The rookie left tackle spoke to media members after Kansas City’s mandatory minicamp workout on Tuesday.
Following the first mandatory minicamp practice on Tuesday, Kansas City Chiefs rookie left tackle Josh Simmons stepped up to the podium to update media members on his recovery.
Recent notes about Simmons have been encouraging, with head coach Andy Reid explaining he has been pleasantly surprised with the first-rounder’s progress recovering from the torn patellar tendon he suffered in October.
Simmons, however, isn’t surprised at all.
“This is kind of what I anticipated,” he said. “It’s what I worked toward. I got my operation...

As the NFL’s longest-tenured mascot, Meers has played the role for 35 years.
On Tuesday, Dan Meers announced his retirement as the Kansas City Chiefs’ beloved mascot “KC Wolf.”

What’s working for them: If the Raiders’ core aim is to establish baseline competitiveness, Pete Carroll and Geno Smith seem to be fitting leaders for that mission. With Chip Kelly designing the offense, the coach and quarterback could rekindle the spark that allowed them to defy expectations in Seattle. Heisman Trophy runner-up Ashon Jeanty’s arrival should immediately change the complexion of a historically putrid ground game, while the receiving...

Reporters can attend every session, and we’re expected to hear from Andy Reid and Patrick Mahomes on Thursday.
The Kansas City Chiefs conclude Phase 3 of the 2023 offseason program this week with mandatory minicamp — which occurs Tuesday through Thursday at the team’s practice facility.
The Chiefs’ offseason program began with Phase 1 in mid-April — with rookie minicamp in early May and voluntary workouts in late May and early June. After this minicamp, the team will break and reconvene for training camp, which is expected to begin sometime in mid-July.
Unlike the first portion of organized team activities...

The young tight end has the college pedigree to tape to possibly make the rosters
We’re a few weeks into June, and the sweet melody of romance hums through the air like a cicada in the night—constant, electric, and impossible to ignore.
As we keep swiping through the Kansas City Chiefs organization, searching for someone worth a right swipe, Jake Briningstool popped onto the screen. It’s the 6-foot-6, 240-pound tight end from Clemson who looks like the love child of Ivan Drago and Catherine Trammell.
With fellow tight end Travis Kelce’s celebrity growing by the day and Noah Gray locked...

Let’s discuss the Kansas City star’s reported weight loss.
While the Kansas City Chiefs’ superstar Travis Kelce still ranked fifth among all tight ends with 823 receiving yards in 2024, it was his lowest total since his first starting season in 2014. To some observers, it appeared that Kelce had lost a step — and the 35-year-old also had to deal with lots of attention from defenses that had relatively little to fear from Kansas City’s wide receiver corps.
But according to a weekend report from ESPN’s Field Yates, Kelce has dropped 25 pounds as he prepares for what is...

Looking back, first-team All-Pro center Creed Humphrey called it “a bad day at the office.” And it was, in the same way that the Season 2 finale of “Severance” depicted a bad day at Lumon Industries.
There was no way to expunge the experience from anyone’s memory, or to ignore the obvious: In lieu of a do-over, the line needed a makeover.
To Chiefs coach Andy Reid, a former...
