We have known about the Kansas City Chiefs’ future move across state lines to a brand-new, enclosed stadium in Wyandotte County for a little under a year now. On Wednesday, renderings of what the new home of the Chiefs will look like were released.

Kansas City, Kansas Mayor Christal Watson said she is excited by the six renderings the Kansas City Chiefs released Wednesday of their planned domed stadium — but acknowledged she has no answers yet on where exactly within the Star Bond District the facility will be built.

Sleeper: Jalen Royals, WR

Kansas City’s top pass catchers are (in some order) a tight end who turns 37 in October, a wide receiver who it seems is one off-field misstep away from being out of football, and a former first-rounder who only scored one touchdown and 532 yards last year despite playing as the team’s borderline WR1 much of the year. After those three (Travis Kelce, Rashee Rice and Xavier Worthy, in order), the next options are guys like Tyquan Thornton, fifth-round rookie Cyrus Allen, backup tight end Noah Gray and Jalen Royals. In short, this team is not flush with pass-catching options, and if Patrick Mahomes...
