowl LVIII. In 48 games with 32 starts, Edwards-Helaire has recorded 1,845 yards rushing with 12 touchdowns. He's also caught 89 passes for 765 yards with seven TDs. |

Chiefs | Kansas City getting to know J.K. Dobbins Tue Apr 2, 12:41 PM
Free-agent RB J.K. Dobbins (Ravens) is reportedly visiting with the Kansas City Chiefs on Tuesday, April 2.
Footballguys view: After recently receiving medical clearance following last year's torn Achilles tendon, Dobbins reportedly has a visit scheduled with the Chargers. Injuries have been an issue. Dobbins lost all of the 2021 season when he tore his ACL in the final preseason game. He was back for the start of 2022 but missed six weeks of the season due to arthroscopic knee surgery. He missed nearly all of the 2023 after going down in Week 1. Perhaps a chance of scenery will bring a change of luck. |

Kansas City Chiefs impending free-agent DL Chris Jones appears unlikely to remain with the team after his contract efficiently expires at the start of the new league year on March 13, according to NFL.com's Jeffri Chadiha. Among the many factors, Chadiha cites the fact that Kansas City has never given substantial money to a player who has reached the age of 30 (Jones will hit that mark in July) as well as Jones' desire to get paid handsomely (he was asking for a deal in the $30 million annual salary range neighborhood last year).
