Expect some minor adjustments to Kansas City’s 90-man roster ahead of training camp.
With the team’s mandatory minicamp now in the rearview, the Kansas City Chiefs made a trio of roster moves on Friday.
Veteran guard Tremayne Anchrum was released. The former Los Angeles Rams seventh-round selection joined the Chiefs on May 16.
Also on Friday, the Chiefs waived tight end Kevin Foelsch, only ten days after signing with Kansas City on June 11.
One of the roster openings will be filled with rookie center Joey Lombard, who officially joined the team on Friday. Lombard was one of four tryout...

By a narrow margin, Chiefs fans would most like to have former quarterback Alex Smth become an assistant coach for the team. Tamba Hali, of course, already serves as an unofficial...
It’s the offseason, so let’s have some fun speculating about the what ifs.
It’s still jarring to see the Chiefs as a sterling NFL franchise. Long after Hank Stram urged his team to matriculate the ball down the field and Len Dawson smoked a butt on the sidelines (during the first Super Bowl!), the franchise was inept.
Digging into the depleted funds of my memory bank, I find a solid decade of Marty Schottenheimer playoff bungling, drafting Todd Blackledge in 1983 over Dan Marino and Jim Kelly; the whole Scott Pioli disaster, more proof that Bill Belichick’s coaching/management tree is...
The former Clemson standout has drawn attention during Kansas City’s recent practices.
After the NFL Draft, the Kansas City Chiefs signed tight end Jake Briningstool as an undrafted free agent out of the University of Clemson. Briningstool had become one of the most decorated tight ends to ever play for the Tigers.
While the Chiefs seem pretty set at the position (with Travis Kelce, Noah Gray and Jared Wiley all likely to make the team), an impressive camp and preseason could earn Briningstool the fourth chair in the tight end room.
A four-star recruit out of Ravenwood High...
Kansas City’s second-year safety will have big shoes to fill this season.
For the third straight year, I’m considering the 10 biggest questions I have for the Kansas City Chiefs for 2025. Let’s get started!
During this offseason, the Chiefs didn’t make major changes to their defense. They added just one significant free agent: former Los Angeles Chargers cornerback Kristian Fulton, who will compete for a starting job on the outside. In the draft, the team acquired defensive tackle Omarr Norman-Lott, defensive end Ashton Gillotte and defensive back Nohl Williams. As rookies, none of these players are expected to fill...
The Chiefs made a number of defensive selections in this year’s NFL Draft.
For Kansas City Chiefs linebacker Nick Bolton, leadership means more than just calling plays; it means mentoring the next wave of players.
As the “Green Dot” on Kansas City’s defense, Bolton is already impressed with what he’s seeing from three of the team’s newest additions: second-round pick Omar Norman-Lott, third-round edge rusher Ashton Gillotte and fifth-round linebacker Jeffrey Bassa.
When asked about Norman-Lott and Gillotte, Bolton didn’t hesitate to praise their maturity and preparation.
“I was super surprised, man, about...
The Kansas City cornerback reflects on his recovery from last year’s ankle injury as he enters the final year on his contract.
Kansas City Chiefs cornerback Jaylen Watson is entering the 2025 season with a renewed sense of optimism after a challenging year that saw him sidelined for most of the regular season.
Watson played in just seven games in 2024 before suffering a fractured ankle that forced him to miss the remainder of the regular season. Now fully recovered, he’s focused on making the most of this fresh start.
“Injuries are tough, but I’m just blessed to be in...

NFL luxury players in 2025: Best slot CB, backup QB, more | ESPN
Short-yardage running back
Kareem Hunt, RB, Kansas City Chiefs
The league’s best back in short yardage is about to become a luxury with an expensive contract in Los Angeles. If rumors hold true and Kyren Williams gets a new deal with the Rams, coach Sean McVay & Co. will be locking up a back who has gone 39-of-45 (86.7%) in converting third or fourth down with 1 or 2 yards to go over...
It was good news from Reid on two of the most important Chiefs players entering the 2025 NFL season.
On Thursday, Kansas City Chiefs head coach Andy Reid brought favorable news to the podium as the club closed down for the summer: He confirmed both wide receiver Rashee Rice and offensive tackle Josh Simmons should be full participants at the start of training camp in late July.
Rice missed the rest of the season after a Week 4 knee injury against the Los Angeles Chargers. Simmons slid to the Chiefs at pick No. 32 because of the patellar tendon tear...
Kansas City will open its training camp in St. Joseph on Monday, July 21.
Speaking on Wednesday, Kansas City Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes expressed some frustration with the increasingly shorter break between the NFL offseason program and training camp.
“I don’t know how it works,” he told reporters. “It just seems like [the summer break] is getting shorter and shorter every single year. But that’s part of the process.”
On Thursday, however, we learned that head coach Andy Reid is joining a new trend: eliminating an extra week of training camp that included three practices for rookies and quarterbacks, giving...
Kansas City’s superstar tight end took the Super Bowl loss hard — but is focused entirely on bouncing back in 2025.
The Kansas City Chiefs’ Travis Kelce was not in evidence during the OTA practice sessions that were open to reporters during the last three weeks. But as expected, the team’s most famous tight end — who had been reported to have dropped 25 pounds during the offseason — was on the practice field for this week’s mandatory minicamp practices.
Speaking with reporters after Wednesday’s session, Kelce pushed back on the weight-loss report.
“First of all, I never said that,”...
