Kansas City Chiefs
Chiefs headlines for Wednesday, March 26
Kansas City Chiefs: Even though Patrick Mahomes and Andy Reid are perennial locks to make noise in January, their lofty 2024 win total proved misleading on the biggest stage, where they were thoroughly and historically embarrassed by the Eagles. Since that loss, in which Mahomes had precious little space to operate, the Chiefs retained Trey Smith but also jettisoned their most accomplished interior blocker in Joe Thuney. Can Steve Spagnuolo’s defense...

There’s a lot to like about this athletic, disruptive player.
Draft season has arrived!
Let’s begin our evaluations of 2025 prospects by considering one of the Kansas City Chiefs’ biggest needs: defensive tackle.
With Tershawn Wharton and Derrick Nnadi leaving in free agency, Chris Jones entering his 30s and Mike Pennel being only a short-term solution, Kansas City finds itself thin at the position. So the team probably intends to add some young, blue-chip talent in the draft.
If it are looking for a high-ceiling player who doesn’t have to play immediately, Oregon defensive tackle Derrick Harmon offers one of...

The Chiefs’ franchise-tagged guard spoke with host Kay Adams on Monday.
With the legwork of free agency largely completed for the Kansas City Chiefs, the most pressing roster issue remaining is the status of star right guard Trey Smith. The Chiefs opened the offseason by unexpectedly giving Smith the franchise tag (at a one-year salary of $23.4 million). Smith officially signed the offer on March 10.
Smith joined host Kay Adams on Monday’s episode of “The Up and Adams Show” on FanDuel Sports Network. Speaking from a workout in Frisco, Texas, Smith seemed more concerned about hosting an upcoming youth...

One of just two active players on this list, Mahomes is more than deserving of his top-10 position. The 29-year-old is already a two-time league and three-time Super Bowl MVP. He has an astonishing 106-27 record as the Chiefs’ starting quarterback that includes a 17-4 postseason mark. Mahomes’ five Super Bowl starts is tied with John Elway for the second-most in history.

In his latest mock, Michael Middlehurst-Schwartz sends Ole Miss prospect Walter Nolen to Kansas City.
On Monday, USA Today’s Michael Middlehurst-Schwartz published his second mock draft, which sent a defensive tackle to the Kansas City Chiefs with the 31st pick of the first round.
31. Kansas City Chiefs: DT Walter Nolen, Mississippi
Further investment in the offensive line can’t be entirely ruled out here, but trading Joe Thuney to the Bears and ponying up big for Jaylon Moore might wrap up the team’s offseason plan of drastic action for its biggest vulnerability. Dropping Nolen in next to...

“The Beast” is returning for the 2025 NFL season.
On Monday, the Kansas City Chiefs announced the return of defensive tackle Mike Pennel via their official X account.
Pennel, 33, entered the league as an undrafted free agent out of CSU Pueblo following the conclusion of the 2014 NFL Draft. The 6-foot-4, 330-pound defensive tackle was a key addition for the Chiefs midway through the 2019 season as the team defeated the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl LIV.
Pennel left the club in 2021 to join the Chicago Bears, and he bounced from the Bears to the Atlanta Falcons...

Seth Rollins Compares John Cena To The Kansas City Chiefs | Fightful News
Appearing on the Rich Eisen Show, Seth Rollins was asked who in WWE was comparable to the Chiefs run.
“John Cena is the perfect example. He’s a guy who recently turned heel for the first time in a long time, but John is the perfect example. He would win so much, they would just boo him. ‘We want Cena.’ ‘Cena sucks,’” said Rollins.

Could Kansas City evolve into the kind of offensive scheme with which Detroit has been so successful?
Every three or four years, NFL personnel, schemes and coaching staffs change — so teams must be able to adapt to how football is now being played around the league.
We’ve seen this with the Kansas City Chiefs. When quarterback Patrick Mahomes took over in 2018, the team built its offense around speed at wide receiver — and Mahomes’ ability to throw downfield. The Chiefs were consistently getting five players out on routes while offensive tackles were on islands, focused on pass protection....

Kansas City long snapper James Winchester is entering his 11th season with the team.
For over a decade, Kansas City Chiefs’ long snapper James Winchester has been a model of consistency. As he enters his 11th NFL season — all of it Kansas City — Winchester still finds himself in awe of his journey.
“I would have called you crazy if you would have said I would be going into Year 11, having had the opportunity to play in five Super Bowls and be a part of three championships,” Winchester told the media during a Zoom press availability on Thursday....

Back for 2025, the veteran running back is focused on winning a Super Bowl with Kansas City.
When running back Kareem Hunt returned to the Kansas City Chiefs in 2024, the season didn’t end quite the way he wanted. Reaching (and winning) a Super Bowl was a big part of why he wanted to come back; he wanted another crack at bringing the whole thing home.
Now he’ll get another chance, as the team has re-signed the 29-year-old to a one-year contract last week. Despite the championship loss, Hunt still loves playing for the Chiefs.
“The culture is just great,”...
