#Chiefs Dave Toub says punter Tommy Townsend is doing well despite still being listed with a wrist injury.
“We have to put everything on the injury report.” 😅
Another difference in #Chiefs - Eagles from SBLVIII: No Juju Smith-Schuster for KC, who moved the chains 4 times in the 2nd half (plus the defensive holding)
Rashee Rice is now playing that role. If he can be as reliable catching the ball, he has a higher play-making ceiling
One thing different about #Chiefs - Eagles from SB LVIII is Philly missing Dallas Goedert this time around. He fractured his forearm v. Dallas
He made some incredible catches w/ KC in tight coverage. Both of these at important moments in 2nd half
Taco Bell, Olive Garden, Chipotle, and State Farm coming together today over Travis Kelce’s old tweets is hilarious. 😂

RIP to both Bud Grant and Dick Haley
Bad couple of days for the Old Guard.
I’ll bet Grant was Snowmobiling in shorts a few days ago. That guy WAS Minnesota.
Dolphins 🐬 picked up TUA 5th year option in 2024 is worth a guaranteed $23.2 million.

NFL rumors: Za’Darius Smith could shake free once again
Last year around this time, pass rusher Za’Darius Smith was a name thrown around again and again in Chiefs Kingdom. Multiple reporters linked the Chiefs with Smith as general manager Brett Veach looked for significant help to bolster the team’s edge rushing capabilities. In fact, some reporters noted the Chiefs’ definite interest and it felt like a move was coming.

Ex-NFL executive Mike Tannenbaum wouldn’t be surprised to see Orlando Brown Jr. back with Chiefs
And I wouldn’t be surprised if Orlando Brown came back, but I think this will be the way to try to get a deal done in the most obvious way possible.”
