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.
Local Chiefs Reporters:
Ultimately this will most likely make the Thursday night games even less competitive and boring because teams will struggle to deal with the short weeks and overall weirdness of not only playing on Thursdays but also being flexed to do so.

Former NFL Running Back Sentenced To At Least 12 Years In Prison…
..
Eric Wilkerson (former Steeler) sentenced the 56-year-old to 12 to 17 and-a-half years of prison. According to police, Wilkerson followed Brian Weems III into his apartment’s bathroom and stabbed him repeatedly after an argument. He allegedly fled the scene of the crime.
..
..
Wilkerson pleaded guilty to amended charges of involuntary manslaughter and tampering with evidence in relation to a fatal stabbing. He was indicted in 2022, but six of those charges — including aggravated murder — were dropped Monday.
I wonder if CEH is tradeable? He is in the last year of a rookie deal not sure what we could get out of him maybe a late-round draft pick.
sure chiefs have been trying to trade the TIN MAN – who wants his $3.5 million contract? Chiefs could cut him but Chiefs would take a $2.5 cap hit………might as well keep his azz on the team……as a 3rd string RB.
Hope the find a sucker nfl team to trade him to….Chiefs will be lucky to get a 7th round pick …….but he’ll probably be on roster this year.
Let this sink in……..
TIN MAN will make more than #10/POP and #1/mckinnon this year – combined salaries.

What It Is 🙂

Using the drop down menu (some people are too stupid to do this, longish story), looks like we could save 2 mill by trading him. 1.4 in dead cap from his initial bonus.
2025 7th rounder?
