Chiefs Newcomer Admits Andy Reid’s Blunt Message Convinced Him to Sign | Heavy
“It was kind of the same message when I chose Notre Dame over Purdue. Purdue was like: ‘You’ll come in here and you’ll play right away.’ Notre Dame was like: ‘Hey, you’re going to have to earn your way.’ If I’ve learned anything in my story, it’s when I surround myself with people who are as good — or better than — I am, I always end up coming out better on the other end.”
Chiefs’ Travis Kelce Gets Disrespected by Steelers Rookie | Heavy

Mahomes trivia for #ChiefsKingdom :
-Who are the only 2 NFL teams with a winning record against Mahomes (Regular+Post)?
-Who are the 4 teams with a .500 record against Mahomes?
-Who are the two teams Mahomes has not beaten?
As for where this goes next, I'd say the price will dictate that. Under current circumstances, unlikely KC or Buffalo go get him. If his price drops (both teams offered incentive-heavy deals), then ... maybe.
(Both KC and Buffalo talked directly to Hopkins, and liked him.)
🏈 More on @DeAndreHopkins 🏈
• The Chiefs and Bills were the only teams to have substantive trade talks with Arizona.
• As was the case with Kansas City, contract was the issue for Buffalo.
• KC made progress, but @OBJ's deal ($15M base) more or less blew that progress up.

1 day until OTA’s. I hope this brings us some Chiefs news
so when the Chiefs are LOSING by 10 pts (or more) there’s a greater chance of the team WINNING (.583) than LOSING
