Good thing I’m here to correct you, ya bloody fucking wanker. His name is Brad!

I feel like maybe they’re grooming him to be kelces replacement or backup. Not TE2. I’m hopeful Wiley can one day be TE1 but I like gray way better as TE2 if that makes sense. And fortson is a better option as TE3 because if you go into 13 personnel you want an exceptional run blocker. So in a weird way while he’s the guy whose upside I like most, I also don’t know that he has as much of a place just yet while kelce is on the field.
At the very least hopefully dhop helps us rely less on kelce so we can start load managing. Wiley could be a very nice option to do that the next 2 years

The Chiefs haven't re-signed Donovan Smith, who started last year, and Bakhtiari is a much better player.
The health question marks are obvious, but the Chiefs could handle Bakhtiari missing six or seven games if he's healthy enough to play from November on.
…
He also did an interview after being released saying he prefers to only come back once fully healthy and only if he feels he can perform at top level. In the same interview he talked about how he wants to win the “ring that’s been so elusive to him over his career”.
