Do we REALLY think Chiefs would trade for a guy with an MCL injury?
I’m pretty sure Veach made Rick Burkholder look into his current health situation before making the trade. Rick eventually gave Veach the nod to make the trade. [Reply]

Plus Hopkins won't be asked to be the number 1 guy. There are plenty of weapons for Mahomes to throw to - Kelce, Worthy, Brown (when he gets back for the playoffs), Gray, etc [Reply]

I wonder if JuJu's hammy is worse than we know - if it’s a many weeks injury - and they needed to scramble.
Hamstrings are the kind of injury you need real rest to recover from; otherwise there’s a real chance of re-aggravation. I expect he will be out a while. [Reply]
